Resonate Artist of the Week: Boom Merchant

Facebook | Instagram | Twitter

Boom Merchant is a fast rising electronic producer based in Glasgow and head honcho of the Tribal Pulse clan. After a jam packed summer, Boom Merchant is armed to the teeth with techno weaponary and a future electronic sound that will surely turn heads. He has collaborated with an array of international artists over the years and has performed with the likes of Silicone Soul, Dave Seaman, Robert Babicz, Pole Folder + many more. Boom Merchant’s next show will be on 12th November in TIME, Glasgow.

Boom Merchant returns to business here with 4 slabs of atom-splitting techno, bottling this Summer's experiences behind the decks and sometimes under the stars.


Hope's Revenge lifts off with an array of distorted electronics and tribal drums giving way to a thunderous bass rhythm. A hyper-colour interlude that floats suspended in time, with reversed synth swelling to slow the momentum, gives way to more bass power as the track continues to morph and evolve.


Next comes Burial, a rolling monster heavy in analog low-end impulses. Multiple hyper-pitched vocal parts rotate around smooth flutes to create a campfire headphase, before lashings of evil bass frequency take over once more.


Find What Is Real enters more groovy territory, with his characteristic tough percussion rhythm flowing in a more lazy manner over echoing trumpets, and a harmonic sequence that relaxes the soul, before a menacing reese bass engages the thrusters late on.


Nine rounds off the journey with a minimalist descent into darkness and distortion.
