Boom Merchant sets to release his ‘Chronicle’ EP

27 January 2025 - Grahame Farmer

We’re excited to premiere ‘Chronicle,’ the title track from Boom Merchant’s upcoming EP, out 31 January 2025 via Eclipse Recordings. Known for its focus on dark and driving techno, Eclipse welcomes the Irish producer, now based in Mexico, for a debut release that showcases his dynamic and genre-blurring sound.

The ‘Chronicle’ EP is a four-track journey through Boom Merchant’s intense production style, blending raw percussion, potent synths, and ominous atmospherics. The title track delivers haunting, trippy vocals layered over a heavy bassline and gritty rhythms, creating a high-energy vibe perfect for late-night floors.

[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KbkuJY_XudA?feature=oembed&w=1140&h=641]

Each track on the EP brings something unique: from the acid-tinged sirens of ‘Scrapyard’ to the dubby undertones of ‘Mezcal,’ and the hip-hop-infused grit of ‘Everybody.’ This release further cements Boom Merchant’s reputation as a versatile and forward-thinking techno producer.

Stream ‘Chronicle’ now on Data Transmission and get a taste of Boom Merchant’s electrifying debut on Eclipse Recordings. The ‘Chronicle’ EP is available digitally on 31 January 2025.

Ian G: The Soundtrack to My Life

27 January 2025 - Data Transmission Staff

UK DJ and producer, Ian G, is on a mission to revive piano house; the classic house vibes of the 90s that we all know and love but brought bang up to date with a modern twist.

An inspiring character with a career built on resilience, creativity, and an unshakeable passion for music, Ian G returned to the scene after a short hiatus to pursue his true calling; the timeless melodies and energy of piano house. Performing at such iconic London venues as Ministry of Sound, EGG and Studio338, Ian can command the decks and captivate crowds, making him a fixture in the capital’s clubbing scene.

Ian G

Ian G’s piano house revolution is already making waves with his latest single ‘Diamonds’ on Perfect Havoc. In collaboration with Ruff Loaderz, Diamonds saw an impressive wave of early editorial support from Apple Music (DanceXL & Future Dance Hits) and Spotify New Music Friday (UK), proving this sound is more than just a personal fave, but a genre with mass appeal.

For every artist out there, each has a personal collection of tracks that define the key moments of life, the tracks that when played evoke a vision, a scent or an emotion that shoots them right back.

We caught up with Ian G to take a personal look into the soundtrack to his life.

The Track That Got Me into Dance Music : Livin’ Joy – Dreamer

This is the track that truly got me hooked on dance music. Whenever I hear it, I can’t help but smile, it’s just one of those tracks that lifts my entire mood. If I’m in a club or anywhere with a dancefloor, it gets me up and moving. It’s the one track that has always had that power over me and still does to this day.

[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QFixpXRLiTU?feature=oembed&w=1140&h=855]

The Track that Inspires me Daily: Chapter 9 – Roller Coaster

This is one of the first tracks that made me fall in love with piano house. To this day, it takes me straight back to my roots and reminds me why I’m so passionate about bringing this sound back. The feeling I had when I first heard this track is what I want to give back to the industry; pure energy and joy, through music. Finding out later that the person I now produce with created this track (Julian – Ruff Loaderz) is a dream come true. We’ve since become great friends.

[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OYFgItgtlgk?feature=oembed&w=1140&h=855]

The Track that Defined my First BIG Gig: Short Silm – Never Thought

My first big gig was at Ministry of Sound in 2001, playing in the Baby Box. During my set, Dean Wilson came into the DJ booth and handed me this vinyl, saying, “You have to play this record. I’ve just been given this by Jeremy B, who’s playing in the main room!” So, I dropped it, and the crowd absolutely loved it. It was one of those moments that’s stuck with me ever since.

