"We are thrilled to announce the release of our resident Shonen Bat’s first album. 
Following his involvement in our compilations and a few brief incursions across the Channel for our friends at Corrupt Data (see his EP “Shades of Disruption”) and GODDEZZ (see V/A “ON+ON+ON”), the 28-year-old producer from Reims eventually reaches the mark of the long-form, with flying colours indeed. In “Infinite Disorder”, he deftly conjugates techno influences, breakbeat, global club and electro with his distinctive rhythmic signature as well as outstanding futuristic aesthetic.

In twelve tracks, Shonen Bat demonstrates perfect mastery of sound design and narration in a fifty-minute opus with strains of solar punk, which resonates both on the dancefloor and your couch. 
An intertwinement of celestial voices, luxuriating pads and synthetic waterfalls with sharp beats and distorted bass precedes moments when the producer playfully stretches time with more ambient phases, before going for it again.
Among the top-flight tracks, you will find an ethereal anthem in “Artefacts”, speedy techno in “Western Nylon Fields”, and feisty breakbeats in “Automata”.

In this emotional roller coaster, the album constantly takes us back and forth between melancholy and euphory. 
Despite this duality symptomatic of our times, “Infinite Disorder” is undeniably a record of boundless optimism, at times bitter but always radiant. Take it as a kind of journal of a young raver who’s found his way through the philosophical values of a global rave culture, without borders, and humanistic."

PREMIERE: Shonen Bat - Find Me In The Rainforest (La Forge)

As a collective bringing together fifteen people (DJs, producers, plastic and graphic artists), La Forge has become in the past few years one of the main players in Reims’ electronic music scene. In a city scarred by a lack of true night institutions, they promote a protean aesthetic of techno music, without boundaries or taboos, throughout their "Crysta Ampullaris " compilations or their ‘Resonance’ and ‘Outrun’ events. Such artists as Simo Cell, Lisa More, François X, UF095, Elise Massoni, Laze, Hermeth, Renart, Sweely, Realitycheck, G’Boi & Jean-Mi, Maelstrom, Voiron, Bamao Yendé or M&C have yet played for them.

Nathan Zahef (La Forge/Cki7putt/Lune)

Pas encore pubère le jour où il s'est frotté à une platine pour la première fois, Nathan Zahef est l'incarnation parfaite du pur DJ. Des eaux houleuses d'une Techno juteuse aux remous d'une House excentrique, ce kid inarrêtable navigue sans perdre le cap, fort d'une patte reconnaissable entre mille. Explosif et généreux, le fer de lance du crew Remois La Forge n'a aucune peine à semer à la fois le fuel et les allumettes dans le club pour regarder avec un sourire en coin prendre le feu de joie.
