about

UK based producer and visual artist Bon-Psy returns with a second single ‘Ukiyo’ from his forthcoming ‘Order’ EP on Folded Music, the first of a trio of EPs depicting the balance and interaction between order and chaos.

Brandishing a production style that bridges the gap between melodic and experimental music ‘Ukiyo’ is a track awash with energy and emotion, driving and upbeat rhythms and grooves, and beautiful peaks and troughs within a forward-thinking electronica arrangement.

It’s a track that is unashamedly cerebral - fusing broken vocal snaps, jazz patterned drums, intelligent sounds design elements and plenty of unique melodic keyboard lines to maintain the listeners interest. It’s truly one of the rare breed of songs that works well in the lounge yet is still fitting for the dancefloor.

Indeed it's this kind of prodigious experimentation and genre bending mixed with an innate knowledge of what makes a good track that has led him to already count an established crew of heavyweight supporters across radio and press, including Jaguar and Sian Eleri (BBC Radio 1), BBC 6Music, BBC Introducing, Wonderland, Fame Mag, and ThisSongIsSick to name a few.

And with the first EP of his most ambitious and unique artistic project to date on the horizon that list seems only likely to grow larger.

Bon-Psy explains the inspiration behind the track further:

“ ‘Ukiyo’ is a term rooted in Japanese history which loosely translates to “Floating World”. This track reflects the joy that can be associated with a period of Order which can be euphoric at times. My aim here was to create a track that represented this, embodying the good feeling of having all your ducks in a row in any area of your life. It can feel like you’re coasting through the day and nothing can go wrong. My thought process behind Ukiyo is that it is that pipe dream of what you envision your life would be like if everything was exactly how you imagined things were going to be. This vision is a floating mirage in the distance, a perfect idea in an imperfect world.”
