This month, we spotlight three outstanding contributions to Thailand’s electronic music scene, each offering a unique sonic perspective. From the deep and eclectic world of Sunju Hargun to the dancefloor-focused energy of Chalo and the Thai-rooted bootleg from Gus the Goof, these tracks showcase the vibrant and ever-evolving landscape of electronic music in Thailand.
Sunju Hargun continues to push boundaries with his latest Golden Triangle EP, set for release on March 1st. While the entire project is a masterclass in sound design and collaboration—including the work with GiGi FM—"Mekong" stands out as a particularly deep and introspective piece. A collaboration with Dutch artist Konduku, the track immerses listeners in hypnotic rhythms and textured soundscapes, evoking the mysticism and fluidity of the Mekong River itself. A must-listen from one of Thailand’s most innovative electronic artists.

Gus the Goof taps into Thai musical roots with his bootleg of Dieaw Suwanwaenthong’s "JANGJUMP!" This rework brings an electrifying blend of trap-infused drum patterns and dynamic sample play, transforming the original into a dancefloor-ready banger. The edit captures the spirit of contemporary Thai club culture, blending traditional influences with modern electronic elements in a way that’s both infectious and innovative.
