Jelle Boon presents his brand new four track EP, entitled “Junior Master Chief” on the Rub A Duck imprint.

Dutch DJ/Producer Jelle Boon (17 years old and currently residing in Enkhuizen, The Netherlands) made his first steps in the world of electronic dance music at age 13. Initially playing around programming hiphop beats, Jelle quickly encountered house and finally found his preferred style when he discovered electro. For Jelle, electro had everything that house didn’t. When in the studio, he loves to create complex arrangements that still sound attractive; a fact that caught the attention of the record labels. Jelle’s earlier releases were the perfect showcase of this way of working, in which he moves from classical music to noise to machinery and back; everything programmed with unique sounds. Jelle’s previous single on Rub A Duck, “My Depredation”, received serious acclaim and he now proudly presents the follow up with these four cuts for his new Junior Master Chief EP.

The four titles of the EP, “For The Big Thirst”, “In Search for Beans”, “Microwave Goes Ping” and “Salt & Pepper” all feature Jelle Boon’s trademark sound full of tight edits, heavy melodies and subtle fidget influences; true electro in every sense of the word, here and there with energetic tech elements. The “Junior Master Chief” has prepared a four-course menu, ready to set the dance floor on fire.


Dimitri Kechagias review: Rub A Duck represents the freshest sounds from the underground with open minded music policy and with an eye for the new talents. Now its the time for a young Dutch talent, Mr Jelle Boon to show his muscles on the studio and deliver 4 great tracks that can be easily described as a mash up of sounds and style delivering something fresh, new and very "Rub A Duck" style. Ready made for heavy use and abuse on any djs music kitchen or booth if you like. Junior Master Chief EP is an energising experience that you should taste without any particular expectations. For The Big Thirst is a fat banging electro houser with flanger effects and heavy distortion, vocal chopped samples and super large breakdown heavily influenced from classical music. I can imagine even tech trance djs digging this meaty beaty stuff. In Search of Beans is a classy nu rave/electro house thing that friends of Hardwell sound will enjoy a lot. Microwave goes Ping starts with classical music melody and then moves to a fat banging tech trance beat but don't be fooled cause this is not stuff for opera houses and serious concert halls. Its goes suddenly all dirty and grungy for a crunchy salty and bitter sweet taste. Last plate for the Junior Master Chief is the cool Salt & Pepper. Electro house with tech feel and some dirty raunchy horny Dutch style distortions. Ahhh Yes this menu was really nutritious and Delicious. Try it in your set. Love iT!
