"Although Duchamp now offers everything from trench coats to trousers, the core of the collection is very much occasion wear for men who love dressing up, with velvet tuxedos and evening dresses for events from big nights out to a day at the races. The brand has proved to be a huge hit with the wedding market…after all Duchamp is all about the feel-good factor, and what could be more important than feeling good on your biggest day?" ~ Rrose

When I came to London last year to join fabric and head the A&R for the artist led label Houndstooth I got dragged down to Hackney Wick for what was going to be a life changing techno event of the rawest level. This happening is what has inspired my series of Warehouse Sessions, where I have reached out to my favourite techno artists and asked them to get inspired by that unique thump thump betwixt concrete sounds that industrialised techno spaces always provoke and provide a suitably banging mix for my Electronic Explorations podcast series.
This week I've kicked off another round of mixes lead by Our Circula Sound man Sigha, London resident Ø [Phase], Semantica Records boss and Spanish producer Svreca, Italian producer and co-owner of Repitch Records Shapednoise (One half of Violetshaped) and finally a US producer who has released on Sandwell District & Stroboscopic Artefacts, Rrose.
December 2012 brought mixes by USA producer Skirt, UK producer Truss aka MPIA3, Stormfield & myself, Irish and Greek producers AnD and French producer Kangding Ray (his being voted EE mix from all shows in 2012)

Reclaim Your City 083 | Adriana Lopez

Producer, DJ, promoter, and @soundsofvala label head, @soundsofkaspiann's work straddles a range of paces and moods, always with an eye toward the innovative. With a lower-tempo release due early next year on an undisclosed label, Kaspiann's more recent sonic explorations wade into swampy techno with psychedelic inflections.

In Patterns of Perception 117, Kaspiann pulls you into the flow through these murky sounds that dips and stomps along, with a selection of unreleased tracks from both his and his friends' studios, along with a handful of carefully unearthed gems.

Patterns of Perception 117 - Kaspiann

Known for her hypnotic dives to the psychedelic reaches of deep techno, London-based @freyacaldwell signature style emphasises meticulous sound design and the incorporation of lush and evocative textures. 

Having graced the stages of renowned venues and festivals throughout Europe, she has appeared at prestigious locations such as Amsterdam's De School, the Positive Education Festival, and London's own Village Underground.

Faery's Patterns of Perception 118 circles around echoes, resonances and hauntings, shifting between shadowy low-ends and moments of ecstatic crescendo. Encapsulating the tension and drama held in dnb's darker edges, the mix also weaves in touches of eerie contemporary classical-esque ambient.

Patterns of Perception 118 - Faery

Hailing from Amsterdam and with De School as his homebase, @nawazworldwide’s sound is always evolving, sliding deftly from wormhole techno to fast rhythms and glitchy electronics.

His selections on this Patterns of Perception 119 melt together while also reinforcing each other, each transition subtler than the last, sometimes even employing his own tailor-made tools and tracks for the purpose.

Beginning from a visual image, this mix blends diverse rhythms and atmospheres, offering a story line from which the listener can create their own narrative, their own image, free of imposition.

Patterns of Perception 119 - Nawaz

Marking the culmination of 2023, our final mix features the debut release from one of our own, @zilkamarie. As the driving force behind comms within our collective, Zilka's music inspiration is drawn from the diverse array of artists she collaborates with.

Recorded live at Jacopo (@severja) and Fred’s (@fred-czital) Hitze party back in July, the set follows on from a daytime open air while also opening the after party. Progressing from wet, spacious ambient sounds to dubby, irresistible beats, Patterns of Perception 120 captures and plays with quintessential afterhours vibes.

Patterns of Perception 120 - Zilka

Hailing from Germany and now based in Portugal, @vril_01 has in recent years been quietly producing and performing some truly extraordinary electronic music. Going from strength to strength, he takes dancefloors on vivid, compelling journeys across Europe and beyond.

Patterns of Perception 121 takes us back to a very special live ambient set .VRIL performed at @nachtdigital MINT 2019, an immersive hour of lucid textures and swelling intensity.

Big thanks to @sentientechno for making this happen with us.

For Secret Thirteen journal we have worked on a special slowed down techno recording in the spirit of the live sets we have did for Polar Inertia’s recent exhibitions in Brussels and CCA, Tbilisi.

A couple of months ago we have changed all our gear and equipment, and collected new machines but somehow never had enough time to meet altogether and wire them. Finally, we have decided to hook up our new musical gear and equipment to improvise the future of Polar Inertia’s sound.

It was one of those studio jams you do not want to rush to. We took our time. Slowed down the tempo to 112 bpm and sent all synths through a multitrack recorder to catch every moment of the jam session. During hours of knob twisting we went through several states of mind and different styles.

What we are sharing with Secret Thirteen readers is an edited version of what happened that night.

