NEON BUDDHA

A. Neon Buddha B. Rendez-Voodoo Fresh off the back of a debut album with sidekick Charlotte Adigéry Belgium-Chinese musician Bolis Pupul explores themes of heritage and identity on his new solo two-track 12-inch ˜Neon Buddha™ - out 6th May via Soulwax™s DEEWEE. Mixing widescreen electronica  think early Mr Fingers-like techno and Yellow Magic Orchestra™s exuberant man-machine minimalism  with the warm-hearted and wonky naivete of Belgian New Beat Bolis™ singular sonics are at once playful emotive unrelenting and tender. The title track is inspired by a dream Bolis had of a pagoda in Hong Kong featuring a contemplative Buddha made of neon lights. The music is similarly bright and exciting  an insistent acid squiggle giving the track the requisite Weatherall-friendly A Love from Outer Space chug. Housed in a UV Gloss sleeve with a printed inner.
