Sarah Wreath has spent years moving through different corners of electronic music, sharpening her craft in deliberate yet effortless ways. Ambient, sound baths, live sets, techno, halftime—she doesn't just dabble; she inhabits these spaces fully, shaping them with a deep understanding of sound and rhythm. Her range is what sets her apart, allowing her to move between intimate, meditative settings and full-throttle dance floors without missing a step. Last year was a big one. Her debut album on The Bunker NY hit the right people in the right way, opening doors that led to a standout set at The Bunker party in Brooklyn alongside Nobu, Patrick Russell, and Doltz, a tour through Japan, and a string of upcoming EPs—including one for the legendary Sandwell District, set to drop in just a few weeks. This time last year, we featured Sarah in our Sundays Are For… series with a beautifully haunting set. Today, she flips the perspective. Her Delayed with… mix isn't just about atmosphere—it's about movement. The sound is weighty but fluid, shifting between tightly wound rhythms and wide-open space. There's a physicality to it, driven by thick, rolling low-end and textures that hover between sharp and submerged. It's techno built for full immersion, the kind that keeps pulling you in without ever demanding too much. Sarah Wreath is one of those artists who make techno feel limitless. And if this mix is any indication, she's only just getting started. https://soundcloud.com/sarahwreath https://www.instagram.com/sarahhwreath Text by @gilleswasserman Follow us on social media: https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayed https://linktr.ee/delayed https://www.delayed.nyc https://www.facebook.com/itsdelayed https://www.instagram.com/_____delayed https://www.youtube.com/@_____delayed Contact us: info@delayed.nyc

The ronin stood in horror as the creature wailed from beneath the well. Seppun Azusa called a meeting to discuss their next steps.As Boa, Tsume, and Kaizoku thought of a plan, they noticed the ronin hired to protect the castle beginning to gather their things and leave. Their work had been steady and well paying, but with Masaru and Nobu imprisoned and with a new threat lingering beneath the castle, the ronin didn't want to risk their lives for a lord who might not have the means to pay them. Surprised by their shortsightedness, Boa reasoned with the ronin, reminding them that their strength was in numbers, and that Lord Jikai would surely reward them handsomely for their service to his castle. In total, 9 ronin decided to stay while the rest fled.The ronin sat in audience with Seppun Azusa and Lord Jikai's court. Dzudh, the wandering monk from the north, gave advice on how to defeat the kyokotsu. He said that attacks which would kill a human would merely stun it. He advised wearing the creature down with an assault of attacks, and then when it's vulnerable, conduct a cleansing ritual to destroy it once and for all. With Tetsuya dead, they needed to find a different shugenja to perform the ritual. They suggested sending Setsuo back to Twin Blessings Village and asking if Daizo would be able to conduct the ritual instead. They also decided that while he was there, he should convince the rebels to back down and see if any of them would be willing to help defeat the monster. With these things in motion, the ronin concocted a plan...Kaizoku and Tsume searched the hillside for an entrance into the underground water system which the well was connected to. They found a wide opening with high ridges on either side of the waterway: a perfect location to set a trap. Tsume then followed the cave system and carefully mapped a course to the well beneath the castle. Meanwhile, Boa led a team of servants cutting wood. Dzudh marked an inscription into these wood panels, and then with help from Boa and the servants, placed the wood panels in the stream bed, blessing the water.The next day Kaizoku and Tsume stocked up on supplies while Boa butchered meat to use as bait for the monster. That night, Setsuo arrived from Twin Blessings Village with the priest, Daizo. He had agreed to perform the Cleansing Rite, but they were unable to persuade anyone else to join the cause. It appeared the rebels were still planning to attack the castle. There was no going back then. The ronin had to defeat the kyokotsu, or else a terrible battle would needlessly claim the lives of dozens.The following day, they unleashed their trap. Tsume, Azusa, and Ume planted the meat on a course to lure the creature into the open. Boa stood at the mouth of the cave with a team of ronin and Kaizoku stood on the ridge with a team of archers. Slowly, the kyokotsu came shambling into the open.With the monster disoriented, they attacked. A barrage of attacks from all sides wore the creature down, and they outnumbered it 14 to 1, but it was a terrible foe nonetheless. Its aura radiated hatred and its wail splintered the soul. But with teamwork and tenacity, they defeated the monster. Soon, it collapsed from exhaustion. While in this vulnerable state, Daizo rushed out and performed the cleansing rite. The kyokotsu's remains turned to dust and it was vanquished for eternity.With the Kyokotsu defeated and Otomo Yuki's spirit finally laid to rest, peace was restored to the land. The water kami were pleased and blessed the people of Twin Blessings Village and Nestled Village with a plentiful harvest.Satisfied with the water kami's blessing, the rebels ended their plotting against Closed Shell Castle and returned to their homes.Setsuo reclaimed his position as village head and repaired his relationship with his son, Ichiro.Reju Jikai recovered from his wounds and restored peace with the villagers with the brave and loyal Seppun Azusa at his side.Daizo was given a permanent position at Closed Shell Castle as well as all the ronin who decided to stay and defeat the monster-- not as swords for hire, but as noble samurai.Otomo Nobu and Reju Masaru were exposed for their treachery and executed with no chance for seppuku.Tsume became a sworn samurai in service of Lord Reju Jikai and moved his family into Closed Shell Castle. He gave up his life of grave robbing and treasure hunting in order to provide safety and security for his mom and siblings.Boa settled on a plot of land in Twin Blessings Village with his estranged son and his son's mother, intent on patching up that relationship and being the father he always should have been.Kaizoku was reunited with his ship, newly renovated by the people of Twin Blessings Village as thanks for all that he did. He set sail, continuing toward the horizon and letting the river take him wherever it pleased. Artwork by Dylon MunozMusic by Brandon Spain & Podcast of the Five Rings

