Today, we are delighted to introduce you to Zurich-based artist Lb Honne. Lb Honne is renowned for his exceptional talent and as one of the driving forces behind the beloved Project Indigo collective and Vorgott record label.

With a musical journey encompassing the release of the beautiful 'a move' long player and the creation of awe-inspiring remixes, including recent outstanding work for Ben Kaczor, Lb Honne has firmly established himself as an artist to watch.

In this exclusive mix, Lb Honne treats us to a hybrid set, skillfully weaving together unreleased gems with carefully selected fragments from his extensive record collection. The resulting journey is steeped in the essence of a dark and pulsating dancefloor. Thick, thumping grooves intersect with mesmerizing, trippy sequences, crafting a compelling narrative that demands your full attention.

Throughout the mix, he effortlessly transitions between minimalistic and stripped-down moments while diving into hypnotic and melodic passages. With every beat and melody, Lb Honne ensures there is never a dull moment, creating a trip designed to thrive on a powerful sound system.

Delayed with... Lb Honne

Lb Honne's 'Homage to Daylight' is woven with unsettling beauty, evoking the spirit of David Lynch's Blue Velvet. Warm, sustained analog pads wash over the listener, thick and melancholic like the Louisiana air itself. A lush, throbbing breakbeat pulses beneath, mirroring the hidden tension lurking beneath the veneer of Lynch's idyllic suburban setting. A poignant vocal sample adds a raw vulnerability, redolent of Sandy's fragile innocence amidst the encroaching darkness.

Halfway down the road, the bright and uplifting arpeggio slices through the melancholic haze like a burst of sunshine after a long and dreary day. It leaves the listener hopeful and optimistic, wondering if it's the dawn breaking and a promise of a brighter tomorrow. 

“Homage to Daylight” is part of Lb Honne's upcoming "present future / here there" LP, out on April 15 via Project Indigo.

Premiere: Lb Honne - Viaggio

The dog days of summer are upon us here in Brooklyn, as the heat is making itself known. To match these sultry afternoons and nights, we look to Pango aka Pascal Bauer and the Zurich based collective, Project Indigo for the perfect musical companion. The four track EP titled, ‘Ahlea’ includes a nice variation of tracks that shows off Pango’s adeptness at creating emotive moments through a few different means. From the breakish ‘if you were’, fast-paced ‘foppettas’ through to the deep grooves of the title track ahlea, and in turn our premiere for today, namesake.

From the get go, Pango establishes a melodic introduction that sets the mood for what's to come — a journey into deep, soulful vibes. The swirling pads tugging at the heartstrings, bringing all the warmth and good feelings. Throughout the track these elements weave in and out, accompanied by a swinging percussion line, and a steady 4/4 kick that innately will keep your head nodding along. 

Namesake and the rest of the ‘ahlea’ release will be out on Project Indigo the 12th of July.

July 12th, 2024

✨"Foppettas" by Pango is a deep house ambient track that envelops the listener in a soothing yet rhythmically engaging atmosphere. The track features a steady, deep bassline that provides a solid foundation, complemented by soft, ethereal synths and vocals that create an expansive soundscape. Gentle percussive elements, such as light hi-hats and subtle snare hits, add texture without overwhelming the serene ambiance.

✨"Foppettas" is part of Pango's new Ahlea release, coming out on Project Indigo, a collective from Zürich that excels in crafting emotive and intricate melodies that resonate with listeners, adding a compelling emotional layer to their music.

11th Transition: TREN [LIVE]

Deeply emotive and engaging, the collaboration between Swiss collective Project Indigo and Hame feels destined. It wasn’t a matter of "if," but "when." The EP Self Expression will be released on December 27th, available in both digital and vinyl formats.

The final track, Stick Together, showcases Hame’s natural ability to pull on the heartstrings. With warm pads and recurring hooks, each layered with rich bass and presence, the track takes us from deep contemplation to an irresistible urge to dance—swaying side to side for one last dance as the EP comes to a close. Elegant, deep, minimal house music.

Hame and Project Indigo are meant to be. Their partnership reflects a shared vision, and we believe there is more to come from them together.

Self Expression

PREMIERE: Hame - Stick Together [Project Indigo]

This week on “Delayed with…”, we’re featuring matsssiii, a Zurich-based DJ and one of the core members of the Project Indigo collective and label. Project Indigo isn’t just another name in the scene—it’s a group we’ve grown to know and respect, built on shared nights (and days) on the dancefloor and a commitment to music that prioritizes feeling and quality over fleeting trends.
matsssiii’s mix has a rare versatility, fitting seamlessly into all kinds of settings. It’s deep and well-paced, with a lightness that never drifts into the shallow. Somehow, it strikes that perfect balance—grounded yet weightless, soothing yet never dull. Whether zoning in on a task or gazing at a sunset, this mix feels like it was made for the moment.
The music unfolds like a quiet narrative, with grooves that pull you in and atmospheric layers that let your mind wander. The rhythms feel tactile and earthy, while the melodies have a spacious, dreamlike quality that’s hard to pin down. It’s the kind of sound that doesn’t just accompany your day—it subtly transforms it.
At Delayed, this is exactly what we look for: music that lingers in your mind, carrying its energy well beyond the final track. It’s a deep, dubby house that feels timeless—not because it’s chasing permanence, but because it’s rooted in something genuine.
