Ambient stuff

Welcome to episode #112 - Pattrn

Sonic experiments derived from syncopated rhythms, intricately crafted ambiences, and patiently evolving textures, Pattrn’s work as a producer is rooted to the perception of time and space. Playing violin since the age of four and later on majoring in both acousmatic music composition and sound engineering, Pattrn’s precision is the fruit of a lifelong dedication to music of all forms, from creation in itself or through his implications in Brussels’ scene. 

Beyond the years of technical know-how and self improvement in production, DJing, and live sets,  Brice Deloose aka Pattrn has been an active member of the local scene for quite some time. Co-creator of FTRSND, Brussels By Night Federation, @initiate_concept , as well as having been the artistic director of @fuse-club , Pattrn has spent much of his time promoting local artists and collectives to push forward Brussels' underground. 

Having shared the decks with the likes of @luke-slater , @luigitozzi , @claudioprc , @kangding-ray , @svrecaofficial , and many more, Pattrn uses his sets to impose his world of seamless hypnotic music to lure passionates for always one last dance.

Enjoy!

E.M.C. atmospheres #112 - Pattrn

My Sunday morning involves strong black coffee on an empty stomach, followed by one massive pancake to share. Both energizing and grounding. Ideally I try to set a different tone than other mornings; less of a grind, more human.
I tried to let this mix convey this feeling, and hopefully use it myself to be in the morning and not work so hard; The music is more emotionally layered and pulls me a bit more into different directions than what I'd listen to when starting work.

Sundays are for... Tensen Park

"An introspective current flows through shifting frequencies and shadowy textures, carefully held in balance. Stillness emerges through the haze — not as escape, but as quiet anchor points in a landscape shaped by tension, release, and the artist’s sublime signature."

SUNA (@sunabass) , Korean artist and resident/cofounder of vurt. (@vurtkr) Seoul club.  SUNA's DJ set expresses a fear of unknown world through musical spatiality. She communicates with the audience conveying various human emotions as desire, anxiety, hope and suchlike. The deep, emotional yet simple sound she has been seeking for, mingles with the hypnotic atmosphere that techno's musical structure and pattern have to offer, leads us to the new dimension expanding the present to infinite universe.

With deep gratitude, we welcome @mattxavier

Matt is the author of The Psychedelic DJ: A Practical Guide to Therapeutic Music Curation and Psilocybin-Assisted Therapy (https://a.co/d/3Rj3G4r), a guide for facilitators and psychonauts that combines DJ techniques, counseling, music curation, and psychedelic therapy. As a seasoned DJ, mental health counselor, and psychedelic guide, his work sits at the crossroads of music, healing, and expanded consciousness.

With over 30 years of experience exploring sound and psychedelics—from pioneering New York City’s early ’90s psytrance scene to cofounding the techno/house label Railyard Recordings—Matt eventually shifted his focus from nightlife to clinical psychology. Today, he runs Integrated Psychedelics (https://integratedpsychedelics.com), a private practice dedicated to guided journeywork, preparation, and integration support for psychedelic experiences.

In Matt's words:

"Psilocybin Therapy Protocol 2: The Shadow" is the second part of a four-hour DJ mix series I've created from hundreds of live psychedelic therapy sessions. Following Protocol 1 – The Light (available via ASIP's Isolated Mix Series at https://tinyurl.com/isolatedmix132), which focused on major chords and sublimation, this sequel encourages deeper exploration using minor chord progressions to uncover hidden aspects of the psyche.

Structured around the shared arc of the Hero’s Journey & psilocybin mushroom experience (departure, initiation, return) these mixed protocols blend ambient textures, cinematic scores, and pulses of techno/house to support inner transformation. An ideal tool for guided sessions, solo journeys, or deep listening.

Psychedelic adventures from all over the musical universe.

Nog Zone w/ Anthony Child: 5th August '25

The haze of Paral·lel festival has barely lifted, but we’re rewinding to another moment worth lingering on, February in Granada, at the Moonback club. There, under the warm glow of the Extramostra banner, Mostra linked up with the Klub Collective for a night that balanced local soul with an international touch. The lineup reads like a heads-only dream: Timnah, Antonio Vázquez, Refracted, and a solid core of Klub Collective residents including Fran Acosta, Kaizen, and Utopian. The kind of night that reminded us why the first slot matters more than most people admit. It’s the architectural role: shaping the night’s flow from zero.

Utopian did just that. His set unfolds like a slow exhale, dub-laced ambient that creeps, swells, and gradually transforms into chugging, low-slung techno hypnosis. It’s a patient climb: syncopated, restrained, precise. Not a single cheap move, just deep focus and floor logic, the kind that sets the table without stealing the meal. But make no mistake, this was a statement. A warm-up that didn’t just support the night, but elevated it.

There’s a special kind of trust when a festival makes someone a resident. For Les Chaos Ambiants, that someone is Lynne. We’ve partnered with this boutique French festival for the second year, sharing the sounds and stories behind their lakeside weekend in the wooded hills of Sommant. The festival thrives on curation that feels personal, lineups that move like chapters in a book, sound systems tuned to catch every detail, and a setting where the air itself seems to carry the low-end.

Lynne embodies that approach. Originally from Japan and now based in London, she’s built a reputation on mixing low-lit atmospheres with rhythm patterns that shift just as you think you’ve caught them. Her triumphant comeback to our podcast series finds her opening the spectrum: warmer tones, space between the beats, a subtle dub pulse, and even flickers of jazz phrasing. Yet the structural backbone remains hers, breaks that fold time and pacing that keeps you just ahead of the next turn. It’s not a departure, it's more like a widening of the frame, perfectly in sync with the spirit of Les Chaos Ambiants.

