Phillax - Emerald Flame (EKT2401)

Ektoplazm proudly presents Emerald Flame, a bold collection of psychedelic techno-trance and spooky disco from the London-based virtuoso Phillax. This thunderous foursome is absolutely rife with spellbinding melodies and deep, driving rhythms, all primed and ready for a proper festival dust-up. From the propulsive mechanics of the title track to the necromantic funk of its eerie final jaunt, this release oozes with psychotropic intent of the highest order. Gather 'round and revel in the radioactive glow of these precision-crafted dancefloor weapons!

NYX Festival & Esoteric Festival - Psychedelic Circus Launch Party QLD

Happy New Year, amigos! 🎉 Missed you all, but I’m back—and let me tell you, there’s a lot of new music in the works. I thought it’d be the perfect time to ease back into action, slowly but surely.

To kick things off, I’m sharing one of my favorite tracks, the good ol’ Ghastly Deluxe. Originally released in 2018 on Ektoplazm 👌 Have you heard this gem before? If not, now’s your chance!

Here’s the original write-up by DJ Basilisk, who helped craft the EP’s description back in the day:

Subliminal Bouquet is the debut release from The Nuclear Rites, a Mexican collective focused on unconventional and dystopian aesthetic expressions for the most hardcore underground DJs and sonic dissidents around the planet. Anyer Quantum leads the charge with this psychedelic techno triptych, three tracks infused with influences from across the spectrum shining darkly in the night
