As the year winds down, we wanted to send you off with a bang – a deep, rumbling bang delivered straight from the Utrecht underground by the one and only Vand. We've known this sonic sorcerer for ages, watching him transform from a bright Dutch talent to an artist whose output has been recognized and cherished in underground scenes worldwide. 

Over the years, Vand has made a reputation for himself as a producer who is equally prolific working alongside like-minded piers like Bas Dobbelaer, Alfred Czital, and Shoal, as well as working solo where he conjures deep, dubby adventures that twist and turn like Escher sketches, always one step ahead of the dancefloor drone.
Releases on labels like Something Happening Somewhere, Nyame, Alpenglühen, Harmony Rec, and Konstrukt speak for themselves. 

Speaking of labels, Vand just launched ISOTOOP, a sonic beacon birthed from the ashes of a great event collective (initially founded by Van Anh and featuring Ben Buitendijk, Shoal, and Koen Hoets). Their debut, a Vand & Shoal juggernaut called Voal, has been on heavy rotation in our HQ and has found its way to crates of many DJs worldwide.

With that fresh fire in our ears, we present you with Vand's mix for us – a darkroom dub journey built for late-night explorations. Buckle up because this isn't a stroll in the park; it's a 200km/h Autobahn voyage on cruise control, smooth as silk yet peppered with enough twists and turns to keep your heart hammering. Deep bass dives will massage your soul, dubby echoes will swirl around your head, and when you think you've got it figured out, Vand throws in a curveball that'll leave you grinning like a Cheshire cat.
This mix is a reminder that the best journeys often take you to unexpected places. And hey, who knows what 2024 holds for Vand and ISOTOOP? One thing's for sure: we'll be right here, front row and center, ready to lose ourselves in the sound.

We were greatly enchanted to listen to Claudio PRC and Ness’ new exclusive mix for SMOKE MACHINE; this unique recording was carefully mixed & edited to its essence aka “The Lost Tape”! We must say that this is an absolute gem shines out!

It contains a light yet calm rhythm throughout the whole mix, and was almost like leading the ears and mind to somewhere mysterious; or yet was following the vibe along a long corridor to a hidden wonderland?

Delicately crafted, warm, curious and engaging. Simply beautiful!

UN #10 The Gods Planet

@hydrangeamusic ’s life as a producer and DJ began relatively recently, when in 2014 she began expressing the quietness, wonder and intensity of nature in techno. For this prodigious French talent, creating and selecting music is an act of entering a deeper dimension, both transcendent and grounded in the hypnotic beauty of the natural world.

As a producer, she has released her own productions – which are lucid, mesmerising, arresting – on @annulled_music, @two-two-records, and @silent-season.

As a DJ, she is equally inspired by the dancefloors she plays to across Europe as by the nature around her home. She describes this mix for Patterns of Perception as a musical trip for one of her walks in the forest, creating an inner journey while being connected with the surroundings.

Wherever you happen to listen to it, we are confident it will have a similar effect on you.