[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-1R3XodSnsY?feature=oembed&w=1140&h=641]

The Track that Reminds Me of Childhood: Dire Straits – Sultans of Swing

This track always takes me back to my childhood and reminds me of my parents. It was one of those songs that seemed to always be playing in the background, shaping my early connection with music. Even now, it brings back those moments and reminds me where my journey with music began.

[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h0ffIJ7ZO4U?feature=oembed&w=1140&h=641]

The First Track I Ever Dropped in a Club: Freak Nature – Free (Soundscapers Dub)

When I first started DJing, I was a warm-up DJ for many years. One of the tracks I’d use to get the floor warmed up was “Free (Soundscapers Dub)” by Freak Nature.This track became a bit of a signature for me during my warm-up sets. It was slightly different from the norm as it has a unique energy that sets the tone for the night.

[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8FJtkYIy3OA?feature=oembed&w=1140&h=641]

The Track That ALWAYS Makes me Cry: Samuel Barber – Adagio for Strings

From watching the American war film Platoon in 1986 as a teenager and hearing this piece for the first time until now, it never fails to move and affect me. There’s something so powerful and emotional in the way it builds; it’s almost impossible not to feel it deeply. It’s a track that captures both sorrow and beauty, and every time I hear it, it stops me in my tracks and makes me reflect.

[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=izQsgE0L450?feature=oembed&w=1140&h=855]

The track that Defined a KEY Moment in my Life: Ian G – Have Your Lovin

Producing “Have Your Lovin” and having it signed to a label (Cleveland City) the very next day was a huge personal milestone for me. It marked the moment my journey as a DJ and producer truly reignited, giving me the drive to follow my dream and passion at a later stage in life. This track is a personal milestone, but it’s also a reminder that it’s never too late to chase what you love, whilst inspiring others to do the same.

Bad Boombox & Mischluft drop High-Energy ‘The Pressure’ EP Out Now via Hot Meal Records

24 January 2025 - Grahame Farmer

Bad Boombox and Mischluft kick off 2025 with a bang, releasing their collaborative ‘The Pressure’ EP via Hot Meal Records.

This four-track powerhouse blends Bad Boombox’s funky, bouncy grooves with Mischluft’s moody basslines and hypnotic vocal hooks, capturing the energy and emotion of late-night club culture. The focus track, ‘Out at the Club,’ featuring MCYL, is a peak-time anthem designed to set dancefloors ablaze.

[soundcloud url="https://api.soundcloud.com/tracks/2010536443" params="color=#ff5500&auto_play=false&hide_related=false&show_comments=true&show_user=true&show_reposts=false&show_teaser=true" width="100%" height="166" iframe="true" /] Hot Meal Records · Bad Boombox, Mischluft – Make You Trip [HOTMEAL017]

“I’ve always admired Fritz’s (Mischluft’s) approach to building tension in his tracks,” says Bad Boombox. “Working with him pushed me into new territory. This EP is funkier, darker, and hits harder than anything I’ve done before.”

[soundcloud url="https://api.soundcloud.com/tracks/2010536447" params="color=#ff5500&auto_play=false&hide_related=false&show_comments=true&show_user=true&show_reposts=false&show_teaser=true" width="100%" height="166" iframe="true" /] Hot Meal Records · Bad Boombox, Mischluft – Out at the Club (feat. MCYL) [HOTMEAL017]

Mischluft adds, “On The Pressure EP, I demonstrate more diversity and creativity in every element than my previous productions. From sexy vocals and groovy basslines to funky and trance-inspired elements, it’s packed with variety. Djeki (Bad Boombox) pushes me to step out of my comfort zone and shows me what’s possible when you dare to try. I think the four tracks on the EP are a wonderful example of what happens when two producers collaborate, enriching each other with their strengths and growing together.”

Born in Sofia and raised in the USA, Bad Boombox brings a vibrant fusion of Balkan rhythms, disco, and electronic influences to his music, while Leipzig-based Mischluft combines trance-inspired melodies with bouncy techno grooves. Both artists push their creative boundaries on this EP, delivering a collection that’s raw, sexy, and deeply groovy.
