đWhere it goes, nobody knows⌠Delirious is launching its record label with the debut EP from @shakolin â Destination (Unknown). A long-time resident of Kyivâs Closer club, now Berlin-based, co-curator of the Delirious party series at Panorama Bar, and now a record label too, he is sharing his inner frequencies.
Two tracks, made in Kyiv some years ago, have stood the test of time, joined by a more recent cut built around a sampled 80s childrenâs educational toy, and rounded off with a remix by one of Shakolinâs musical heroes, @finlowcarl (aka Random Factor). As Carl himself said: âIt sounds VERY Random Factor! Itâs 4/4, very synthy, but also tight and funky.â
Limited to 300 copies. Vinyl only. No repress.
Release date: November 2025
đżArtwork in collab with @path_mode , inspired by the mysticism of pagan-era monuments of Ukrainian lands
đ¨đťâđŹMastering by @analogcutmastering
đDistribution by @otgdistribution
Tonight in Brussels for @horstartsandmusic festival â¨
Playing at the stage curated by two favorite radio stations @kiosk.radio x @thelotradio âŚItâll also be live-streamed, so tune in from 22:30 (Brussels time).
Introducing Shakolin. A longtime resident DJ of Closer in Kyiv. Since his relocation to Berlin, he has opened a new chapter in his sonic journey with Delirious, a vinyl only record label and party series, which he co curates with his artistic and life partner, Karine. After decades of digging, sleepless nights on discogs and running one of the finest underground record stores, his meticulous approach to DJing and production has made him one of the standout artists to emerge from the Ukrainian scene and now widely recognised worldwide. Catch Shakolin on the road this May.

A few pages from an interesting book I picked up - Delirious New York - alongside a photo of @_______karine_______ and me during my first US tour in 2018.
Feels good to be back again. Weâre bringing @delirious_______ to New York in about two weeks, and playing at @thelotradio with dear XDB @kostaxdb
We are Brooklyn, baby, this is how we get down âĄď¸
Art Of Living (Masterclass) đď¸ Had a super productive past couple of weeks. Made a lot of new music, (found time for this little beauty photo dump), and finished my first remix for Oslo-based artist @rub800 - an artist whose records I personally play and admire. This is just a little teaser, more info coming soon (check slide 2)
And if youâre coming to Sonnenraum tomorrow morning from 7â10 AM, youâll definitely hear this dubplate and many more, during our b2b w @_______karine_______
Thanks as always to the @yuri404_ for the great quality and super fast work :) đâşď¸
SchĂśnes Wochenende everybody!
âYou can cut all your hair, I donât think they care in New Yorkâ đ The Delirious duo, Karine & Shakolin, share a long-standing connection with the city. After a visit to Signal in Brooklyn last year, the experience felt like home, on and off the dance floor⌠and here we go: Delirious lands in the big city for the first time.
For this special night, they are joined by @kostaxdb , traveling from Germany - an artist with a true DJ spirit and a deeply inspiring figure for dancers and selectors alike.
Also on the lineup is elusive New Yorker @brchn With decades of experience and a deep record bag, and no digital footprint, his sets canât be found online - you can only experience them in the moment, on the dance floor.
Bridging the connection between Delirious and Signal, club residents @kurilo_ and @buhler_buhler_ open the night with an extended b2b set.
Tickets on RA