In this episode, host Chris Maffeo talks to Andrew Borenzweig, founder of Beverly High Rye, who shares his journey of creating a modern, luxury-focused American whiskey that breaks away from traditional frontier or rustic imagery. Inspired by the elegance of Beverly Hills, Andrew crafted a whiskey that blends rye's bold spice with bourbon's smoothness, presented in sleek, decanter-style bottles. He initially concentrated on securing placements in prestigious California venues—such as Nobu, Mastro's, Cipriani, and the Beverly Wilshire Four Seasons—to build brand credibility and visibility. This strategic on-trade focus laid a strong foundation before carefully expanding into off-trade channels like select Pavilions stores. Throughout the episode, Andrew emphasizes the importance of brand authenticity, founder-led advocacy, and a California-centric rollout as key drivers of Beverly High Rye's success. Additionally, he touches on leveraging top on-trade outlet groups to facilitate potential international expansion, referencing Nobu Tokyo's interest in the brand.

A lesson in rhythm from a former De School resident. When it comes to minimalist dance music, Ruben Üvez, AKA Konduku, is one of the best in the game right now. With a masterful and ever-shapeshifting understanding of rhythm, the Berlin-based artist crafts sublime dance music with a staunchly leftfield bent. Don't just take our word for it: how many DJs, after all, can claim to have moved De School to a puddle of tears? Musically, Üvez is hard to pin down. He's often billed as a techno artist, but actually you'll find his sound sits outside of the genre's many conventions. With an outsider's curiosity, he leans into diverse moods, tempos and genres, though one throughline is always how he arranges his drums. Whether it be deep, Nobu-core techno such as 2023's Hayal EP or UK beat science á la Peverelist on 2019's Gegek, he leads with rhythm across his DJing and production. The end product is a hypnotic, one-of-a-kind sound that hits the body before the brain has time to catch up. In short, it slaps. As Üvez's RA Podcast demonstrates, he's got a serious knack for crafting and selecting tunes that can deeply captivate a dance floor. Clocking in at just over 90 minutes, RA.967 is an excursion through a timeless sound, packed with long, layered blends, flick-of-the-wrist transitions, locked grooves and spine-tingling atmospherics. In 2020, we called Ruben Üvez one of techno's brightest new talents. This mix sees him ascending to a seat at the top table. @kondukukonduku Read more at ra.co/podcast/967

