Borai In Conversation with Bass Scoops Radio (Part 1)

 

Bass Scoops Radio continues its wonderful journey of interviews and specialities, this time hosting Bristol based talent Borai. Relax and enjoy the first part of this great show and get to know one of the most familiar acts within the new breed of Bass scene.

"This is a big one listeners - number one of two parts. During the summer of 2023 I met up with Boris English, who you may better know how as Borai. Breakbeat artist extraordinaire, solo artist of great repute, a corner stone of bass music in Bristol , part for the excellent Club Glow crew and one half of the Off Beat modern hard house project with Don'tforgettogohome. Borai was super generous with his time and not only shares with us his own story but gives us insights into the evolution of bass music in Bristol from its Jungle roots though dubstep to the present day. Alongside this we get the production tips, lessons from the music business, a guided tour of his treasure trove of a studio and of course the story of that record with that sample!" - Bass Scoops Radio

Club Glow present their new Vinyl release

A1 - Need U

A2 - Step Off

B1 - Yellow

B2 - Shadow Law

Club Glow co-manager, Borai from Bristol, is the man behind the second official Vinyl release of this hard working collective from UK. An ideal work following up Mani Festo's debut and primary EP.
This time, we're dealing with a masterpiece of futuristic Hardcore, a prophecy of a massive resurrection of nightlife clubbin and tracks that incarnate British underground spirit nowdays.

'Need U' is the title of this superb new weapon, with the self-titled soaring track (being also Borai's favorite) evoking the right optimism driven by euphoric vocals, infused with the right breakbeats.
By far one of the best tracks of this year that will lead your soul to the gates of a rave that we all yearn to live up again. The time is now!
On the flipside, you can find 'Yellow' a lush track that you'll surely dig especially if you're a fan of Coco Bryce timbre, for instance.
Closing with an Oldskool '93 darkside vibe translated into a 140 tip for 'Shadow Realm' and you should not sit out on these monstrous beats. Strictly for the headstrong!

Only available on Bandcamp and very selected physical record stores.
Limited to 300 copies

[HILEVRECS003] - BORAI - Sanctuary / Carpet Bagger [12" Vinyl - HIGHER LEVEL RECORDS]

                            

A - Sanctuary

B - Carpet Bagger

The UK capital of Trip Hop, known for Massive Attack & Portishead, has never died and keeps on thriving new musical talents. One of them current new heroes, is Borai, and you should definetely add him on your scope.

Mostly known of his eminent success of 'Make Me' and the Club Glow mixtape release; both collaborating with Sheffield's finest Denham Audio, Borai returns with a supreme weapon of his own choice.

Higher Level Records, one of his favorite running activities, proudly presents the next big thing, the third Vinyl release, which is driven by Borai and his two fresh modern UK-Rave tracks. Aside of that, there's also a special contribution of Nuff Gal, a Bristol-based illustrator, who's behind the artwork of this EP.

HILEVRECS003 consists of two tracks paying a tribute to the early days of British Hardcore Rave.Starting from side A and 'Sanctuary' where Borai takes you to his own temple, a religious warehouse of a 140 bpm dreamy rave. A tune which pays homage to the legendary venue of Milton Keynes from back in the day to the dark and mystic trip of 'Carpet Bagger'. The flipside spins pulsating hardcore all around and amazes the impact of this EP.

This EP will be out on 8th June and you may pre-order this release now on the online platforms and record shops above.
