In the latest edition of our Delayed with… series, we feature Ksenia Kamikaza, the founder of Under Fest and Platz Für Tanz label, a key figure in Latvia’s underground music scene. We first crossed paths with Ksenia a few years back in Barcelona, which she now calls home. As a DJ and producer, her deep knowledge of electronic music comes through in every set, blending together a wide range of styles and influences. For this mix, Ksenia drew inspiration from the late David Lynch, exploring themes of life and death. Much like Mulholland Drive, where Lynch blurs the lines between dreams and reality, Ksenia’s mix pulls you into familiar territory before pulling the rug out from under you. She opens with Röyksopp’s beautifully haunting vocal track - We Remain Hidden / Consolation, creating a sense of calm and ease. But that comfort is fleeting. The beats start to fracture, melodies twist, and suddenly you find yourself swept into an unpredictable flow of shifting moods and subtle misdirection. This isn’t a straightforward journey from one sound to the next—it’s more like a Möbius strip, looping back on itself in unexpected ways. Just when you think you’ve settled into a groove, the rhythm shifts, leaving you wondering if the high point you hit was the climax—or just a prelude to something else entirely. Ksenia’s mix is layered, unpredictable, and keeps you guessing until the very end.