This edition of The Bunker Podcast comes in the form of a peak time live set from Doltz, a label artist on DJ Nobu's Bitta imprint who will be performing live at The Bunker x Bitta party in Brooklyn on Friday November 29. When we asked Nobu who else he wanted to bring from the label for this showcase, he immediately suggested Doltz. Doltz started his musical career in 1998 as a drummer in a hardcore punk band, and had a fateful encounter with DJ Nobu, who shares the same musical roots, when they were billed alongside each other at a party in 2022. Impressed by Doltz's live performance, DJ Nobu immediately booked him for his residency party 'reprise' at Womb Tokyo. The two hit it off and began exchanging tracks, with DJ Nobu actively playing out Doltz's tracks while touring across the world and receiving a good response. Doltz's live set at The Bunker will be his US debut!

Munaf Manji and Steve Fezzik talk NFL Week 8 recap. Fezzik and Munaf also discuss NFL week 9 and Fezzik gives out a few best bets. In the podcast hosted by Munaf Manji with Steve Fezzik, the two delve into NFL Week 8's significant performances, player stats, and contest updates, alongside Week 9 insights and power ratings. Survivor Contest Update (1:46): Fezzik shares updates on the Circa Survivor, betting on the Lions, and mentions his sixth-place position in the Circa Invitational despite recent challenges. Scoring Trends & Kickoff Rule Impact (3:08): Manji notes an 11-4 over trend, attributing it to new kickoff rules that enable favorable field positioning. Fezzik agrees, observing that quarterbacks need several weeks to find rhythm due to the shorter preseason. Strategy Shift (4:38): Fezzik highlights a shift where teams increasingly opt for long passes on third downs, offering higher returns, which aligns with aggressive plays seen from quarterbacks like Russell Wilson. Player Analysis - Jameis Winston (6:31): Winston's impressive performance as a fill-in led to an upset over Baltimore. His efficient passing provided an unexpected offensive boost. Game Breakdowns & Phony Finals: Detroit vs. Tennessee: Despite a dominant score, the Lions benefited from exceptional special teams and field positioning rather than yardage. Atlanta vs. Tampa Bay: Although Tampa Bay led in yardage and first downs, they lost, indicating a misaligned scoreboard. Jets vs. New England: Fezzik describes New England's victory as misleading since the Jets outperformed statistically. Despite the Jets' 2-6 record, he rates them above-average but cites quarterback struggles. Chargers vs. New Orleans: Fezzik gives a slight upgrade to the Chargers after a well-rounded performance and identifies ongoing injury issues for New Orleans. Kansas City's Defensive Edge (14:21): Kansas City's defensive strength is emphasized, as the team's solid defense would position them as favorites with a more potent offense. Coaching & Analytics (16:40): Fezzik underscores the importance of analytics in coaching, criticizing teams that ignore optimal two-point conversion decisions. He advocates for hiring analytics experts to guide decisions and avoid old-fashioned tactics. Power Rating Adjustments (20:14): In Week 9, Cleveland's ranking sees a boost due to stronger quarterback play, while Dallas drops as defensive injuries expose vulnerabilities. Las Vegas Lifestyle Tips (22:06): Fezzik suggests Red Rock Canyon for scenic activities and recommends Mountains Edge Regional Park for a mix of sports facilities, providing family-friendly alternatives outside the typical Vegas experience. Dining in Vegas (26:42): Fezzik recommends Nobu's beef Wagyu tacos and spicy rock shrimp, advising listeners on budget-friendly ways to enjoy high-end Vegas dining. Fezzik concludes with a college football pick for Connecticut over Georgia State, citing favorable game conditions for Connecticut. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

