DBR - Mix Up Triple J Mix

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.

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.

OK, please excuse the distortion and varied levels at the start of the set, it settles down after about 4-5 mins. It's live and humans were involved.

Stimme Der Energie

Hailing from Seattle, Korean-American artist @fugal expresses both dynamism and nuance. As part of the @secondnatureseattle collective, he’s one of the driving forces behind a string of renowned events in Seattle and the US, as well as an impressive young label which has seen contributions from fellow secondnature residents @archivistseattle and @simictacoma, along with @smoreira and Svreca (@semantica-records).

Now based in Berlin, Fugal has continued to refine his rhythmic, emotive sound, with gigs across Berlin and abroad. On the production front, 2017/18 has proven to be a fruitful period, with a recent co-release with Archivist on @volte_face_bleed’s BleeD imprint, and his sophomore secondnature release coming up in mid-February.

With his contribution to the Patterns of Perception mix series, Fugal has taken a measured approach, veering away from more functional dancefloor sounds, and instead drawing inspiration from the warmth found amongst the grey Berlin winter. Toeing the line between experimental sounds and deep techno, Fugal’s mix delves into the intricate - focusing on musical phrases and creative transitions between widely varying tempos.

Mechatronicast #10: Norwell (live)

An unerringly astute selector and producer, DBR (@breezydbr) is among the most exciting of young acts within the buzzing Melbourne scene. With an affinity for texture and sound design owing to his background as a sound designer for games and film, his productions and DJ sets heave with dissonance and unpredictability, yet are charged with echoes of emotion and melodic complexity.

Patterns of Perception 28, recorded live on vinyl and digital in his home studio, encapsulates his unique musical leanings, and at the same time represents the cutting edge of ambient/experimental electronic music. Layers of electronics dance with organic acoustics to create a vivid, compelling whole.

Patterns of Perception resident @andreasmaan has been injecting a unique sense of drive and intensity into Patterns of Perception’s dance floors since the club night began almost two years ago.

Alongside his dance-floor oriented material, however, he has long cultivated a wide collection of arrhythmic recordings, ranging across a diverse spectrum of genres, from ambient, minimalist and musique concrete, to medieval chant.

In Patterns of Perception 29, Andreas Maan brings some of these aspects of his sound palate to the fore, weaving a path through the sparse textures and rich atmospherics that these disparate musical elements have to offer.

One of the most distinctive talents to emerge out of Melbourne’s techno scene, Mosam Howieson's (https://soundcloud.com/mos-how) singular brand of experimental live techno is texturally colourful, warm and immersive, drawing in listeners and dancers alike.

Patterns of Perception 30 sees Howieson set out to both challenge and captivate the listener, expertly weaving an array of textures, genres and atmospheres into a intriguing, powerful body of work. 

Having already released on @silent-season and @further-records, among others, his next EP is slated for release on Butter Records, and features remixes from Wata Igarashi (https://soundcloud.com/wata) and Sleep D (https://soundcloud.com/sleepd). His European debut at Belgium's Meakusma festival has also been scheduled for September, signalling what will no doubt be a breakout year for the Australian artist.

@johnosborn moved to Berlin in the late 1990’s, in the aftermath of the fall of the wall, when the city was heaving with electronic music and full of empty spaces in which creativity could thrive. From his first gig at WMF, on the bill alongside @dixon and @mitja-prinz, to his residency at Panorama Bar for @scubaofficial’s famed SUB:STANCE parties, he quickly became a regular fixture in the local electronic music scene – and has remained there since. 
As the head of DRED (and formerly of TANSTAAFL RECORDS), John has found space to express his creativity away from the dancefloor, both as a producer/remixer and as a selector and champion of emerging and established artists.

This adroit, blistering mix is a live recording of his sunrise set from Patterns of Perception’s Two Years party at @about-blank-berlin on 5-6 May, 2018.
