This week’s cutting-edge beats in our Rhythmic Culture podcast are served up by no other than Black Cadmium. The duo hailing from Rotterdam recently released on Violet’s naive label and appeared on Carista’s highly acclaimed United Identities compilation ‘Modern Intimacy Volume 1’.

Heavily influenced by the London-Detroit connection, their mix is full of brain frying cuts that all have one thing in common: they will ignite your inner flame.

The Ransom Note Dispatch on Netil Radio (April 2021)

The situation was critical, the information rogue. It was time to recall everything he thought he'd known about his reality, every creative association and delusion was a mystery and not one worth resolving. Instead he would now choose to lose himself in the darkness of the night, wandering between the trees, amidst their towering might and wise presence. He found himself at home in the forest, it was here in which his imagination could run wild and free without the constraints of others. A total recall into isolation and the abyss. 

Lord Of The Isles has announced the release of a stunning new collection of tracks on his own recently launched new imprint, Dusk Delay. The record features long form ambient excursions which leave the listener lost in a magical place. This track "Recall" is a favourite.

A relict of the past - a night at Kassablanca 2007. Presenting even more reminiscent house records at a time when the sound was nowhere else to be heard in Thuringia. Two legendary artists featured in the mix have died since then. RIP, Gabi Delgado and Elbee Bad! Your spirit will live on!

The aptly named ‘Upcycling’ is back with a fresh set of remixes taking contributions from Manami, Suze, Surgeons Girl, Outsider and Yushh. Delay Grounds wanted to take a slightly different approach to the process by giving each producer a single sonic element from each of the original tracks - taken from his field recordings - and allowing each to craft entirely new songs with their respective elements, hence: ‘Upcycling Rebuilt’.
