MULA
We gave Mula from the Boom Tchack Tour carte blanche! Just back from a long trip to Central America, he plays hypnotic, progressive and tribal electronic music, enhanced by folk instruments.
Spotted by Sol Selectas (Be svendsen, Blond:ish, Satori, Nicola Cruz...), the world's No. 1 label in this field, his tracks often appear in the Beatport top 100. Since then, he's been invited to play everywhere: OZORA (HU), Klein Garten (TU), Baikal Nomad showcase (MX), DAAD Gathering (HU), WAO (IT, ZUgvoegel, Guy's Bar (TH), The Sanctuary (IT), Château Perché (FR), and his tracks are played by the greats: Oliver Koketzki, Zuma Dionys, Nick warren, Acid Arab, Sabo, Timboletti, Mollono Bass, Amani (Desert Dwellers) and many others.
Watt the Fox
Formed in 2017, Watt The Fox today emerge as pioneers of Electro Organic music.
Claiming a multitude of influences, their music is above all about blending.
Machines beat out the rhythm, percussion breaks set the groove, handpan themes are accompanied by synth layers, and catchy Jew's harp riffs meet electrifying melodies.
Dub, Techno, Trance and Downtempo, the duo's powerful Electro and energetic instrumentals take their audience by storm.
Damon Jee
Considered the godfather of dark disco, elusive and deviant, Damon Jee brews a broad spectrum of contemporary electronic music. His dj-sets strike a subtle balance between indie rock and electronic psychedelia, opening the door to an unsettling, frenetic in-between. Active since the early 90s, Damon Jee 's career cannot be summed up in a few lines. Ultra-prolific, he has also launched his own Dust & Blood label.
