Release: ReFractor - Phantom Effect
World Wide Release: 7 November, 2025


Promo: 
Phonix Records is proud to present the long overdue debut album from ReFractor - Phantom Effect. After many years and numerous releases honing his craft, ReFractor (Luan Boes / South Africa) put together this magnum opus. 

Intrigued by the ever changing landscape of science and technology, ReFractor focused on the fleeting and profound place of music in society. Over the journey of 9 tracks - this album covers a variety of soundscapes and textures. 

Starting with the epic and slowly building dancefields of “Ivy”, to the precise laser cut “Clockwork Failure” and then to the hard hitting and  grim tech monster of “Qubit”. The title track - “Phantom Effect” is a serious groover which sets the tone for things to come. With “Blizzard” ReFractor takes things to the next level, an epic and driving track that leads perfectly into ReFractor’s remix of Deliriant (Shane Renew/South Africa) classic from 2007 - “Phase Me”. A perfectly balanced combination of new and old - the remix is destined to be a crowd favorite.

The album winds down arch starts in style with “Eclipse” - a serious sci fi groover that blends ReFractor’s own brand of space scapes with a hint of melody. Followed by “Connect the Dots” - a wild story of shifting dimensions and unrelenting basslines. To finish things, ReFractor stretched out his sonic muscles and our sonic reality - giving birth to the sleazy and slinky psybient story of the “Naughty Robot”. A dimensional portal into space squelch and deep soundscapes, a fitting farewell that captures the fever dream of the Phantom Effect. 

A big thanks to Deliriant for allowing us to remix his work, Scorb (Ady Conor/UK) at TRK Mastering for the pristine masters and X-Side (Luis Cruz/Mexico) at Pentagraphix Design for his excellent design work. 

With that said - take us to your speakers, open your minds to listen and receive and close your eyes to see the Phantom Effect.

csxlab.org is Francisco Vasconcelos, self-taught photographer born in Portugal and currently based in Berlin. He has a Bachelor’s Degree in Architecture, and has worked for architecture offices such has Kyiokazu Arai Kyoto & Sou Fujimoto Architects Tokyo.

Amateur photographer since the age of 12 (1990), carrying the Father Zeiss Voigtländer Icarex 35cs camera until 2006 when the arrival of the Digital allowed me to photograph almost in a diary like. Together with the Canon EOS 350D I started to carry it with me to everywhere I went, including ... Clubbing.

With time my photos started to get some appreciation and i got some works for some clubs, mainly Pitch through 2007, and started with a more professional attitude (not just photographing because i was there) but requested to do the cover of the events, an invitation by 1ªLinha from Portugal; an event producer now based in Brazil.

From 2007 until today, I have been photographing music events such as Goa-Festivals, concerts, clubbing, in many countries in which I lived, Portugal, Germany, Netherlands, Greece, Japan.

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.
