Intoducing the next group of artists playing at Soliq Records and Chill Kitchen anniversary party!💚🔊🎶
🔦Artist Spotlight - Humanizm (Canberra, ACT)🔦
Some producers stay neatly in the pocket.
Humanizm sits in the rhythm, then tears a hole through it. Classic techno repetition at the core, pushed through warped sound design and thick, driving energy.There’s love for the old-school pulse: the repetition, the tension, the roll- but the production leans forward, not back.
Textures get weird.
Drums stay heavy.
The groove always wins.
🔦Artist Spotlight - Booyah (Canberra, ACT)🔦
Booyah is the psybreaks project of Ed from Canberra, Australia (aka Disect, Humanizm).
Breakbeat vinyl was where it all began — the first spark in a lifelong obsession with DJing and production. Known for his work across psytrance and psytech, Ed brings that same depth and intensity into this broken-beat territory.
Booyah blends chunky rhythms with detailed, evolving sound design — deep grooves, driving percussion, and moments that hit with both emotion and impact. It’s modern psybreaks built for movement: high energy, mind-bending textures, and basslines that lock you in.
Broken beats that fix the vibe.
Booyah.
