"I often build mixes up from light, floaty frequencies, slowly layering in sounds, but for this mix, I wanted to be right in the intensity of the situation from the start.

This story follows an abandoned spaceship, adrift in the depths of the cosmos. Something strange and perplexing has happened here. Unnerving and claustrophobic from the get-go, this initial constriction of pressure is gradually unwound as the mix twists and turns through a variety of ominous soundscapes…"

Monument Festival 2022: Forest Drive West

The recording of the mix I made for @lowless-music's Rinse France show on the 30th of September 2022. 

I wanted this mix to be a kind of part-2 to the show I did at The Lot Radio in NY back in February in 2020 (if any of you remember that one - https://soundcloud.com/syberkid/thelotradio).

Basically, another mix journeying through hazy-deep-broken-strange music. I have a playlist under that name, where anything that feels like this lives, and as we head back towards colder weather, it’s these tunes I’m reaching for.

The mix criss-crosses through deep techno, inquisitive percussion, lazybreaks, slowed-dubstep, and ye I dunno, some gnarly alien noises? The main thing I wanted to capture is a central sort of frazzled feeling around the edges of the sounds, and a morphing gelatinous groove which feels like it could fractalise in unexpected directions.

Hope you enjoy the trip. Feat music by: Toki Fuko, Skee Mask, Monolake, Rvshes, Calibre, D-leria, Ntogn, Alva Noto +++

The first Patterns of Perception mix of 2023 comes from a luminous presence and dear friend of our collective - label head, mix series curator, promoter and esteemed selector Aaron J (@arn_j).

Over the years, a combination of passion, openness and tireless energy has seen Aaron become a trusted voice for experimental, boundary-pushing electronic music across both the US and the wider scene. 

Founded over eight years ago, Aaron’s much-loved platform @sure_thing is the embodiment of his forward-thinking curation and clarity of vision. Now based in Brooklyn, Sure Thing started as a series of parties in San Francisco before growing outward, later blossoming into a renowned mix series and record label. 

As a DJ, Aaron’s level of empathy and attention-to-detail are unmistakeable, allowing him to deeply connect with the dance floor no matter the context - layering, building and driving emotions ever onwards.

Aaron J's Patterns of Perception 106 is both radiant and personal - an idyllic snapshot of the perfect dance floor, glowing with wide-eyed energy. Pensive darkness simmers into hedonistic psychedelia. Intensity turns reflective. Endless rhythms vibrate and flare into nurturing light.

Patterns of Perception 106 - Aaron J

Thrilled to host one of my current favourites & major inspirations, the insanely talented @polygonia for number #120. An ever-impressive force,  Polygonia known for her driving, organic & eclectic productions & beautifully deep, percussive dj style.

I was lucky enough to see Linni play live at Monument festival in Norway last year and was blown away.. her ability to seamlessly fuse psychedelic melodies, driving basslines & unique percussive rifts, all in a somehow soothing yet driving manner, is truely a work of art. 

Thanks so much for the mix Linni! <3

Faery's (@freyacaldwell) psychedelic selections are eye-closing and mind-opening in equal measure

This mix is loosely based on two of my favourite sets I played last year - one was the set I played at Above Below Festival where I had the best time closing the festival in full vortex mode, going from driving deep techno into dark, spiralling DnB; the second was a set I played at Fata Morgana Festival in Normandy - that was a really special set for me, it was one of those ones where everything felt flowy and even though it was 2 hours it felt as though just 20 minutes had passed.

I love building things up quite slowly, what I tried to do in this mix is start off with sparser, ricocheting, percussive tracks and from that lighter stuff I like to gradually get into what I like to call “thick techno” – chunky deep stuff, and then I always like to bring it back down again so I have tracks that are ambient, but they are really intense so they are kind of like peak time ambient. I think it’s nice when things are getting intense to strip everything back and then you can go back to that process of building things back up again. I also find these to be an amazing tool for shifting tempos and for entering new territories – for this mix I decided on fast, skittering psy-influenced techno, but I also love going into dnb at this point too. I think the thing I love most about this new, psy-esque fast techno is the way its intensity comes from its speed rather than a huge amount of weight to the tracks.
