Undeniably one of my biggest inspirations, the ever-talented @kondukukonduku presents a mix in his signature style, a unique soundscape of charming rhythms and melodies.

I've been a big fan of the Konduku ever since his debut album, Kiran, on @nousklaeraudio in 2018. Since then, Ruben has released an impressive and diverse catalogue on labels such as Spazio Disposable, Delsin & Idle Hands, often drawing on his Turkish heritage.

Beyond his incredible productions, Konduku is known for long, mind melting and crafty DJ sets & mixes. His closing set at De School for ADE in 2019 was one of my favourite DJ sets to date!

Thank you so much for putting this one together Ruben!

Venue: Naeba Greenland, Gunma, Japan.

-----

To celebrate 20 years of building Labyrinths, we have decided to release one set from each of the last ten years. I've chosen ten timeless moments that both document the history of the event and provide a historical snapshot of underground electronic music over the past ten years.

We have chosen a broad range--from closing techno sets, to morning ambient sets, to experimental sets to close the night. Each set represents a different side of the event. Taken together, they present a portrait of a decade of music.

The Labyrinthの20周年を記念して、過去10年間を振り返り、それぞれの年からひとつのミックスをピックアップすることにしました。イベントの歴史を記録すると同時に、過去10年間のアンダーグラウンドエレクトロニックミュージックの歴史的なスナップショットを提供します。今聞いても色褪せない、タイムレスな極上のミックスをお楽しみください。

テクノのクロージングセットから、朝のアンビエントセット、そして夜を締めくくるエクスペリメンタルセットまで幅広いセレクトですが、どのセットもThe Labyrinthの欠かせない側面を表しており、ここ10年におけるエレクトロニック ミュージックの全容とも言えるでしょう。

Eric Cloutier - Strange Signals Pt.1

The light and dark, the fast and slow, the loud and quiet - one cannot exist without the other and opposing qualities, in balance, each bring out the best in life - and often also in music. Berlin-based artist Mareena embodies this interplay perfectly. May it be through her well-built Techno DJ Sets in Clubs all over the world or as Podcast host and Label Owner of the always calming and ever-giving UNRUSH series - Mareena understood the integration of this dualism like few other artists nowadays. A catch-up between Delayed and her was long overdue and our discussion expanded from the 90’ies, over timeless music to the challenges of the life of an artist these days.

This is what Mareena said about the mix:
'I had a lot of ideas for a calm mix. I ended up with a dub techno mix. A genre that is sticking with me since my beginnings. I can't get tired of chords and delays. Since your platform is called “Delayed” it seemed just appropriate ;) The mix is recorded between 115 – 120 BPM. I wanted to create something more chill. A mix you listen to while cooking, having friends over or wandering around the streets. My idea was a deeper psychedelic vibe rather than the usual dance floor music.'

interview + tracklist

Delayed with... Mareena

"Pure happiness in a club full to the brim. Everyone is committed, bearing the pulse in unison. Caught inside the cave where no one wants to leave, where everyone wants to enter. Thank you for these moments of disconnection, of not thinking about anything but the music, and of transforming it into positive energy. Welcome to HOC 03."

A self-described "record digging psychopath," Eric Cloutier’s (@cloutier) standards are representative of the pre-social media craze and arguably the old adage of letting music speak for itself. Cloutier’s twenty-plus year commitment has been built upon his integrity as a DJ and authority as a selector. His reputation as an unequivocal, dexterous force is increasingly becoming one of note. He’s a DJ for whom quality - above all else - is the watchword. In addition, he is also the owner of the Palinoia record label (https://palinoiarecords.bandcamp.com).

HOCast #136 - Eric Cloutier

Clear as spring water, the memory of Shoal's beautiful live set echoing through the Norwegian mountains, finally sharing the stage together at Monument (@monument-podcast) after meeting in Amsterdam several years ago. Those familiar with our dear friends at Harmony Rec (@harmony-rec) will be undoubtedly familiar with Kenny's impeccable body of work, and for the rest an eye-opening treat awaits. Here, Kenny gathers highlights from his recent live sets and newly recorded material, arranged and refined into a perfect contemplation of the crisp arboreal air, a vivid composition of body and sound entwined tightly beneath the earth. Thanks Kenny!

New Nous’klaer Radio by @VanAnh. Amsterdam based purveyor of smart atmospheric leftfield techno, as a means to bring people together. Her amazing @Isotoop parties being the tangible result of that endeavour - with a first festival (Under The Desert Stars) in Morocco last summer. We’re thrilled to present Van Anh’s podcast for Nous’klaer here.

Nous'klaer Radio #23 - Van Anh

New Nous'klaer Radio by dear friend @Mattikk! As one of the hidden gems of the Dutch techno scene, he knows how to build a hypnotic groove like no other. If it weren't for the lockdown he would have joined us on Nous'klaer label parties this time of the year, luckily we can now at least share this mix. He'll be curating a newly launched @DelsinRecords sublabel called Mantis (links below), lots of those forthcoming bits of that included in the mix. Big thanks to Thijs!
