Vell’s debut EP for Boiled Wonderland Records, ‘Floating Mists, Warm Vistas’, is a diverse, club-ready new collection of techno. Hailing from the UK and now based in Bangkok, the EP presents his skills and range as a producer as he combines live looped instruments with complex polytonal drums and acid flanged synths. The EP comes with a remix by Dubai-based producer, Rudoh (Jugaar Records) on the final track ‘Burning Trees’. Rudoh's remix showcases his skill set as a beat shaper, masterfully cutting and slicing through breaks and introducing new vocal samples to craft a high-impact banger sure to ignite every dancefloor.

Pressure is the third EP from Parisian DJ and producer BJF (@djbjf). It follows Iridescent and Uprooted, released in 2020 and 2022. A key member of the collective, label, and media Couvre x Chefs, BJF has released original tracks on several record labels (Lowup, Egregore, XXIII, Sacrilejio Records, Météo ) and a bunch of thoughtful edits. His productions have been played on Boiler Room, NTS, Rinse FM, Rinse France, Hör, BBC, Reprezent, etc.

Just months after the acclaimed Uprooted, BJF is back on the label arm of Couvre x Chefs with an explosive three-track EP ready to sweat clubs and shake festivals. Entitled Pressure, this one reinforces the style of BJF which he refines release after release: resolutely club percussive titles, punctuated with characteristic ad-libs, increasingly (re)worked vocals, and sharp melodies. On the percussion side, the producer from Greater Paris finely selects cuts with precision and reassembles to the millimeter the most boiling rhythms from the four corners of the planet. The result is by nature unclassifiable - post club, hybrid club, or global club - but promises to make everyone agree on the dancefloors of Melbourne to Saõ Paulo via Paris or Berlin.

Various Bangers Re-Thrashed

PREMIERE: Rebel Sketchy - Good To You (Crucial Todd Remix) [The Payback Project]

She was dancing all alone, the room was crowded but it were as if she was the only ethereal creature of note. For everyone else was not there really, at least not in the same way as she was. She was really there. An eternal body which moved and weaved between the walls long after everyone had left the club. It was as if her very spirit lived within the brickwork which made this house a home. Perhaps that is what it was, her home.

Wendy was her name but it could be anything to anyone given the time of day. For she was all things to all people - a happy smile, a guilty conscience, a careless whisper, a slow dance, a wild romance. She was a moment in time - a vision in the midst of the night only to be forgotten as the sun rose. She was everyone's ghost...

Çâline With C is set to release new music on Electrifying Impact - a raucous EBM infused record destined to bang in the small dark rooms for which it was intended for. Intricate and heavy at the same time, this one will do just fine on the floor.

PREMIERE : Ole Mic Odd - Blown Out

When Void+1 intercepted intel of Znzl, an entity with green hair whose appearance has been linked to mysterious earthquakes, it immediately dispatched for "recruitment". After losing 2 ground units during the operation, V+1 resolved to diplomacy and managed to negotiate a deal code-named "Ancestraldatabreach", that contents of will not be disclosed to the public, other than 4 tracks that emerged as a consequence of the process.
"Significant Bound" is the result of Znzl's experimentation with new production techniques. A breakbeat/techno hybrid that might have a mind of its own, seemingly capable of some form of speech in particular segments of the track.
"Obfuscate" is a minimalist tool-track that hides it's underbelly of bass between razor sharp kicks while occasionally glittering in the darkness.
As if Znzl alone wasn't overpowered enough, he calls upon Radical Softness for assistance on vocals in "Alignment" and together they successfully convey the script of a cyborg going to an energy healer for alignment of its chakras (foreshadowing alert.exe).
The contract concludes with "As The Fire Consumes Us", evoking images of silhouettes being projected on concrete walls as they dance around the bonfire.

Bangkok-based artist @musicvell releases debut EP “Floating Mists, Warm Vistas,” on the @boiledwonderlandrecords banner.

In a vell of floating mists so fine, Warm vistas danced in a twisty line. Boiled Wonderland records played a tune, Singing a song to the glowing moon.

Mists giggled and twirled with glee, Vistas whispered secrets to the sea. Boiled Wonderland laughed along, Records skipped, oh what a song!

Through the vell, a whimsical flight, Floating dreams took their height. Warm vistas hugged the sky so tight, Boiled Wonderland spun day to night.

Records danced on the starry floor, A nonsense rhyme forevermore. In this world where imagination exists, Vell, vistas, records – a dreamer’s tryst!
 

An expansive sonic journey of an EP, we’re premiering the title track; “Floating Mists, Warm Vistas,” packed full of skipping drum breaks, rolling basslines and bubbling synths.

The full EP’s out on September 22nd, 2023.

We remember over a year ago the latest installment of Crysta Ampullaris, bringing together a host of guests from all corners of the country to offer us an eclectic opus, where stylistic boundaries were shattered to give prominence to sound design and a post-covid club vision unique to each individual. While it goes without saying that we thrive on sharing, we must also know how to refocus on the essentials, and it is through reflection on a common aesthetic that this new volume was born.

