Release: Ionkhe - Bad Reputation EP
World Wide Release: 5th September, 2025


Promo: 
Phonix Records is especially proud to share the coming of Ionkhe's (Ivan Lugo/Mexico) long overdue EP. Its a story of hope and redemption. A release years in the making, once thought to be lost forever in a hard drive crash with many sonic gems. Then miraculously a year later - long forgotten backups emerged - giving this EP a new lease on life. And so we have come full circle and Ionkhe presents his sublime vision - 'Bad Reputation'.

The story starts with the ever grooving, ever evolving story of the ruthless 'Madame VanderSEXXX'. A cruel mistress, who toys with listeners until she finally has everyone stomping dancefloors. Tried and tested across dancefloors across Canada, Mexico and the USA - the Madame is destined to become a crowd favorite. With an opener like that, it's hard to not push things even further. Some would say it sets an expectation, and so 'Bad Reputation' rises to the challenge. Funky, groovy, and an in your face energy make this an alpha category monster. 

It is at this point, Ionkhe thought long and hard about what kind of vision he was creating. It wasn't truly complete until he had some fellow friends and aliens join in the fun. And who is our first guest star you may ask? Why, none other than the legendary sHiFt (Chris Hoy/South Africa). A joining of forces of epic proportions, which hits all the right tones - its groovy, brooding, and comes from a place of such deranged fun - behold the 'Intergalactic Treasure'! Morphing, shifting and distorting realities - this track is a sci-fi epic that leaves no one standing on the dancefloor - only stompers! 

Not to be outdone is the mystical final track - and second collaboration - 'La Relatividad Del Tiempo' with long time collaborator and amigo Absolute 9 (Carlos Ontiveros/Mexico). Constantly changing, this examination of time through the sonic lens is like a machine gone mad on discovering groove. Processors are humming at maximum efficiency as these two expertly reconstruct reality for listeners. A fitting farewell to the vision of 'Bad Reputation'.

Special thanks to Tron at Homegrown Audio for the crisp mastering, as well as all the artists involved. Enough said - crank up the volume, setup the dancefloor and let Ionkhe take over your sound system. Its time for him to show you the depths of his 'Bad Reputation'.

A pulse awakens the trees,
Whispers of melodies
Carried on the breeze.

Beneath the starlit canopy,
A rhythm calls the night,
NYX casts her magic,
Guiding spirits in flight.

Step into the unknown,
Where sound becomes your guide,
And surrender to the journey,
Let the music decide.

This first episode of a new series, curated by Hungarian hi-tech specialit, Tündérke, kicks off with ALIEN CHAOS and his set titled "Beyond the Obvious", about which he says: "This live set reveals a side of Alien Chaos that goes beyond expectations — a deep dive into sounds I don’t usually unleash. It’s a journey through hidden frequencies, untold stories, and sonic experiments that blur the lines of Hitech. Let yourself be surprised." ALIEN CHAOS is the Brazilian mind behind a decade-long journey through the realms of Psychedelic Hitech Trance. Active on dancefloors since 2009, Alien Chaos has carved out a unique sonic signature—fusing speed, intensity, and storytelling into every set and production.  With performances across Germany, Israel, Switzerland, Greece, Mexico, India, Poland, and beyond, Alien Chaos has ignited stages at iconic festivals like Hive Festival, Wonderland Festival, Freedom Blast, and Hitech Revolution. Each live appearance is a full-throttle experience, pushing boundaries and unlocking altered states through sound.  Beyond the decks, Alien Chaos runs a YouTube channel that has become a hub for Psytrance producers worldwide. Through in-depth tutorials, courses, and workshops, he shares his knowledge and passion—empowering the next wave of creators and strengthening the global psychedelic music community.  More than just music, Alien Chaos is a cultural force—embodying the rebellious spirit of the underground and contributing to the evolution of the psychedelic movement with every beat, byte, and broadcast.

𝇇
Somewhere between myth and mystery, the All Seeing Eye watches - not with judgment, but with knowing. It peers beyond time, across veils of illusion, catching secrets whispered in the dark and truths yet to be spoken. 
A single eye, ancient and eternal, cradling the universe in its gaze. Enlightenment dances in its pupil; power hums in its silence. It is protector and observer, comfort and question - reminding us that we are never truly alone, yet always seeing

In 2010, Paulo Etnarama was inspired to support fresh up and coming psytrance producers acts in twilight psytrance, and thus Phonix Records was born in London. Later that year he found his partner in crime - Ishikawa, a fellow traveler in the cosmos who shared the same vision. Together they worked tirelessly with the aim of providing sonic scientists and wizards the means to be heard by audiences galaxy wide.

Fast-forward 3 years to 2013, Etnarama goes on sabbatical and Ishikawa takes the reigns to manage the label. Since then - Phonix Records has now branched from its home in the UK with representation across USA, Portugal, and South Africa. Over 15 years and over 50 releases, they have released fresh releases featuring all the flavors of the twilight spectrum. Today they proudly support an ever-growing roster of new and established producers from across the globe including France, South Africa, Mexico, Portugal and Canada.

Focusing completely on the music for the twilight hours, Phonix Records has constantly been pushing to release nothing but the very best in super powered, hyper charged, 100% unadulterated twilight psytrance! They strive to leave their mark on the psytrance scene as a serious label known to support the music they love.
