Lunaria: BMSS Label Night Switzerland

Once a year, our BMSS family gathers in our favourite living room in Switzerland for our annual label night. Every edition, we focus on a certain narrative, which is reflected in the selection of artists and our musical vision.
After last year`s Solaria edition, we are welcoming our fellow Trancers to a night under the radiance of the moon, and it`s mystical vibration for Lunaria. 🌑

As a headliner, we invited Triceradrops from Los Angeles 🇺🇸, who will present his latest #1 album "Becoming" and will please us as well with a second set under his Demek Techno alias.

From Malta 🇲🇹, we have Soul Kontakt on board, a true legend when it comes to Djing and the Maltese Psychedelic scene whose career spans back more than 30 years, and as local talents Sci-Flyers with a live and DJ set and Mantis who will ensure a groovy kickstart of this long night.

Datacult (alias Meller / Marco Scherer), OmShiva on the second floor and Boom Shankar with a stronger Psytrance set on the main floor will add their special spices to this recipe ensuring a holistic and positive gradient in order to keep the balance. 🙏

We are looking forward to welcoming you back home, back to the essence, returning to the source for a night to remember (and an after party to space out). See on November 15th in Club Schlaflos in Aarau in Switzerland! 🇨🇭

PS: make sure you come early as we run with limited capacity to ensure a positive and truly family style vibe! ❤

Sabretooth - Plasma Pilot (EP)

Prolific UK producer Ben Fraser returns to BMSS under his Sabretooth moniker with the Plasma Pilot EP. Featuring two tracks of no-nonsense heads-down psychedelic weapons, this is driving tech-infused full-on at its best.

Razor-sharp leads mingle with sci-fi FX, precision-crafted grooves and - as we`ve come to expect from Sabretooth`s tell-tale sound - a raft of screaming of 303s. Add to that tribal chanting and epic Goa-inspired melodies, and we have once again a perfect recipe for complete and utter dance floor exhilaration.

Tracklist:

01: Sabretooth - Chaos Injection
02: Sabretooth - Plasma Pilot

Mastering: Plus Six Mastering
Design: Ben Fraser

Release date:

17.10.25 via Beatport & Spotify and 31.10.25 via Bandcamp

Psytrance in Solidarity

The values our scene is built upon demand action!

It is inspiring to witness more of my fellow artists, DJs, promoters, and creatives coming together, recognizing the urgent need to show solidarity with and support for the people of Gaza.

This moment is defining for our community and scene!

Even though I pointed this out already a few times, let me be absolutely clear one more time: I unequivocally condemn the horrific atrocities committed by Hamas, and the violence against my fellow Trancers and innocent civilians at the Nova Festival. However, those barbaric actions can never be used to justify the war crimes and the catastrophic humanitarian disaster currently unfolding in Gaza.

As highlighted in the attached open letter, the Psytrance scene, which is founded on values of unity, peace, and transcendence, risks being shrouded in silence and complicity due to its close ties to Israel. This is unacceptable. We cannot stand by as Gaza is "devoured in an apocalyptic blaze," witnessing violations of human rights that are impossible to ignore.

The moment is here to speak up, and take a unified stand for humanity. It is essential that we unite and become part of the global movement challenging this destruction and mass displacement. Our dancefloor ritual demands more than just movement, it demands conscience. Uniting in solidarity against this unthinkable atrocity ensures we stand firmly on "the right side of history".

Hence, I ask every member of our global family to read this open letter:

https://openletter.earth/psytrance-in-solidarity-528f1d8e

If it resonates with your core values, join us. Sign it. Make your position known. Let us show the world that the psychedelic movement stands for justice, for humanity and the immediate end to this suffering.

If this stance contradicts your core values, you are free to ignore both this post and the open letter. Freedom of speech is a right I deeply value, and while a difference of opinion on this matter breaks my heart, I accept that everyone must follow their own conscience.

Thank you for your time, your reflection and hopefully for your support! 🙏 (Armin Boom Shankar)

European Festival Season Recap: Boom Shankar

As the European festival season slowly winds down, it`s time to reflect on the past few months. They were filled with incredible events, beautiful connections, and a sense of unity our scene may have been missing in previous years.

Despite some personal hardships this summer, the memories of these months shine brightly. While I unfortunately had to cancel a couple of gigs, I still had the privilege of playing at 16 festivals all across Europe.

It`s impossible to choose a favorite, so instead, I want to share a clip that represents the people I am most grateful for: you, the dancers on the dancefloor.

You are the reason I play music and the reason I love DJing: to make others dance, to bring them joy, to make them smile, and to help us all drop our issues, if only for a few days. The goal is to unite everyone in our ritual of trance, and when it works, the outcome is pure magic. This video from Okami Festival in France perfectly captures that special moment of unity through dance and trance.

I also want to use this post to thank everyone who participated in this festival season: the promoters, riggers, drivers, deco artists, visual artists, sound engineers, stage managers, artist care managers, cleaning crews, and everyone else who contributed their art, work, and energy to what we call a psychedelic trance gathering.

Thank you all from the bottom of my heart. It was an amazing summer, and I can`t wait to see you again, whether it`s indoors this winter or outdoors in Asia. Thank you for your support.

Best vibes and much love! ❤

The Quasars, Mind Lab & Frosty Fennic - Did we leave the Engine on?

Extending their unique psychedelic narrative on their home label BMSS, The Quasars present three slabs of phat, funky and unapologetically experimental Psytrance with the "Did We Leave the Engine On?" EP.

The international group of producers take the listener on their telltale winding and psychoactive journey - so relentlessly that in fact they question whether they have left their creative motors running in the process! Boosted by expert production input from two of BMSS`s longstanding producers Mind Lab and Frosty Fennic, this fast-and-funky EP is a veritable ode to the BMSS family spirit and sound!

Tracklist:

01: The Quasars - Did we leave the Engine on?
02: The Quasars & Mind Lab - Level of Existence
03: The Quasars & Frosty Fennic - The great ruminating Mystery

Mastering: Plus Six Mastering

Fohat feat. Jimi Green - Dancing Elves (EP)

Fohat`s "Dancing Elves" EP is a high-energy Psytrance journey that captures the enchanting duality between light and shadow. Fusing Psychedelic Forest vibes with a rolling Full On drive, the tracks channel the mystical presence of elves - beings of love, spirit, and ancient magic - dancing their way through the darker realms of the night.

Featuring a collaboration with Looney Moon`s expert producer Jimi Green, the EP generates a sense of profound sonic contrast: the deep, driving beats of the nocturnal world fusing with ethereal melodies that hint at light, mischief, and healing energy.

"Dancing Elves" is ultimately a celebration of movement, mystery, and the mystical power of love.

Tracklist:

01: Fohat feat. Jimi Green - Tonight we get evil
02: Fohat - Dancing Elves

Mastering: Green Studios
Design: Sketch inc.

Release date:

29.08.25 via Beatport & Spotify and 12.09.25 via Bandcamp
