Delphic Iris presents Machine Dreams — a vinyl release night and exploration of machine-driven music. ▇▆▅▄▃▂ Expect hardware live sets from Insomniast and Lai Raw, alongside DJ performances from Berlin-based artists, accompanied by CRT visuals and a limited edition Vinyl pop-up store with bespoke cocktails. Rooted in the tactile, physical energy of machine-led sound, the night moves through UK bass, electro, deep techno, and emotionally charged, moody atmospheres—bridging sounds shaped by scenes in Bristol, London, and Berlin, and echoing the spirit of DIY labels and communities orbiting contemporary bass and electro scenes. The evening celebrates "First Light" and "Circuit Riders" EPs out now on Delphic Iris Records, with limited edition vinyl available to purchase. The Releases ░▒▓█▇▆▅▄▃▂ Insomniast — First Light EP A hazy, euphoric journey through post-rave morning light—blending UK bass, broken rhythms, and warm, emotive textures. Drawing from Bristol’s lineage of low-end experimentation, the record channels that city’s unmistakable energy into a deeply personal after-hours narrative. SGT — Circuit Riders EP A stripped-back, sinister electro debut—driven by raw circuitry, acid lines, and precise, system-focused sound design. Shaped between Chile’s DIY underground and Berlin’s club infrastructure, the EP reflects a sound informed by spaces like Tresor and the wider electro continuum. The Lineup ░▒▓█▇▆▅▄▃▂ Insomniast *ੈ✩‧₊˚༺☆༻ Berlin-based, Bristol-influenced producer, DJ and live act crafting emotive, low-end driven music that moves between rave intensity and hazy afterglow. His bass-heavy, genre-fluid sound draws on jungle, UK bass and soundsystem culture, with releases on Yuku, Ommaya, Posse Up!, Raiders Records, Club Designs and W133, and support from artists such as Sherelle and Pangaea. SGT*ੈ✩‧₊˚༺☆༻ Chilean-born, Berlin-based DJ and producer delivering raw, functional electro informed by DIY roots and refined on some of the city’s most iconic systems. His debut EP on Delphic Iris marks his first label release, with more self-released material to follow this year. 16 Faces *ੈ✩‧₊˚༺☆༻ Co-owner of Delphic Iris Records, 16 Faces explores experimental, percussive sound worlds shaped by the weird corners of ambient electronics, IDM and UK bass. Recently featured on Martyn’s 3024 label compilation and contributing a remix to Insomniast’s latest Delphic Iris EP, he is also the host of Feed & Feedback in collaboration with Dub & Dal—a production community focused on sharing techniques and fostering creative exchange. Lai Raw *ੈ✩‧₊˚༺☆༻ A globally seasoned artist driven by constant cultural exploration, Lai Raw blends breakbeats, house, techno and electro into a dynamic hardware live set. From his roots in southern Spain to London’s beat scene and Berlin’s experimental circuits—where he co-founded CURA Berlin—his sound is defined by rhythmic fluidity and a deeply hands-on approach. His live performances, already tested across international stages, channel that restless evolution into fully realised club energy. Genoe *ੈ✩‧₊˚༺☆༻ Berlin-based, Moabit native, DJ navigating the fringes of bass music and post dubstep with emotionally driven selections rooted in sound system culture. As part of Angel Audio, she recently contributed to the design and build of Femme Bass Mafia’s soundsystem—bringing a strong DIY ethos and tactile understanding of sound into her sets.