Delayed x Les Chaos Ambiants: Lynne

Conversion, the second opus from German electronic duo Guentner + Spieth, dives deep into their shared musical roots to reinterpret them through a contemporary, nuanced lens. The result is a body of work that blends ambient expansiveness with dub-inspired detail - layered soundscapes that balance openness with structure. Unbound by conventional formats, the album moves fluidly between rhythmic depth and atmospheric stillness. Bass drums appear alongside quiet passages, carried by floating pads, carefully placed accents, and a sense of space that feels both introspective and organic. Conversion is both a tribute to shared origins and a statement of artistic evolution.

Created in a relaxed, intimate atmosphere, Conversion reflects formative influences of early ambient, dub, and deep techno releases while combining them with the artists characteristic signatures. Both made their debut on the legendary Cologne label Kompakt in the early 2000s and were part of Wolfgang Voigt's trend-setting Pop Ambient series. They have since independently developed distinctive positions within electronic music: Guentner with his cinematic-atmospheric albums such as Theia and Onda on the label A Strangely Isolated Place. While Spieth heads the Affin label with its deep, hypnotic sound aesthetic, he releases a steady stream of his own works such as Irradiance, or the more recent Retrace.

Conversion is less retrospective and more a continuation of a finely tuned dialog that invites introspection with its minimalist compositions, organic hues, and cavernous depth. Each track on this "after-hours" album unfolds with deliberate subtlety, drawing the listener into an immersive experience where sound becomes both space and emotion. Between structure and expanse, density and silence, a work of quiet intensity unfolds that is club-compatible. 

Guentner Spieth - Conversion

The music of Purl always emerges between the ephemeral and the eternal and 'Form Is Emptiness', his first work for Archives, is the perfect example. With each sound in its right place, but turning impulsively, as if was alive and conscious. Drawing breathtaking soundscapes with immersive vibes and chilling emerging pad sounds, slowly blossoming into colorful and vibrant sonic vistas.

Purl - Under Mjuka Vatten

Preview clips of the forthcoming album by Lav & Purl, titled 'A State Of Becoming', available on double pink LP and digital. Pre-order now available: http://asip.me/asipv007

A State Of Becoming began life in the summer of 2014, when Lav (Christopher Landin) was traveling Greece and began recording the sounds surrounding him in remote, desolate places of nature.

With a quiet mind, Christopher's awareness of the surrounding sounds would increase together with a feeling of the interconnectedness of all things. This concept is central to the album, being expressed by the presence of the field recordings, as the foundation from which each track grows and extends. The tiniest detail, chirp, river-swell and sway of a branch, are captured in macro -  Mother Nature’s bed, a landscape ready to bloom.

"When we bring our full attention to the act of listening, new worlds emerge that we wouldn't even notice if we were just passing by, distracted by thoughts"

Christopher and Ludvig Cimbrelius (Purl) had only met a couple of times before the process of this album started, but when Christopher sent over the recordings, Ludvig fell in love with their simplicity and presence, and instantly knew he wanted to take them on. 

"I was traveling in France at the time with no place to call home, and the next time I passed through Sweden I recorded piano for the album. I had but one day to record and improvised freely, making 1 or 2 recordings for each track and then moving on to the next. After this session, I was carrying the project files from Christopher and piano recordings around with me for quite some time until I found the right state of mind to start the process of molding them together. Since I did not have a stable home during these years, I worked on the album in many different locations"

The minutiae of sounds from Christopher’s field recordings are transformed into a variety of expansive lifeforms, as Purl’s majestic addition of piano, carefully measured beats and subtle instruments turn an organic landscape into an ethereal scene of movement and life. With each track given the length and focus it deserves, just like nature itself, the album slowly unfolds in several phases, unrestricted, free flowing and patiently awakening.

"During the journey, my desire has been to bring life to all layers of the tracks while still retaining the beauty of their original simplicity”

The album concept was given further life through the artwork, created by Noah MacDonald (previous designs include Yagya, Marsen Jules and bvdub) through an organic, flowing scene that expands within the inside gatefold - a time-lapse capturing the many stages, developments, sounds and feelings that emerge during A State Of Becoming.

36’s music is often associated with and influenced by the futuristic, cyberpunk side of ambient music. His ability to transport and portray new worlds evident through his 2016 album on ASIP, The Infinity Room, or any of his self-released works.

It’s of no surprise then to see his return to ASIP take this exploration one-step further. However, instead of the more obvious themes that come with cyberpunk, such as technological fetishism or vapid aesthetics, Dennis Huddleston has decided to focus on the isolation of individuals, using (and often abusing) technology as a means of escapism - a side of cyberpunk that often goes unnoticed when it comes to the musical depictions that come with it.

Fade To Grey reflects on current social paradigms, where social media has become a weak substitute for human interaction. Rather than bringing people together, it often makes us feel lonelier than ever. As evident in the album's artwork, technology is shown to be far from benign. The soft, gentle elegance of watercolor is juxtaposed by the violent splatters of machinery. Every vice has its price.

Considering the landscape of our own world right now, where a handful of companies control everything we consume, where convenience is more important than privacy, where personal choice is pre-determined by algorithms analyzing our behavior, and where the internet has become a battleground for influence and propaganda... It's not a stretch of the imagination to believe we're already witnessing our very own dystopia.