Infos & Tracklisting ==> http://716lavie.com/716-exclusive-mix-isorinne-appearance-in-memory-mix/

Isorinne (@Isorinne) has just released his beautiful first album on @Fieldrecords, but who is Michel Isorinne?Let' the artist answer himself : 

"If you ever heard the name Michel Isorinne, it was probably in some kind of connection with his involvement in the two man group D.Å.R.F.D.H.S. (@darfdhs)together with Jonas Rönnberg (@varg).

And if you heard his or read his name unaffiliated to D.Å.R.F.D.H.S. it was most likely from his vinyl debut this year on the Dutch label Field Records with the experimental ambient affair dubbed "Recollections of Forgotten Dreams".

But then again, you might be one of those few who actually knows he started his solo career with the release "Varseblivning" on the Northern Electronics (@northernelectronics) sub label Blodörn (@https://soundcloud.com/blod-rn) and that he followed up with two other tapes ("1980" & "2061") on Rimini based record store and label MIXED-UP (@mixedupitaly) and also put out yet another tape of collaborative works dubbed "Samarbeten" on Danish label Infinite Waves (@infinitewaves) in 2015.

Most likely you didn't know anything about the guy prior to this, and that totally fine because now you do."

Michel Isorinne

716 Exclusive Mix - Isorinne : Appearance In Memory

[EN]
Since beginning his career Krisyon has already shared the stage with some of the most widely known and esteemed musicians 
in the underground electronic music scene and has performed at many festivals and clubs throughout Europe.
In July 2015 Krisyon set up his own record label Tenebrous Music with a clear vision to provide
a professional platform for forward thinking concepts that don't necessarily conforming to norms. 
At roughly the same time in 2015, Krisyon joined Fnoob Techno Radio as a resident DJ. 

Krisyon's music can be described as dark, deep, minimal, atmospheric, and experimental.

Experience a tempest of feelings and emotions rising from the depths, consciousness frozen in an instant of the present. 
A transformation sets in motion and the path from darkness to the light returns.

[PL]
Od początku swojej kariery Krisyon dzielił scenę z jednymi z najbardziej znanych i cenionych muzyków podziemnej sceny elektronicznej, występując na wielu festiwalach i klubach w całej Europie. 

W lipcu 2015 roku postanowił założyć własną wytwórnię - Tenebrous Music. Powstała ona z potrzeby propagowania koncepcji myślowych, które mają zbyt nietypowy charakter, by wydać je „zewnętrznym” kanałem. W tym samym roku Krisyon dołączył jako rezydent do Fnoob Techno Radio.

Jego selekcja to brzmienia ciemne, głębokie, atmosferyczne i eksperymentalne - wszystko to zaklęte w estetyce minimal. 

Podążając mrocznymi ścieżkami, zatracając się w ciemnej otchłani, poczekajmy aż wróci światło i poznajmy je na nowo.

Stuckeyrella - Naked Lunch Label Night

Since the turn of the millennium, UK artist Alistair Wells has been putting out a tough and abrasive brand of experimental techno that cannot fail to arrest your attention. Always skewing existing ideas into his own new—often brutalist—ways of thinking, his output has seen him become an in demand live act and DJ who plays across three decks all over the world. He does so under the alias Perc, mostly on his own label Perc Trax, and at the same time he has also brought on a number of likeminded artists from Ansome to Manni Dee. His own catalogue boasts albums like Wicker & Steel and The Power And The Glory, and these have rightfully won him deserved time in the limelight. That fact proves that although Wells has been around for years, he is as vital now as ever. 

As such he brings something new to our mix series across an hour of lively selections. Very quickly settling into a high tempo, high impact groove, there are maximalist techno cuts, passages of angst ridden noise and thumping bangers all bolted together into something uncompromisingly physical and in your face. Franky, it’s a vital visceral offering that would work at any point in the past, present or future of techno.

Dekmantel Podcast 117 - Perc

Grounded podcast number 90 welcomes spanish DJ, 'LoKKoTRONN' who has been residing in New York City since the early 2000's. During his time there he struck up a bond with Jason T, who make up the dynamic 'Dos Lokos' duo. 

Together in 2011, they established the acclaimed Erratic emblem, curating exclusive techno events and running their own podcast series which has seen plenty of our favourite artists appear as guests over the 150+ episodes that have spanned across the last 6 years. 

Since its inception, Nico has been constantly refining and expanding his techno palette rendering the genre inextricable from his way of life and sensibility towards the arts and electronic music as a whole. His style when behind the decks can be characterised as a blend between melodic, acid bass lines layered with poignant, driving rhythms that penetrate equally the mind as they do the body. This mix is titled 'Medulla Oblongata'.

Svreca needs little introduction. The Semantica label head has carved out a reputation in his hometown, Madrid, and internationally as a master of deep, hypnotic, forward-thinking techno.

For our One Year celebration at ://aboutblank in Berlin in May 2017, he held us spellbound under the glow of the late-spring sun with this luminescent mix of colours, textures, and sounds.

We are very excited to present the live recording of this set as the latest installation in our mix series.
