~ October Selected Mixes ~

NYE 2024 - Milo & Muted

My set from a sweet Sunday afternoon at Unfold. I played in the Mainroom from 4-6pm <3

Mastered by Other Joe

Zara @ Unfold, London (22.06.2025)

After an extended pause for much needed rest and slow reflection, the Patterns of Perception crew is excited to return to our mix series with fresh energy and a stellar new mix from Jasmin, aka softi (@jazz_brown). 

Soulful, breezy and groove-laden, softi's Patterns of Perception 122 shimmers with her kaleidoscopic, minimal sound. Weightless sparks float and flicker in dim light. Time dilates; seasons drift.

A few thoughts from Jasmin:

Hey Jasmin, how’s it going? What's been happening for you lately?
I’m well, I’m currently living between Lisbon and London this summer which has been a dream! Great food, beach sessions and writing music. It’s been a wild 3 months and I’m just getting myself ready for the seasons changing!

What can you tell us about your mix?
For this mix I wanted to mould my love of groovy minimal and psychedelic tones for the moody season ahead, which is usually my signature sound! I have been producing a lot of this recently and some of my unreleased bits are exclusively inside 💜

⁠Is there a track or tracks that are extra special for you?
I’d probably say my own productions are the special to me as it reminds me of how much I have developed as a producer and artist. I love connecting with the tracks and being able to create my own atmospheric world for listeners to get lost in. But one track that I always come back to is "bluep" by Underground City Loop (a producer from Aus). I have been playing this track for years and it has every sonic element you'd want from a track - low end sub groove with dark melodic synths.

Patterns of Perception 122 - softi

Earlier this year, we had the pleasure of attending the fourth edition of Mostra, one of the most beautiful, safe, and welcoming gatherings we've ever experienced. It was an intimate, four-day festival in the city of Barcelona dedicated to exploring experimental electronic music and the avant-garde — expertly curated and surrounded by a beautiful community of like-minded souls who treated us like family.

On the second day of the festival at Fabra i Coats — inside one of the most respectful and attentive listening rooms, with an audience whose silence drew you even deeper into the sound — Detroit legend and Mostra resident Patrick Russell took his place in the booth, seated this year, and delivered a deeply moving and powerful sonic trip — one we’re honored to share with you today.

A big thank you to Patrick and Mostra for giving us the opportunity to share one of our favourite performances of the festival.

We are very happy to present you with the 56th chapter in our Podcast Series today, a powerful deep listening mix recorded live at Perpendicular 2025 by our dear friend ~ Horizontal. Setting the scene, imagine yourself laying down comfortably in a wooden cabin deep in the woods at night time, in profound communion with your fellow listeners and letting the sounds collective carry you inwards 🌚✨
 
I first met Paul two years ago playing at one of my favourite ambient rooms at a small gathering in Scotland, then again last year at Backsteinboot in Berlin where we both played as part of an all night sleepover ambient event Rausch. Both times, I was mesmerised by the composure and depth of Paul’s music and demeanour, two qualities that truly shine through in this sublime mix probing the realms of drone ambient, minimalism, avant-garde and electro-acoustic composition 💫

This hour and a half of slithering drones, liquefied glitches, deep nocturnal soundscapes and ritual sonics is occasionally punctuated by narration. It ebbs and flows between barely audible and fiercely present as it deliberately stretches the scope of listening with its passage. The further in you listen, the deeper in you go 🔮

Recorded live at @espacio-perpendicular 2025

Detroit’s Craig Gonzalez was drawn to vinyl from a young age, captivated by hip hop and the underground party scene of the 1990s. This fascination quickly evolved into a lifelong passion for DJing, driven by a desire to weave rhythmic layers into compelling, personal stories. 

A self-taught artist, Gonzalez’s collection spans the rich musical evolution of Detroit, including techno, house, hip hop, funk, dnb, and a diverse range of other genres. His skills were further honed during his residency at Solar in Ann Arbor, where he shared the decks with renowned artists. Gonzalez has also been a frequent fixture at Movement and other major local events, where he’s shared the stage with legends in the electronic music scene. Since 2022, he has been a resident DJ for the Third Thursday monthly event by Paxahau, further cementing his presence in Detroit’s vibrant nightlife scene. 

Deeply influenced by the musical depth of Detroit and the hypnotic craft of global artists, Gonzalez’s style reflects a rich, interconnected network of like-minded creators. His connection to family, history, and the culture surrounding electronic music gives his sets a profound sensibility, effortlessly translating onto the dance floor.

RND 141 - Craig Gonzalez

"From stillness, motion grows. After hours suspended in ambient haze, pulse and movement return - deep, measured, and alive with detail. From layered harmonics to the weight of each kick, the set unfolds like a slow ignition: serious, immersive, and unrelenting in its drive. A live moment at Mostra that reminded everyone where the dancefloor begins."