“Tribe.” A marginal musical style, long nestled in the free party culture, now seems to infuse into the most mental and fast-paced forms of electronic music. We wanted to take a look at our own roots, in the muddy grounds of our regional soundsystems, where everyone is invited to uncompromising sonic journeys. It is where nature, humans and technology come together in a joyful celebration of inner and outer life. The familiar faces from previous volumes are present: Nigm, Slowglide and Ayuji deliver three energetic and shamanic tracks, exploring fast grooves, hypnotic patterns and twisted landscapes. New faces also make their appearance, such as Numa, a founding member of the collective, presenting a generously psychedelic and textured debut track. Additionally, Perdu et Retrouvé from Venus Club introduces a superb dreamy and tribal collaboration with Shonen Bat.

As you can see, this new volume is an invitation to travel, to move and to connect ; as moving and being moved is our mantra.

Tracklist: 

1. Nigm - Rift Of Spirits
2. Slowglide - Ikeda Map
3. Ayuji - The Lost Lagoon
4. Numa - Mapinguari
5. Perdu et Retrouvé & Shonen Bat - TribeAdvisor

PREMIERE: Slowglide - Ikeda Map [La Forge]

The room was full, swat dripped from the ceiling and the fans were on full power spinning and whirring doing everything in their power to lift the warmth, even just for a moment.

Outside the sun beat down heavy on the streets – there were few wanderers out and about. Instead they’d taken refuge in the bars and clubs nearby, looking to seek refuge from the baking sun. That didn’t mean that there was no fun to be had…

No, quite the opposite.

The music blasted loudly from the hand crafted old speakers, it banged and boomed as whoops and delirious cheers echoed from room to room. It were as if the sun was some kind of witchcraft…

Maxwell Simmons is set to release a new EP on Beat Machine Records – a raucous affair set to bang in small rooms and test soundsystems. This one is for the energy crew.

Birmingham-based artist Emily Jones, also known as Echo Juliet, releases her debut mini-album “Abandon Reality” on October 27th through her label, Invisible IDs.

________________________________________________________________________

Invisible IDs, a mystery to decode, Echo Juliet, with a Red Sun she rode, Through the cosmos, where the music flowed, A whimsical journey, down a creative road.

Invisible IDs, their secrets well-kept, Echo Juliet, never ceased to be adept, With beats and rhythms, she happily leapt, In a world of sound, where dreams were swept.

Red Sun painted skies in hues so bold, Echo Juliet’s melodies, a story to be told, Invisible IDs’ magic, a treasure to behold, A surreal symphony, in this tale of old.
____________________________________________________________________________________
 

Raised in Essex, Jones she transitioned from her classical training into the world of the electronic.  A journey, marked by self-doubt, led her to DJing and music production. “Abandon Reality” reflects her escape from societal issues, with tracks like “Red Sun” inspired by her childhood and concerns about climate change.

Premiere : Vell - Powerful Cool (BOILD05)

Drip by drip, drop by drop - the cup began to bubble like some sort of wild cauldron. It was all illuminated by the hazy murky glow of the streetlights which were all seeing and all knowing as they looked down upon the corner with a wicked orange fog.

One sip and it were as if time was moving ever so slowly - the noises which echoed all around were no longer there and the city was silent and asleep for a moment.

Wandering step by step, through the sprawling mirage of streets, boarded up shutters and empty buildings were all that was left to guide him from place to place. Sometimes it was better to be lost than found, besides whenever he needed to find solace in something, there was a purple whirlpool nearby for that.

Astral Black celebrate ten strong years in the game with the release of a new compilation which features family favourites and good friends. Dj Milktray, Jossy Mitsu, Will Lister and more all feature on the new compilation called 'Frass FM VI'. This track from Sivey did the business for us...

PREMIERE: Sivey - Purple Whirlpool [Astral Black]

Alan Strani, in a tux so fancy, Danced the Apocalypso, feeling so chancy…

With I:Cube Remix, the rhythm did enhance, see,
In Bordello A Parigi, where dreams run free.

He twirled and he swirled, his moves so bizarre, Apocalypso madness, like a shooting star, I:Cube’s beats, like a wild electric guitar, In Bordello A Parigi, where no rules are.

The night went on, a surreal cabaret, Alan Strani’s dance, a wild display, Apocalypso and I:Cube’s sway, In Bordello A Parigi, where we all stray.
 
Alan Strani returns to Bordello with a remix package of his album title track ‘Apocalypso’ featuring I:Cube – which we’re premiering here + Lauer, In Flagranti and himself on remix duties.

Announcing their debut for R$N Records sub-label, Insult To Injury, Manchester based newcomer, Lapalace, has furnished us with an ambitious, divergent dance destroyer that touches on Ambient, Jungle & everything in between! We're thoroughly excited to have Thugwidow on remix duties too as we’ve been fans of his music for ages. He doesn’t disappoint, as he ‘breaks’ Ephemera into tiny pieces & rebuilds it in his own image. Make no mistake, this is a dance floor demolisher of the highest pedigree!

Lapalace - Ephemera (Thugwidow Remix)[Insult to Injury Records]

Vell debuts on Bangkok's Boiled Wonderland Records with the electrified zap of 'Floating Mists, Warm Vistas' EP. 4 tracks of bubbling bass and electro transmissions that voyage through breakbeat situations and acidic bass lines featuring a sublime remix from the Dubai based Rudoh.

Our featured premiere is the Rudoh reimagining of 'Burning Trees', which is given a breakbeat makeover of epic atmospheric proportions. Commanding bass, thick kicks and ethereal breakdowns with pinches of rave. It's a bit of a cracker.
