Patrick Mason steps into his own sound with “Hood Dub 7” - this first track from the forthcoming Glory EP marks a new chapter on his own MASONICS imprint.
October 16, 2026 - Patrick Mason teases “HD7”, with his vocals slicing through the first offering from a three-track EP that brings a dark and stormy sonic attack to the floor, capturing the energy and emotions that have underpinned his journey from Berlin underground to Awakenings, Coachella, Tomorrowland and beyond
“HD7” reimagines Paranoid London’s “Paris Dub 1” - or as Patrick tells it:
“‘Hood Dub 7’ is my love letter to Berlin, paying homage to my early days at Berghain. ‘Paris Dub 1’ was one of the first techno tracks I really connected with, and I wanted to capture that same feeling I had when I first heard it, but twist it into something more contemporary, dark and rooted in my own experiences”
Rolling percussion and a dubbed-out bassline drive the track, while Patrick’s searing vocals add a glint of blade in the shadows. Soft, atmospheric leads sit against hard, minimal kicks, creating a fusion of euphoria and darkness that feels at home on a smoke-filled Berlin dancefloor.

An extension of Mason’s own identity, MASONICS is deeply rooted in the full spectrum of underground culture, embracing its diversity, contradictions, and constant evolution with the aim of connecting the music’s radical history with the next generation of boundary-breaking artists, while offering a platform for experimentation, especially for those who often find their access ‘denied’.
This month, MASONICS takes over Lofi for ADE, bringing its world of creativity and self- expression to one of the city’s most renowned venues. On Wednesday, October 21st, Patrick will curate a night bringing together established and emerging talent, with Laure Croft, Yasmin Regisford , Shinedoe and special guest, Chicago-born, Techno legend, DJ Rush. Further artistry comes in the form of Soraya Schulthess, the German choreographer whose DANCÆ collective is making waves internationally and will perform a specially commissioned work as the evening unfolds.

With “Hood Dub 7”, Patrick brings together the influences and experiences that have shaped his sound, while opening the door to a wider vision for MASONICS. As the first release from “Glory”, the track sets the tone for what’s to come - music rooted in his own story, but connected to the wider culture around it.
