The EP from label owners Vell and Chalo features minimal, acid and impeccable house music
Bangkok-based record label Boiled Wonderland has released the first project from their new EP series ‘Made from Moss’, out now on vinyl with a digital release set to follow.
The trilogy of vinyl comes from label bosses Chalo and Vell, with support from MetalMetal. The project aims to highlight the vibrant and always-growing electronic music scene in Thailand’s capital.
The ‘Made from Moss’ series gets its name from the idea of moss as a representation of a simple yet dynamic life, with the series focusing on this aspect of dance music. The project is filled with simple, yet effective floor-fillers, with minimal elements tied that are rich in impact, blending powerful basslines with irresistible acid lines.
