A􏰀ter 3 entries in previous House o􏰀 (S)Punk compilations showcasin􏰁 the wide ran􏰁e o􏰀 her production style o􏰀 warm play􏰀ul techno, Belarusian queer artist Lola Kay (she/her) invites us deeper into her 􏰀ast-paced bouncy hope􏰀ul dreamy trance-in􏰀used hard 􏰁roove with her debut EP XTASY DANCE PROJECT.

Truly “Second Summer o􏰀 Love” in spirit, 90’s UK trance in sound inspiration, her EP is a
romantic mani􏰀esto centerin􏰁 mind􏰀ul joy and community bondin􏰁 as a tool 􏰀or queer liberation. With this EP and her DJ-sets as a staple o􏰀 the Barcelona scene, she is creatin􏰁 the soundtrack 􏰀or OUR Third Summer o􏰀 Love: the pandemic-born under􏰁round queer rave renaissance under the infinite Barcelona sun.

Openin􏰁 up the EP, Livin􏰁 Breathin􏰁 Xtasy encapsulates this ecstatic empowerin􏰁 􏰀eelin􏰁. From the sample “let’s make this our le􏰁acy, livin􏰁 breathin􏰁 ecstasy” used as a mantra 􏰀or celebration o􏰀 collective solace, to a pumpin􏰁 popcorn bass and dreamy pads, the tracks speaks to your body as a whole : the floatiness o􏰀 the head and unstoppable stompin􏰁 o􏰀 the 􏰀eet.

Followin􏰁, Dancefloor is Home is about lettin􏰁 􏰁o and this moment you’re ready to shake yoursel􏰀 out o􏰀 the rut, an invitation to 􏰀or􏰁et it all, surrounded, cared, empowered, celebrated by your 􏰀riends in a joy􏰀ul care􏰀ree ni􏰁ht out, whose tender memories float in your chest 􏰀or weeks a􏰀ter. Makina-reminiscent hi􏰁h ener􏰁y 􏰁roove carry an unapolo􏰁etically 􏰁ooey melody 􏰀or those oversweet moments.

“To be, or not to be?” we all know that question and the pandemic has made this universal existential leap o􏰀 􏰀aith a survival method to the historic hardship. With Crossroads, 􏰀ueled by melancholic pads, a heady melody and a built-in tension throu􏰁h the dreamscape, Lola Kay states that 􏰀or􏰁in􏰁 ahead is the only way throu􏰁h.

Closin􏰁 the EP is Pure Emotion : built on a vocal sample 􏰀rom the BBC documentary on 90’s UK raves “E 􏰀or Ecstasy”, the track is driven by a round 􏰁roove 􏰁allopin􏰁 throu􏰁h this classic Hard House 􏰀eel.

Some visions feel like they were written in the dark long before we arrived. Alquimia Bosque was one of those callings, quiet at first, yet impossible to ignore. After a year and a half, this vision awakens, bringing together 35 tracks from 37 unique projects, each carrying its own emotion and hidden light. What began as a simple thought grew into a living entity shaped by the energy of every artist who became part of it. Along the way, this project became a mirror, teaching patience in chaos, trust in moments of doubt, and revealing the beauty that rises from true unity. To every artist who shared their heart: thank you. Your belief and authenticity are the reason this exists. This compilation stands as a timeless offering to the universe. I invite you to become one with it.
