BOOOoo! is back with a new VA gathering Ildec, Pagenty, Phase O'Matic, Gogo Gadgeto & label-head BOOH!The fourth installment has been carefully curated to showcase five distinct facets of the darker side of the electro scene, while maintaining a softer, more accessible edge. Each track is suitable for both daytime and nighttime play.

For its ninth release, Sentaku turns to the enigmatic figure of Tsukuyomi, the moon god of Japanese mythology, whose presence embodies mystery and solitude. Crafted by Mirko Felicioli, this EP dives into shadowy realms where deep, emotive undercurrents meet raw, underground energy.The record opens with Tsukuyomi, a mesmerizing blend of atmospheric depth and pulsating momentum, drawing listeners into its nocturnal spell. Analong Time follows with a stripped-back yet intricate groove, fusing hypnotic loops with a sharp, electro-infused edge. On the flip side, Air Felix injects a futuristic vibrancy, its crisp drum patterns and fluid synth work creating an expansive, weightless feel. Rounding off the journey, Fantasy channels an ethereal, dreamlike energy while maintaining a driving intensity that lingers long after the last beat.

Born out of frustration with the obsession over A-side bangers, Besides flips the script : no A-side, no compromise. Two B-sides, where depth, detail, and personality thrive. This is for those who know. Welcome to Besides.
