---

As a DJ, producer and label head, Felix K’s singular perspective and approach has been an ongoing source of inspiration across the scene since the early 00's. From seminal work on his own array of imprints to key performances at events around the world (including an unforgettable set at a Patterns of Perception party in 2019), Felix’s vision has been, and continues to be, both influential and indelible.

For Patterns of Perception 100, Felix drew upon his vast knowledge (and record collection) to compile an ambitious four-hour mix which traces the spirit and lineage of both fundamental and contemporary sounds across the wider breakbeat/UK scene.
Beginning the journey with foundational dub, Felix layers modern counterpoints of breaks, jungle and dnb, in the process highlighting connections, overlaps and inspirations that have taken place across years, generations and eras.
The result is almost encyclopaedic in its depth and scope, but with an approachable energy that channels the warmth of mixtape culture. It is a  fascinating and compelling undertaking from a true head, with a presence that feels both fresh and timeless.

Patterns of Perception 100 - Felix K

This recording is from the first edition of L’Appuntamento, a series of open-air listening sessions initiated by Villa Lontana Records and Donato Dozzy in Rome. Each gathering pairs a vinyl set by Dozzy with a live electroacoustic performance by a new-generation artist.

In this first edition, held in the garden of Villa Lontana, Donato Dozzy opened the evening with a selection of minimal, folkloric, and acoustic-rooted records — setting the tone for Verde Prato’s live performance.

L’Appuntamento is an ongoing invitation to pause, tune in, and share time through listening. 
Next appointment is Thursday 26 June 2025 with Ange Halliwell.

For this episode of our Komorebi Podcast Series, we welcome Swiss DJ, producer, and curator Ben Kaczor, an artist whose sonic language speaks directly to emotion. With a sound that fluidly bridges the introspective and the physical, Kaczor weaves together elements of techno, deep house, and dub techno into minimal yet immersive soundscapes. His sets evoke monochrome atmospheres, subtle melancholy, and deep inner resonance, crafted for spaces of both solitude and connection.

A recent addition to Dial Records and co-founder of St. Odes, his creative path is rooted in a multidimensional approach to sound and art. Whether curating, producing, or performing, Kaczor remains anchored in a clear vision: music to be felt, not deconstructed.

Tune in and dissolve into this timeless sonic journey.

Ben Kaczor #04 - Komorebi Podcast Series

the 6th chapter as the previous 5 chapters is education 
that a lot of alleged "House" DJs and Producers are 
obviously lacking showcasing modern, vintage and 
out of print/promo labels:

trax records, underground, house records, precision,
sunstar records, dezzarotic records, l.a. club resource, 
gherkin records, chicago connection, still music chicago,
dark entries and chiwax to productions from: 

ron hardy, felix de housecat’s 1st production, sweet d,
gene hunt, larry heard, farley jackmaster funk, virgo 4, 
x2, dmarc cantu, steve summers, boyd jarvis, juju, 
leron carson, g strings, ron morelli, terence woodard, 
delroy edwards, mutant beat dance and a new production of jakbeat to come from chicago 
with a new alias project dropping later this year 
in 2025 for a label we support.
(more news on that later)


⚠️ warning ⚠️ 
this selection covers the building blocks of the 
early dance music scene with selections of today 
and yesterday incorporating musical blueprint dubs,
a couple of vocals in between but overall: 
a raw style of basement underground tracks 
of Chicago and New York’s timeless heroes & icons 
we admire, honor and inspired by their education.

we hope this will give people the chance to 
listen to music many may have never heard 
on this side of sound that provides a provocative 
and thoughtful musical workout in your mind 
with vinyl turntables, a vintage mix console 
with an effects box and cd players.

this selection is personally dedicated 
to my beloved heart ♥️ vicki, jason, nestor, 
mark grusane, naughty wood, ron morelli,
kozmik, strangeland, alex from queens, uncle tom
and the dancers and dreamers for the continuation 
of the lessons and storytelling of chicago with 
sincerity 🎶✨

SPOKEN105 - 2lanes

For the September edition of our mix series, we welcome Detroit artist 2lanes. His love for music began early through drumming, and he started crafting his first beats on an MPC with floppy disks while living in New York.

Shaped by his first rave experiences in New York and the energy of Detroit’s scene, 2lanes brings a pristine and immersive sound. His music often acts as a visualization of environments and stories. Whether it’s the outline of characteristic buildings in his city or tales from friends about raves, he imagines what those buildings or moments would sound like in music.

The recording he created for us takes inspiration from the many forest and outdoor festivals he has attended recently, as well as his love for extended blends of deep techno. The result is a journey that pulls you in from the very first moment and lets you drift effortlessly into the woods.

Enjoy!

SPOKEN105 - 2lanes

Cio D’Or hardly requires an introduction, having long stood as both a pillar of our scene and a source of inspiration for so many. Over the course of her singular and decades-spanning career, the Cologne-based artist has cultivated a universe of sound entirely her own, immediately recognizable yet endlessly evolving much like the work of her contemporaries and collaborators Mike Parker and Donato Dozzy. To experience Cio’s music is to follow a throughline that traces the complex history of contemporary techno in a single gesture, compelled by the vast unknown and the primordial familiar in equal measure. Recalling the blurred realism of Richter’s photo-paintings or the timeless intricacy of Bach’s fugues, Cio’s self-contained sonic world delicately reframes our own precious lifecycle, a reflection revealed through its elegant and subtractive minimalism.

In collaboration with our friends at Mostra, I’m honored to share a selection from Cio D’Or’s set performed at this year’s edition of the Barcelona-based festival, a sublime triumph from a scholar of sound.

"Perception shapes reality.
Every glance, every presence - alters what it observes.

The Observer Effect explores this fragile tension between listener and sound. Between awareness and surrender.

Six artists trace the invisible lines where rhythm becomes perception itself - minimal yet expansive, mechanical yet deeply human.

Recorded across continents, the compilation captures states of quiet attention: dub’s slow pulse, house’s steady breath, and textures that dissolve into pure motion. Each piece reflects the other, shifting as you listen, reminding us that observation is never neutral.

In the end, what we hear is also what we project - a mirror in vibration."
