An alumnus of Human Endeavour Records, Scuffed Recordings, Reel Long Overdub, and Bad Tips, GoodMostlyBad steps up to the plate for Vief’s second EP of 2026, funny bich.

A product of years of obsession with 145 BPM, the release features three groove-steady outputs, precision-built for the club.

On a planet far beyond our solar system lies a volcanic tropical island, a glowing mirage where alien tides crash against molten shores and the sky pulses in time with the rhythm below.

E.T.H (Italy) inaugurates the first-ever Basement Beats vinyl release with Neon Inferno.

The A-side opens deep and progressive, dense with atmosphere and tension, before pivoting into the playful, radiant Cumbia Poderosa, where the artist’s roots surface through Italian vocals.

As the land shifts, lava carving new paths through jungle terrain, Utrecht-based Tifra reshapes the title track into a hypnotic, tribal ritual meditation built for the late hours.

Closing the portal is Osaka’s Paperkraft, whose vibrant remix injects uplifting energy and subtle Asian influences, bringing the journey to a euphoric, otherworldly conclusion

Inspired by the book The Ending of Time by J.Krishnamurti & David Bohm, this compositions delves into the illusion of the constructed self, the “me” shaped by thought and psychological time. Through the movement of sound, J. Krishnamurti asks: Man has taken a wrong turn? Why has he created the “I”? Is the illusion of the self, the “I,” the root cause of chaos and fragmentation, and can we transcend this to perceive the truth of oneness?

A multidisciplinary approach is not ornament. Sound alone cannot reveal wholeness. Uma Sharma’s hand-painted vision observes without the image; Gaëtane August’s poem is total attention and in that attention, silence speaks; 8-Bit Culprit’s remix dissolves the centre and reimagines.

Together, they invite the listener to see that “the observer is the observed” — that “the observer is the cause of division, because the observer is the past, the conditioned entity.” When this is seen, not as an idea but as an actual fact, the seeing itself brings freedom.

____breaking orbit

is this echo
or are we cause?
ask your ego.
who is I, anyway,
that flickering mask in the great play?
disguised as silence
slipping through selves
raging like thunder
bumping
thumping
bruising the source
feeding into fractures
until all of I is gone.

____flatlined
or fully aligned?
warped into
a wormhole
without spacetime
who breathes this?
it is not I.

I is problem
I is conflict
I am you.
I is survival
I is pulse
I am source.
I is division
the observer, the observed
I is illusion,
its intricate dissolution.

if there is no ego,
there is no survival
if there is no ego,
there is no conflict
if there is no ego,
there is just
this.

Straight out of the Netherlands, Portente and SOLIT meet beneath the fractured light of disco balls. Very quickly, their worlds intertwine, giving birth to a collaborative EP for the fifth release on Mirage Sud, featuring a remix by Belgrade producer Cosmic G. Conceived for spring, this EP reveals a prog house/trance vision that is both ethereal and hypnotic, stretching toward the first light of dawn.

Irony opens like a glossy drama on a festival dancefloor: enveloping melody, melancholic tension, fleeting sensuality. An anthem for destinies brushing past each other in the course of a single dance. In contrast, Spooked the Librarian feels more hushed, almost secretive. Phased chords layer in cyclical loops, forming a haunting, addictive hook designed for the depths of the club.

Each artist also delivers a solo piece, like two mirrors reflecting their collaboration. SOLIT returns to the essence with It Runs Deep: minimal groove, crisp percussion, a lush pad and warm bassline with subtly Chandlerized ’90s house accents. On Simulacrum, Portente explores mise en abyme: serpentine motifs charm and shift through the stereo field over a firm bassline and tight drums, before dissolving into an angelic final breath.

Cosmic G closes the journey by tipping light into shadow. Altered acid lines, suspended vocals, a psychedelic spiral: one last reflection before everything fades.