#81. In this episode of the meez Podcast, Josh Sharkey sits down with PJ Calapa, Executive Chef of Marea in NY and Beverly Hills. Chef PJ Calapa's exposure to a broad range of cuisines and flavors began at an early age, having grown up in the Mexican border town of Brownsville, Texas. As a child, he joined his grandmother in the kitchen and later worked for his grandfather's wholesale fish business. Calapa continued to nurture his culinary passion during undergraduate studies at Texas A&M University, when he worked on the hot line at Christopher's World Grille. Calapa then moved to New York and enrolled at the Culinary Institute of America in Hyde Park. As a CIA graduate, Calapa worked with Josh at Bouley in Tribeca, Eleven Madison Park, and Nobu 57, where he started as a line cook and quickly rose through the ranks to become executive sous chef.In 2010, Calapa joined the Altamarea Group to launch Ai Fiori, which earned threestars from The New York Times, a Michelin star, and a 2013 Star Chefs Rising Star Chef Award. Calapa then opened as executive chef at Campagna at the Bedford Post Inn. In the summer of 2016, Calapa left the Altamarea Group to open two new projects of his own.

The three ronin had found their man: the runaway shugenja, Reju Tetsuya. They were ordered to bring Tetsuya back to Closed Shell Castle, but the shugenja refused. He vowed to never return. Tetsuya felt tremendous regret for what he had done. He had been used as a pawn in a plot hatched by the steward, Otomo Nobu, to kill Reju Jikai, defeat the bandits, and wrest control of the castle for himself. Nobu's plan was to upset the region's water kami, forcing a famine while simultaneously increasing taxation in order to send the peasants into a state of upheaval. All the while hunting the forests for its wildlife and selling the meat and pelts to pay for a small army of ronin which he would train and use to garrison the castle. When the peasants revolt, the ronin would destroy them, and in the maelstrom, Nobu would slink off and kill Jikai, his wife, and his niece, making it appear as though they had died in combat. As defender of the castle, he would be promoted from steward to lord. His first act would be to end the forced famine and lower the taxes, blaming those catastrophes on the policies of his predecessor. In the end, he would have ownership of the castle, the respect of his superiors, the love of the common people, and a small army at his disposal. Tetsuya's role in all of this was to keep the water kami agitated. When Jikai took power, Nobu threw the remains of the previous lord, Otomo Yuki, into the castle's well creating a kyokotsu, a malignant abomination which infects the water and angers the kami. Tetsuya fed the creature, appeasing it and making its power grow. He was promised wealth and power by Nobu when his plan was completed, and Tetsuya realized too late what he had done. The dishonored shugenja felt nothing but shame now, wasting away, drinking himself to death in a stable.Hearing this story, the ronin concocted a plan. They would bring Tetsuya back to Closed Shell Castle and force him to repeat his story to Jikai and Reju Masaru, exposing Nobu for the snake that he is.Upon arriving at the castle, the ronin were met by Masaru. He seemed surprised by their presence, and his usual adherence to decorum had waned a bit. It appeared as if he didn't expect that they would return from their mission. Masaru immediately sent a messenger off to inform Nobu of their arrival. The ronin protested, but he insisted. He then ushered them into his quarters so they could speak in more detail. Suspecting that Masaru was in on Nobu's plan, the ronin played along. They said nothing of Tetsuya's indictment or of Nobu's scheme. In celebration of their completed mission, the ronin convinced Masaru to have a round of sake. They spiked his drink with the night milk pilfered from the dead assassins, not once, but twice. Soon, Masaru was knocked unconscious. The ronin quickly searched his quarters and found evidence of his involvement in Nobu's scheme. Masaru, the one who welcomed the ronin into the castle, trained them, and guided them had been working with Nobu from the very beginning. The ronin swallowed the betrayal and moved forward with renewed vigor. Something about Nobu's plan felt personal now. Artwork by Dylon MunozMusic by Brandon Spain & Podcast of the Five Rings

Diddy returning his key to New York City, a graduation brawl in Los Angeles, and people dealing with ‘time blindness.' Lastly, Batya Ungar-Sargon joins the show to talk about America's working class, homelessness and her new book ‘Second Class: How the Elites Betrayed America's Working Men and Women.'
