Delayed

Cafe de la Jungle builds worlds through sound—dense, hypnotic, and alive with movement. Every track is a pulse, a shifting landscape where rhythm and texture collide, guided by Tomasz K Zajac’s instinct for the unexpected. His productions blur the line between the organic and the electronic, drawing from primal grooves, shamanic energy, and cutting-edge sound design. On Ginso, his latest release,...

With Mostra Festival just over a week away, we’re wrapping up our editorial run with a conversation and a mix from Peter Van Hoesen. His work has always sat slightly outside the frame: techno, ambient, experimental, but never quite typical of any. Instead of chasing momentum, he’s built a practice around attention to sound, to context, and to the possibilities of performance. At Mostra, he’ll step...

Forever evolving and progressing her sounds, Nadia Struiwigh’s ear and passion for coaxing out the best from her array of studio gear always results in tracks with a certain je ne sais quoi. Through emotionally charged ambient releases like Pax Aurora on Nous’klaer, or Birds of Paradise on Dekmantel, her artistic freedom is a key factor that provides a freshness to her music. Like the musical yin...

We’re two weeks away from Mostra 2025. Final prep is in full swing, and over here at Delayed, we’re marking the moment with a special one. A two-hour recording from ABSIS—Mostra resident, local legend, and someone who’s been quietly shaping his own corner of the scene for years. This one’s from Gare Porto, aka the Portuguese tunnel—one of those rare venues where the setting does half the work. ABS...

I recorded this mix sitting on the carpet of my partner and I's new home, pulling out some old records and enjoying the comfort of our new living room which now also houses my custom green monitors. Sundays to me have a naturally relaxed and positive vibe and it's the same day that I throw my event 'Park Dub'. The music at Park Dub is generally a mixture of electronic dub tracks and more rootsy du...

Time flies—what started as a platform to spotlight music we love has reached an incredible milestone: our 500th premiere. Over the years, we've witnessed trends emerge, evolve, and transform into something entirely new.

A pause, a spark, a fleeting ray, Where inspiration leads the way’ Fitting words to accompany Rene Lorenzo’s forthcoming album on Kizen Records, titled ‘A Good Moment’.

For its 25th release, Konstrukt brings us something special: a collaboration between Michal Wołski and Amandra that feels more like a late-night conversation between old friends than just another EP. This isn’t just about music but the moments behind it. Think cups of tea, gear scattered around a room, long chats that meander from the mundane to the profound, and the creative flow that only comes...

We’re really excited to share a premiere with you from a close friend of Delayed, someone we know and love - Hassan Siddiqui, or Âsan as he is known musically. Some of you may remember that he recorded the most beautiful & immersive 4 hour journey for us just over a year ago. He has accompanied us at our Delayed getaways in the Catskills & I actually first connected with him there in that same pla...

Trust is the secret ingredient that makes an event more than just a night out. Whether it’s a party or a festival, knowing that the people behind it are genuine music devotees changes everything. Mostra Festival has built that trust over time, and for a good reason—they’re music nerds through and through. For this week's mix on "Delayed with..." series, one of Mostra’s core members steps up to the...

Winter has a way of slowing things down. Certain comforts stand out in the quiet of these colder months—a warm drink in hand, the familiar weight of a well-worn sweater, and a mix that carries the depth and warmth of something tangible, something analog. That very sensation defines the work of our next guest in the “Delayed with…” series: Velvia, a multidisciplinary artist from Paris whose love fo...

The morning is a cold, cold one here in the Midwest. Snow falls in flurries and the wind whips through the streets. I’ve come back to see family and appreciate the good times that we’ve had together while a sense of loss lingers over all. Life does go on, and equally so, all the memories. Track List: Rhubiqs - Sleep // Forget (ft. robert farrugia) Eyerate - Push Pull Serge Geyzel - Primitive Struc...

We first crossed paths with Ksenia a few years back in Barcelona, which she now calls home.

Through overwhelming days and times of strife, an emphasis to look inwards and reflect seems appropriate. Outside stressors abound, almost at every turn it seems as the world claws at your mental stability. Italian producer, dj and more, Simone Gatto’s forthcoming Invisible Love album on his own Pregnant Void imprint marks a response to these negative forces. Giving space, soft moments of introspe...

You know that feeling when you find a good mix? That little hit of satisfaction, like, yeah, that was time well spent. But then there are the rare ones—the mixes that hit just right, that feel like stumbling upon a new friend you just know you’ll be spending a lot of time with. That’s exactly what happened when we heard the latest Delayed with… mix from Toxido Mask. Toxido has been on our radar fo...
