Last Days EP by Boddah: A Techno Time Capsule That Still Kicks (In a Good Way)
So, here we are, diving into Last Days EP by Boddah, a little slice of French techno heaven released in 2015 under Sensum Digital. It’s one of those albums that doesn’t scream for attention but sneaks up on you like a cat in socks—subtle yet impossible to ignore. With its core genres being techno and electronic, and styles leaning toward minimal techno vibes, this EP is perfect for anyone who likes their beats crisp, moody, and just a touch mysterious.
Now, let’s talk tracks because, honestly, there are only so many ways I can wax poetic about “atmosphere” without sounding like an overpriced candle ad. The titular track, Last Days, slaps harder than expected. It opens with this brooding bassline that feels like walking through fog at 3 a.m.—you know something’s out there, but you’re not sure if it wants to hug you or haunt you. By the time the percussion kicks in, you’re fully submerged in its hypnotic groove. This isn’t background music; it demands your attention, kinda like when someone yells “fire” at a party. You just have to listen.
Then there’s Deadly Smile (Dan Bexley & Chad Bostock Remix)—a remix so good they included it twice. Probably because even robots need reminders of perfection. This version takes the original track and gives it a sleek makeover, layering in these sharp hi-hats and pulsating synths that feel like they were designed specifically to mess with your heartbeat. Every beat drop hits like caffeine straight to the soul. If this track doesn’t make you nod your head or accidentally fist-pump while waiting for the bus, check your pulse—you might be undead.
What makes Last Days EP stick in my brain? Maybe it’s how effortlessly cool it sounds without trying too hard. Or maybe it’s the fact that listening to it feels like stepping into some underground Parisian club where everyone pretends to hate each other but secretly loves the music. Either way, it's got character. And in a world full of cookie-cutter EDM bangers, character goes a long way.
Final thought? Listening to this EP feels like finding an old mixtape in the backseat of a borrowed car—it’s nostalgic, unexpected, and oddly comforting. Also, fun fact: techno music burns calories faster than thinking about doing sit-ups. So crank this bad boy up next time you’re pretending to work out. Your playlist—and possibly your abs—will thank you.
