Rave Child Unmasked: Alfonsvs Reveals New EP “I Got U”

After a series of releases that captured the attention of top tier DJs and producers, such as Peggy Gou, Laurent Garnier, Daniel Avery, and Âme, to name a few, the mysterious Rave Child steps into the spotlight. Behind the name responsible for three standout EPs on the Porto-based label Kokölò is Alfonsvs, who now unveils Rave Child as his freshest alias project.

On the early days of 2025, Alfonsvs contributed to the VA compilation of the renowned Portuguese techno label Elberec, further expanding his reach. Now, he returns under the Rave Child moniker for Kokölò’s first release of 2025: “I Got U,” a three-track EP accompanied by a remix by acclaimed Mexican duo Zombies in Miami.

The title track, “I Got U,” sets the tone with a dreamy yet unrestrained energy. The 140 BPM groove is layered with organ sequences, acoustic percussion, and atmospheric pads, creating a playful and nostalgic composition.
“Dub 3720” takes a more robust approach, incorporating driving drums and a resonant bassline. The interplay of rhythm and melody is amplified by the introduction of a lead synth that elevates the track’s momentum.

Zombies in Miami bring their signature latino touch to the remix of “Dub 3720.” A fast- paced groove blends with piano-House chords and vocal textures, delivering a reinterpretation with distinct rhythmic vitality, which the duo creatively named “Latino Dream Remix”.

The EP concludes with “Higher Power”, a in-your-face track characterized by distorted percussion, a saturated organ synth line, and an euphoric vocal sample. This track pays homage to the classic sounds of the late ’90s while maintaining a contemporary edge.

The release features artwork by David Duarte, whose design reflects themes of connection and unity. The imagery explores the forces that bring individuals together in moments of shared experience, aligning with the EP’s musical narrative.

“I Got U” by Rave Child will be available on Kokölò in March 2025.
