Read our interview with Jane Fitz here: https://www.patternsofperception.com/post/a-chat-with-jane-fitz

To introduce @janefitz as a legend of the scene borders on understatement. The UK selector has earned an almost cult-like following born out of her annual sets at Freerotation festival, co-founding London’s Night Moves parties (with good friend Jade Seatle - @jade-green), a more recent residency at revered club the Pickle Factory, a monthly show on @rinsefm, and a pre-pandemic touring schedule that took in countless clubs and festivals the world over. She herself admits to being committed to the scene for life, driven by a deep appreciation of the music above all else – and a constant desire to surprise both herself and her audience equally.

For her Patterns of Perception 82, Jane has recreated some of the warmth she felt during her visit to Berlin for a b2b with Eric Cloutier (@cloutier) at our party in November 2019, an event which remains a vivid memory on both sides. The mix features many records collected over the past year of the pandemic and not yet played out, giving it a sense of urgency and an uplifting quality that, for her, recalls an outdoor festival set in better days. “A bit of me was kind of longing for playing on the side of a Japanese mountain again or for all those festivals you do in the summer,” she says. “I wanted to have people stomping on a forest floor.”

Patterns of Perception 82 - Jane Fitz

For home use only’ is an anti-club social, a chance to get to know someone/something. A series of transmissions purely dedicated to exploring the other side.

Well, that was a weird couple of months. Apologies for the lack of transmissions but I’m sure everyone understands the complete lack of motivation and inspiration that has been cast across the world. That being said, it hasn’t slowed everyone down that's for sure. I’m completely backed up with incredible mixes from incredible people, so let’s get back to our original program. 

In celebration of such, we’re excited to return with a (gentle) bang in the form of episode 60, via the incredibly talented Kia. Unless you’ve been living under a rock (which is completely understandable) you would’ve noticed Kia’s light in many facets; an incredibly talented DJ, a passionate and dedicated label boss, and associated mix series runner (big ol tip’o’that to Animalia // link below), woolen based wunderkind, and most importantly a fucking lovely human being. 

And if you do know Kia then as you would expect, her submission to the series is nothing short of breathtaking. A perfectly constructed soundscape, daydreaming of an above-average paradise. Emotionally inciting on all fronts, it’s nice to feel things again and I think this is perfectly timed with the world opening back up again. The subtly rhythmic pulses of 4x4 drums reactivating that lost sense of liberating yourself on the dance floor (finally back in our sights) and the ethereal harmonies that keep you grounded on the bedroom floor. What Kia manages to do in an hour is exceptional, a short story that translates to a full novel, a true testament to her talent and understanding of music and all of the concepts that go with it. Best served through headphones with room to move.

Enjoy it every way you can. 
 
I hope you’re all well and thank you for listening. 
 
Love.

LOTI - Dusk Delay (Openlab Radio) - Episode 19

"A sonic fabric of light and calm, where each moment echoes like a deep breath, opening invisible spaces for quiet contemplation and gentle healing. Minimalism and precision come together to shape crisp, delicate atmospheres that invite you to linger without hurry."

Jo Johnson is a British musician whose three-decade journey spans punk, techno, and contemplative electronic minimalism. A former guitarist for the influential 90s riot grrrl band Huggy Bear, she later immersed herself in the underground techno scene,  joining the Bleep43 collective in 2001 and founding its label. Jo’s solo work explores immersive and emotive sonic landscapes through synthesizers and effects, influenced by pioneering women in electronic music. Her albums have been released on Further Records, Going In, Mysteries of the Deep, and Castles in Space. She is a regular performer at festivals and venues like Freerotation, The Purcell Room, Cafe Oto, and Parallel.

In 2025, Jo launched Alterations, an evolving album project released track-by-track on Bandcamp, each piece accompanied by exclusive materials for subscribers. She has collaborated with pianist Hilary Robinson, releasing experimental works on 9128.live and performing at events like Daylight Music. As a DJ, Jo has appeared on platforms such as Refuge Worldwide, Monument Waves, and Music for Programming. Beyond music, she has contributed to a Huggy Bear book project compiling the band’s zines and history. Jo also co-curates Bleep43’s deep listening events in unique spaces across London, championing boundary-pushing artists in ambient and experimental sound.

Promises (Instrumental)

🎧 BBS5 – End of Time | Fear no more the heat o’ the sun

“Fear no more the heat o’ the sun” — whispered, as if from another time.
Between dream and decay arises a moment of quiet beauty.
Echoes of light and darkness — a voice beyond the veil.
Where silence turns to sound — and sound becomes memory.

A poetic soundscape by BBS5 / 5 Records — a reflection on time, silence, and the beauty of endings.

„Fear no more the heat o’ the sun“ — flüsternd, wie aus einer anderen Zeit.
Zwischen Traum und Vergänglichkeit entsteht ein Moment stiller Schönheit.
Echos aus Licht und Dunkelheit — eine Stimme jenseits des Schleiers.
Wo Stille zu Klang wird — und Klang zur Erinnerung.

End of Time | Fear no more the heat o’ the sun

Intensely chill hypnotic vibes coming from Melbourne - for the #19th mix we’ve asked a talented young DJ from the other side of the planet named @kia-sydney. A few months ago we stumbled upon her mixes, and have been playing them over and over. We’re honoured to present the first mix of her on this hemisphere. Big thanks to Kia for making this one for us.

Conjuring memories of daydreaming in the midsts of suburbia. A new mix from @priori-ties

Some words from Priori: “I grew up in a working class neighbourhood of Longueuil, Quebec, Canada. Being an only child in the suburbs meant I spent a lot of time daydreaming and contemplating my environment. I was a bit of a melancholic kid so post-punk and ambient music made a lot of sense to me when I discovered them. I stumbled upon an album called Strike by 154 by accident, probably wanting to download something else off of Kazaa. It really changed things for me as a teenager and I still hold it dear. There's a song from it in the mix, along with a bunch of other things that bring up similar feelings for me.”

“As for news:
Alex (Dust-e-1) and I are putting out a new record as ANF on NAFF, should be out April 26th.
Some more collabs and solo things coming out in the summer.”

Strichka review

Lobanov K. live at Strichka Festival

Recorded live at Nuits Sonores 2019, 15:00 - 18:00, before Donato Dozzy took over.
Marissa Cetin from Resident Advisor wrote about the afternoon:
"Unlike the other daytime curators, Lena Willikens chose to open La Sucrière's impressive main hall on Friday, playing alongside her usual back-to-back partner Vladimir Ivkovic. The two looked relaxed behind the decks, swaying, smoking and sometimes smiling. The crowd, less dense than during the other headliners due to the early start, were also in a good mood, using the extra space to feel out each beat of the slower selections. Much of the two hours felt like existing in the lagging moment of a sci-fi movie, just before a spaceship launches into warp speed (in a good way, I promise)."
