Phi Phi et Marc Denuit unissent à nouveau leurs forces, cette fois-ci sur le superbe 'The Crossing Mind' qui fait suite à leur dernière collaboration avec 'Substructure'. Phi Phi a été une force constante dans la musique progressive et trance au fil des ans, restant fidèle à ses racines avec un éventail impressionnant de résidences, de performances dans des clubs et d'apparitions dans des festivals qui lui ont valu un statut légendaire. Son dévouement et sa passion pour le genre sont évidents dans chacune des pièces qu'il crée. Nous sommes tout aussi ravis que Marc revienne sur le label, après avoir déjà contribué au sein d'Innerphonic, connu pour ses productions de haute qualité. DJ depuis 1984, Marc a notamment effectué des résidences dans les meilleurs clubs belges. Il est passé à la production, livrant une musique exceptionnelle aux côtés de Mad Gregor depuis 2018. C'est fantastique d'avoir les deux artistes de retour avec nous chez Bonzai Progressive.

'The Crossing Mind' ouvre l'album, nous emmenant sur un chemin trippant et posant un groove progressif luxuriant dans le processus. Des percussions roulantes, des tambours percutants et une ligne de basse pulsée créent un premier acte dynamique. Des effets amples et des micro-trottoirs enchanteurs créent de la tension dans le groove, rehaussant l'ambiance sur la piste de danse. Une pause sublime révèle des qualités cinématographiques avant que nous ne nous dirigions vers la conclusion et plus de cette pure bonté progressive. 'Brainstomper' est le suivant, complétant la sortie avec un voyage proggy à combustion lente et puissamment profond. Des nappes évolutives reposent sur un lit de batteries serrées et de percussions brillantes, tandis que des basses épaisses soutiennent le bas de gamme. Sur la pause, nous entrons dans un monde cosmique, rempli d'effets spatiaux et d'arpèges hypnotiques qui créent une atmosphère plus sombre. Une coupe forte et solide qui s'adaptera certainement aux décors de voyage.

Phi Phi & Marc Denuit - Brainstomper (Original Mix)

This set is a collection of tracks from artists who have inspired me over the past 35 years. I believe it has evolved into a positive mix, which feels especially welcome in these strange times the world is experiencing. Each track captures the vibe that many of us were drawn to during those unforgettable years of the ‘90s and early ‘00s. I've also included a few newer tracks to keep the flow of the mix feeling organic. I truly hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed creating it.

Peace & Love

Phi Phi returns to Bonzai Progressive alongside label debutant Ignace Paepe, with the superb ‘Luminous Waves’. Over the years, Phi Phi has been a constant force in the progressive and trance music scene, remaining deeply connected to his musical origins. With numerous residencies, club sets, and festival performances under his belt, he has earned a legendary reputation among his peers. His passion and steadfast dedication to the genre are evident in every track he produces. We are delighted to welcome him back once again. Belgian DJ, producer and actor Ignace Paepe realised their passion for electronic music at age 15 and their love for House and Techno music led them to iconic venues like Cherry Moon, inspiring a lifelong connection to the scene. After acquiring their first DJ equipment in 1994, Ignace became a regular in Belgium's music scene but eventually stepped back to pursue a healthier lifestyle in 2000. In 2019, they returned to music with a radio show on Villa Bota, blending vinyl and digital DJing. Today, Ignace shares their journey of self-acceptance, promoting individuality and self-expression through music and film.

‘Luminous Waves’ opens the release with driving beats, plucky bass notes and airy FX. Shuffling percussion patterns add a rhythmic complexity the powers the groove. Dreamy atmospherics unfold, with ethereal pads and delicate melodies for an otherworldly feel. The bassline is warm and plucky, balancing the low-end while a gritty, bassy synth injects a dose of energy. The break opens up the spectrum, shepherding in infectious dreamy textures that give way to a short build-up and back into full-on mode for the duration. ‘Radial Flow’ concludes the release and bursts with intensity from the start. Driven by powerful beats and spritely hi-hats that keep the rhythm crisp and lively, Infectious percussions add to the groove, while a rolling bassline shores up the low-end with steady momentum. Gritty stabs inject a rawness, contrasting with emotive melodies that bring a touch of euphoria. Playful arpeggios dance through the mix, adding brightness and movement, creating a dynamic flow that will keep you hooked.

Jaydee is joined by two iconic artists, Manu Riga and Phi Phi, also known as Kayinda, who return to the label with their Dub Remix. After collaborating on multiple projects over the years, the duo officially formed Kayinda, gaining recognition through a series of standout tracks and remixes released on respected labels. With each release, they continue to solidify their presence in the music scene. The remix here takes us into darker territory, driving forward with solid, punchy beats and shimmering hi-hats, creating a deep, hypnotic groove. Layered with rhythmic percussions and droning basses, the energy builds in a moody undercurrent as dark stabs echo in a call-and-response pattern. Trippy, Hammond-style riffs swirl through the mix while Infectious synths pull you in, evoking nostalgic vibes reminiscent of the mighty Plastic Dreams. A truly immersive, late-night journey that is not to be missed.
