Boolaboom are a super-sized brass and samba percussion big-band playing house and techno. A budding collaboration between a multicultural blend of international jazz musicians and samba drummers, the group launched in 2023 to make ‘unplugged house music’ heavily sprinkled with soul, jazz and South American flare.
BoolaBoom features a 12-piece horn section backed by 10 samba drummers producing a unique high-impact sound that hits you simultaneously in the chest and the soul.
French producer Art of Tones (aka Llorca) took a shine to the group and remixed their track ‘Summerhouse’ which was released in March 2024. The upbeat disco rework hit number 18 in the Traxsource Top 100 with EDM legends like Laurent Garnier, Glen Underground and mega-popular new wave DJs like Folamour declaring their love for it.
BoolaBoom’s original tracks feature catchy brass licks and scintillating brass solos alongside classic EDM-style percussion build-ups, air-punching beat-drops and catchy, irresistible samba-esque chants.
