Ferdinger’s (@ferdinger_ ) — Partly Cloudy [LIP016] on Life In Patterns (@life_in_patterns_ )
_
After almost two years, LIP016 marks Ferdinger’s return to his own imprint. “Partly Cloudy” features five cuts spanning a wide range of styles and timbres, from UK-infused breakbeat textures to energetic dub and acid techno with a melodic edge. While still firmly aimed at the dance floor, the record carries a more introspective and inward-looking tone - an attempt to make sense of the current climate in the world and within our societies. “Partly Cloudy” is set for release on 3 April 2026 on vinyl and digital formats.

LIP017 welcomes Bochum-based artist @aleeks001 to @life_in_patterns_ . Despite being born in the early 2000s, he is deeply inspired by the sound of that era, channeling its essence into a forward-thinking take on modern techno. He has already made a name for himself with releases on ARTS, Oktogon, and Rave Your Soul.
His mini album “Bloom” offers a fresh reinterpretation of old-school foundations. Blending early 2000s influences with contemporary techno aesthetics, the record delivers a modern edge while remaining rooted in the fundamentals - driving rhythms, percussion-heavy grooves, and powerful low-end energy. Rich chords and atmospheric pads add emotional depth, shaping a distinctive and immersive sonic identity.
Spanning eight tracks, “Bloom” moves effortlessly from peak-time intensity to ambient textures and functional club tools, capturing the full spectrum of Aleeks’s sound and providing versatility for every moment of the night.
“Bloom” will be released on June 5, 2026, on vinyl and digital formats.
Tracklist:
1 No Future Without Past
2 Boxcut
3 Crasher
4 Just Flowers
5 Echotex
6 Deep Liner
7 Tool 8
8 Streets of Shanghai
+ Locked grooves on the vinyl edition

My set from @unfold.ldn at @fold.ldn earlier this year is finally online on my SoundCloud (link in story/bio). It’s the second part, which was a DJ set. The first part was my live set, which I might upload later. Was quite happy when listening back to the mix, it nicely captures the great energy on that day and I’m rarely that satisfied with a mix of mine. Hope you’ll enjoy it as much as I did.

I was gonna pay @hardwax_official a visit on the release day of “Partly Cloudy” - unfortunately it turned out to be Good Friday so everything was closed 🙃🥲
Still had a great time in Berlin though and thanks everyone who came to see me play at @renate.berlin - great energy in the intimate black room! Special shoutout to @blackmirrorpark for the invitation and for being such a kind and wonderful host + to @marsch.music for the nice opening set! Hope to be back soon 🫶🏻🥹
