VARIOUS — Delirium, Vol. IV (2x12")

Various – Delirium, Vol. IV is the latest 2x12-inch offering from TRSN (Transition), catalogued as TRSN050. Arriving on green transparent vinyl, the compilation continues the label’s commitment to forward-thinking techno, delivering a twelve-track journey that balances kinetic drive with atmospheric depth. Within the TRSN catalogue, Delirium, Vol. IV follows the earlier “Delirium, Vol. III (Lp 2x12”)” (TRSN037, 2025) and the three-disc “Delirium, Vol. II (LP 3x12”)” (TRSN025, 2024), extending the series’ reputation for curating diverse, club-ready selections. It also arrives after “Akin To Analog” by Blame The Mono (TRSN048, 2026) and “Human In The Loop” by Sera J (TRSN047, 2026), while preceding the forthcoming “Invisible Borders” by Slv (TRSN053, 2026). This placement highlights the series as a steady thread through a year of prolific output on the imprint. Side A opens with Exos’ “In The South”, a track that sets a deep, rolling foundation, followed by Sept’s “Notice That Breathing”, which adds a breathy, syncopated pulse that keeps the momentum moving. The side closes with Sons Of Hidden’s “Bodies Out”, a darker cut that introduces a subtle tension before the record flips. Side B begins with Vilchezz’s “Parhelion”, a shimmering piece that lifts the mood, then shifts into Habgud’s “Deviation”, a track that tightens the groove with a focused rhythmic pattern. The final cut of the side, No Valentina’s “They’ve Always Been Here”, offers a reflective atmosphere that bridges the more kinetic B-side to the forthcoming C-side. On side C, Beau Didier’s “South Africa” brings a warm, expansive feel, while Dj Dextro’s “The H Inside Me” injects a sharper, percussive edge that propels the set forward. Remco Beekwilder’s “Looping Motif” rounds out the side with a hypnotic repetition that prepares the listener for the record’s concluding statements. Side D closes the compilation with DJ Hörde’s “With U”, a track that combines a subtle drive with an emotive undercurrent, followed by Funkhaus’s “Lumen”, which brightens the palette with a luminous groove. The final track, Kaltblume’s “Haze”, drifts into a hazy, late-night ambience, offering a smooth exit from the set’s energetic arc. Delirium, Vol. IV sits comfortably within the series’ evolution, reinforcing TRSN’s reputation for assembling forward-looking techno that works equally well on the dancefloor and in the listening room. The selection showcases a range of producers who each contribute a distinct tonal shade while adhering to the label’s aesthetic of precise, kinetic sound design. For DJs, the record provides a toolkit of tracks that can be mixed from deep, rolling beginnings to more peak-time moments, with each side offering a logical progression for building tension and release. Collectors will appreciate the cohesive curation and the tactile appeal of the green transparent vinyl, which adds a visual cue to the auditory experience. The release is presented as a 2x12-inch vinyl set, catalogued TRSN050, featuring twelve tracks that span the techno spectrum. It continues the Delirium series’ tradition of delivering fresh perspectives on the genre while reinforcing TRSN’s position as a hub for cutting-edge electronic music. Tracklist: A1.