As a Mostra resident since the first edition, Timnah (@timnah-sommerfeldt) has shown throughout the previous years a great versatility, adapting to any venue and time slot of the festival always brilliantly. After closing Mostra24 in a masterful way, the Swiss artist visited Mostra25 to do a hybrid set with Mario (@mario-7), who also joined Mostra with Varuna (@varuna4053) a couple of years ago in a performance of which we also keep very nice memories.
The hybrid DJ/live set of Timnah and Mario is a match made in heaven, linking top notch selector capabilities to swirling hardware techno aesthetics and flawless execution. Both hailing from Basel, their collab also entangles the two local labels Amenthia Recordings (@amenthia-recordings) and A Walking Contradiction (@awalkingcontradiction). Through their close collaboration with both labels and heaps of collective of studio time, their musical taste and approach have become deeply intertwined, resulting in long build-ups and transcendental sound sculptures.

Mostra (@mostrabcn) is an independent, small-scale festival of avant-garde and experimental electronic music that emerged at the end of 2021 as a counterpoint to the macro-festivals and the overcrowded, commercial, and impersonal offerings of other large events held in Barcelona. Mostra will celebrate its fourth edition from March 12 to 15, 2026.

Don't miss the 5th edition of Mostra!!

OMM Transmission — @makiko-iwaki

For this edition, we welcome Menou, also known as Iwamaki - a Japan-based DJ and live performer exploring the deep territories of drone and ambient techno.

Her sets unfold like slow-moving landscapes, where layered textures and resonant tones invite deep focus and stillness.

This mix was recorded following her performance at Audio Base Camp #3 at YCAM in Yamaguchi - an experience she describes as one of the most powerful and immersive moments of her DJ career.

A transmission of subtle intensity and evolving depth - where each sound breathes into the next.

MindTrip Podcast 108 - Jamaica Suk

A sonic portrait of letting go and the quiet pull of memory. 
Across five tracks, Voice Of Tone explores the tension between separation and return, stillness and intensity. 
Deep bass pressure, metallic resonance and fragile melodies capture the moment where past and present collapse into one. 
Failure to Return is a cinematic reflection on what remains after everything has changed.

VOICE OF TONE - Failure To Return (Code Is Law 029) Snippets

A slow-burning glide through hazy reverie - @leifsounds’ Patterns of Perception 123 blurs the boundary between waking and vivid dreamscape. 
Spectral melancholia suffused with gentle insistence. Sultry percussion whirs. Reflections dissolve, rhythms build.

- Hey Leif, how’s it going? What’s been happening lately?
Hey, I'm good thanks - enjoying spending some time focusing on producing / mixing again after a bit of a break! There are a few things on the horizon including some new material and some radio shows this winter.

- Tell us a bit about this mix - what was your idea or direction behind it?
It was a chance to weave together a few dreamy slow burners around the 100bpm mark I've been really enjoying recently, and feature some fresh bits from Duckett and others along the way.

- ⁠Are there any tracks or moments in the mix that feel extra special or defining to you? 
'Pick a Headline' - one I made together with Duckett will always feel like a special track - it's a few years old now but still brings serenity every time I listen.

Lotus Eater performed on the third day of #Mostra25 at the Vall d'Hebron Olympic Pavilion.

+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +

Lotus Eater is a duo consisting of Luca Mortellaro (@lucy) and Seth Horvitz (@rrose1921), techno artists just as comfortable operating in the uncharted area of experimental music who have gained a cult following, both influencing and challenging the direction of contemporary electronic music.

Eschewing the typical instrumentation of techno but still inhabiting its archetypes, Lotus Eater uses synthesised sound and feedback as fundamental sources to generate both textural and percussive elements. A sense of tension and weight emerge from sources that cannot be easily pinpointed. Each release forms a complex narrative from a paradoxically simple and restrained set of sound sources.

Officially formed in 2017, Lotus Eater came to life through several collaborations over a number of years, and finally blossomed with the release of its critically acclaimed debut album "Desatura," which Lotus Eater toured live in 2018 - 2019.

2022 sees the release of the second Lotus Eater album "Plasma" and a new audiovisual live project to accompany it. "Plasma" unfolds with exacting precision by exhibiting a point of focus and expanding on it. It uses a single, throbbing pulse to generate a constellation of sounds and rhythms that form around it like a volcanic eruption in slow motion. Playing with our sense of time and weight, "Plasma" feels simultaneously slow and urgent, spacious and immense. Lotus Eater zooms into the infinite abyss and finds not just light, but fire at the end of the tunnel. Will we be saved, or will we burn?

Lotus Eater - Live - @ Mostra 2025 🖤
