Facta and K-LONE’s Wisdom Teeth imprint returns to the V/A format with ‘Pattern Gardening’ - a substantial new collaborative project that leans head-first into the label’s love of minimal-, micro- and tech-house. Across 22 original commissions, the record carves out the label’s distinct, contemporary take on the sound - one that swims between warm, bleepy, rolling, dubby, psychedelic and bass-heavy channels across its duration. Contributors include Polygonia, rRoxymore, Lurka, Piezo, Daisy Moon, Facta, K-LONE and more.
By now, Wisdom Teeth and its founders are well known for their unabashed love of minimal and tech house, which - alongside ambient, UK club music, experimental electronics and a broad palette of other influences - makes up a key cornerstone of their distinctive sound. The duo’s DJ sets often see them mixing ‘00s gems from labels like Perlon, Mosaic, Minibar and [a:rpia:r] with more contemporary club sounds, creating a hybrid style that sits somewhere between Balearic terraces and dark UK club basements. Likewise, the label has become known as a go-to outlet for artists occupying a similar crossover space, with names like Jorg Kuning, Parris, Steevio, Duckett, Leif and LUXE all known for pushing house and techno into experimental and refreshing new territories.
‘Pattern Gardening’ follows loosely on from the label’s previous V/A releases ‘To Illustrate’ (2021) and ‘Club Moss’ (2023), which explored downtempo (100bpm) and uptempo (150-170bpm) styles respectively. Here, the focus is fixed on lush, groovy, quirky 4x4 jams, joining the dots between a global spread of producers that bring new energy and perspective to these well-explored frameworks.
The record welcomes back a number of historic label favourites - Lurka, Piezo, Duckett, Iglew, Shielding and label heads Facta & K-LONE - whilst introducing a number of exciting new names to the roster. Veterans like Tom Ellis and Jichael Mackson rub shoulders with relative newcomers like Kaishandao, Abentis and A. Wild. Across its duration, the record moves from melodic psychedelia (Polygonia, rRoxymore, FTP Doctor & Tenzia) through percussive groovers (Sub Basics, Brainrot, Saudade) and bassy rollers (Daisy Moon, B. McQueen & Theorist) before unspooling into an early-hours, dubbed-out haze (Duckett, Shielding).
As is always the case with Wisdom Teeth’s output, the results fit somewhere between the club and a more contemplative, home-listening headspace, with texture, melody and mood afforded as much significance as rhythm and functionality.
The artwork features photography by Hong Kong-based photographer Jimi Chiu, who captures seemingly ordinary corners of city life in glossy, cinematic detail.
