All Music for Whales in a row

Read our interview with Jane Fitz here: https://www.patternsofperception.com/post/a-chat-with-jane-fitz

To introduce @janefitz as a legend of the scene borders on understatement. The UK selector has earned an almost cult-like following born out of her annual sets at Freerotation festival, co-founding London’s Night Moves parties (with good friend Jade Seatle - @jade-green), a more recent residency at revered club the Pickle Factory, a monthly show on @rinsefm, and a pre-pandemic touring schedule that took in countless clubs and festivals the world over. She herself admits to being committed to the scene for life, driven by a deep appreciation of the music above all else – and a constant desire to surprise both herself and her audience equally.

For her Patterns of Perception 82, Jane has recreated some of the warmth she felt during her visit to Berlin for a b2b with Eric Cloutier (@cloutier) at our party in November 2019, an event which remains a vivid memory on both sides. The mix features many records collected over the past year of the pandemic and not yet played out, giving it a sense of urgency and an uplifting quality that, for her, recalls an outdoor festival set in better days. “A bit of me was kind of longing for playing on the side of a Japanese mountain again or for all those festivals you do in the summer,” she says. “I wanted to have people stomping on a forest floor.”

Patterns of Perception 82 - Jane Fitz

For home use only’ is an anti-club social, a chance to get to know someone/something. A series of transmissions purely dedicated to exploring the other side.

Well, that was a weird couple of months. Apologies for the lack of transmissions but I’m sure everyone understands the complete lack of motivation and inspiration that has been cast across the world. That being said, it hasn’t slowed everyone down that's for sure. I’m completely backed up with incredible mixes from incredible people, so let’s get back to our original program. 

In celebration of such, we’re excited to return with a (gentle) bang in the form of episode 60, via the incredibly talented Kia. Unless you’ve been living under a rock (which is completely understandable) you would’ve noticed Kia’s light in many facets; an incredibly talented DJ, a passionate and dedicated label boss, and associated mix series runner (big ol tip’o’that to Animalia // link below), woolen based wunderkind, and most importantly a fucking lovely human being. 

And if you do know Kia then as you would expect, her submission to the series is nothing short of breathtaking. A perfectly constructed soundscape, daydreaming of an above-average paradise. Emotionally inciting on all fronts, it’s nice to feel things again and I think this is perfectly timed with the world opening back up again. The subtly rhythmic pulses of 4x4 drums reactivating that lost sense of liberating yourself on the dance floor (finally back in our sights) and the ethereal harmonies that keep you grounded on the bedroom floor. What Kia manages to do in an hour is exceptional, a short story that translates to a full novel, a true testament to her talent and understanding of music and all of the concepts that go with it. Best served through headphones with room to move.

Enjoy it every way you can. 
 
I hope you’re all well and thank you for listening. 
 
Love.

Venue: Naeba Greenland, Gunma, Japan.

To celebrate 20 years of building Labyrinths, we have decided to release one set from each of the last ten years. I've chosen ten timeless moments that both document the history of the event and provide a historical snapshot of underground electronic music over the past ten years.

We have chosen a broad range--from closing techno sets, to morning ambient sets, to experimental sets to close the night. Each set represents a different side of the event. Taken together, they present a portrait of a decade of music.

The Labyrinthの20周年を記念して、過去10年間を振り返り、それぞれの年からひとつのミックスをピックアップすることにしました。イベントの歴史を記録すると同時に、過去10年間のアンダーグラウンドエレクトロニックミュージックの歴史的なスナップショットを提供します。今聞いても色褪せない、タイムレスな極上のミックスをお楽しみください。

テクノのクロージングセットから、朝のアンビエントセット、そして夜を締めくくるエクスペリメンタルセットまで幅広いセレクトですが、どのセットもThe Labyrinthの欠かせない側面を表しており、ここ10年におけるエレクトロニック ミュージックの全容とも言えるでしょう。

Music For Whales - Oneohtrix Point Never

Music for Whales, an ambient radio transmission. The longest and most beautiful musical journey of the year. 

We have mixed, in an obscene set given its length, all the tracks that have been aired in 2024 on the radio show "Música para Ballenas", a programme where the best releases of the genre are highlighted and commented (in Spanish) on a monthly basis. Each of the tracks is a gateway to their full experience: their complete album. There are 130 tracks referring to as many albums. SoundCloud doesn't let us show so much text so the tracklist will be displayed in the comments or in a more visual way in this IG post: (under construction)

We recommend five different modes of listening: 

-Analytically, by intellectualising the mixes and looking at the musicians who create the music. As the playback progresses, you will see in the comments the track id and a link to bandcamp where you can find the complete album and support the artist if you consider it appropriate. They are mixed in chronological order of release so you can look back over the months that have completed this 2024.

-As a soundtrack to your routines, meetings and conversations. . Press play and leave it on in the background for a meeting with your people, at work, or on a trip. Let the best tracks of the year comb your routine in the background. It is music that does not interfere in an explicit way in the environment, but in a latently modulating way; it inspires to bring out the best prose of the conversationalists and the best walk of the walkers. 

-By looking at the track list you can go directly to the artist that catches your attention, listen to their track and expand your enjoyment by going to their full album.

-Press play in shuffle mode anywhere in the set and let yourself go for about 50-60 minutes, just like a normal session. Promised that you will love the mixes and the plot that forms the succession of tracks. 

-Don't listen to it. Just go to the comments and go straight to the LPs, there's some great music coming out this year, every year is better than the last.

Vladimir Ivkovic live on Netil Radio 3 May 2025

a recording from the pond gathering this summer,

reflecting upon his live set on the saturday, dan said,

"i'm feeling a lot of tension in parties, enjoying ourselves, meeting incredible people in beautiful places, alongside so much geo-political despair and hopelessness, and most notably of course, genocide. i think there is a need to seek escape from this, in many of the ways we know how, but we must also not ignore the abuses we see. we should embrace the beauty and love that some of us are able to feel simultaneously with our grief, fear and compassion. and with this mix i wanted at least to try and touch on some of the challenges we face personally and communally, as well as the sadness, and hopefully some of the joy as well, the bubbling of optimism we feel when we unite against evil. we need to be aware of these contradictions, and feel everything as much as we are able to, and hopefully from there imagine a better way, accepting the light and dark and making steps to a way of living. i tried not to labour this too much, but it was very present in my mind when preparing the set, and when playing it - of course to some this is just a mix, but it's a form of communication that you're free to experience however you see fit x"
