Bogdan Irkuk
The Thracian Plain (Prins Thomas)
The long awaited ''Thracian EP'' by Bogdan Irkuk a.k.a. Bulgari is finally here. Already played by Idjut Boys in Tokyo and supported by heavy names such as Mark E and Toby Tobias to name a few. Bogdan asked to include this legendary quote by his hero Brahim Ivaylov, written on the back of the record sleeve. “... It came down from the mountains, over the wind-swept plains, we covered our faces as the wind and the sun spoke with one voice, singing our songs so impossibly true...” Brahim Ivaylov, Thrace, 1906. These few words really capture a lot about the mood of this masterpiece. In the same tradition as Ivaylov, the Thracian EP tells stories of nature romantic rapture, psychedelia and melancholy.
As always when coming from Bogdan you'll find beautiful melodies, haunting vocoder harmonies and in-your-belly bass lines. On this EP he has taken the rhythm aspect even further and moved closer to the dance floor, which will please many DJs out there. The remix by Prins Thomas is a great piece of remix-work. The Prins has taken the essence of the track ''My Weakness'' and turned it into a dance floor killer with acid elements and extatic rock drums that explode in the break.
