- Guadeloupe-bred French disco /indie dance electronic DJ-producer and Weirdos Records founder, MALA IKA – “Die Party Ist Vorbei (Original Mix)” from the EP “Die Party Ist Vorbei” on Weirdos Records
Dizzying dark indie dance with a cosmic flair from the up-and-coming Guadalupe-native, Parisian producer, via her own Weirdos imprint, to inject oscillating and warbling bassline droning menace with steady thumping beats through swirling magic pathways of icy, bright synth strains of neon-tinged allure that flows into mind-warping expansions, fusing high flicker strobing intensity with obsessive glaring stabs and mesmeric repetitions of trance-inducing dancefloor utopia.

Parisian producer merges Electro and New Beat setting fire to stomping and marching beats along with treacherous digging and syncopated mechanical low ends and strings of eerie glowing synth chords surrounded hypnotically by buzzing alarming flows and ominous swirling distorted vocal echoes and buzzing alarming flows, to travel to the outer dimensions of dancefloor euphoria whilst obscured in the hidden shadows of time.
