Thrill presents. Bapari [Halcyon Veil, NAAFI], Morstaq, Chosen1 [Frøya Records/Skitne Kroner]

Bapari [Halcyon Veil, NAAFI]
Bapari’s fourth EP, Evermore, is now streaming on Halcyon Veil. The project marks a bold new chapter in the Haitian-American producer’s sonic evolution. For the first time, Bapari steps into the role of vocalist, weaving their voice into live instrumentation with raw, layered vulnerability. Known for blurring the lines between electronic, ambient, and percussive club forms—including production on the latest FKA Twigs album, Eusexua—Bapari fuses a range of genres, from shoegaze to trip hop to electronic, to craft their most personal work to date.
The choice to pick up the mic is a natural one for a club artist who's always been obsessed with the expressive potential of vocals, from their earliest edits of pop stars and rappers like Beyoncé, Cassie, and Vanessa Carlton to collaborations with Lolahol and Kidä on their third EP, Oasis (Halcyon Veil, 2023). Evermore’s release has already taken Bapari on a seven-city European tour, with debuts in Lisbon, Milan, Venice, and Athens.
Bapari’s previous three releases have been featured in publications like Mixmag, Resident Advisor, Interview, Flaunt, Dancewax, Paper, and DJ Mag. They are a five-time Boiler Room headliner and have hosted the monthly show Puffy on NTS Radio since 2019. Bapari has collaborated on performances, soundtracks, and campaigns with a range of brands and designers, including Barragan, YSL Beauty, i.am, ON Running, Levi’s, No Sesso, New Balance, Red Bull, and Ōura. Their DJing has taken them from the warehouses of downtown LA and Brooklyn, to clubs across Europe, Australia, Japan, and Mexico, to events at museums like MOCA L.A. and the Institute of Contemporary Arts in London.
Now based in their hometown of Los Angeles, after a half-decade in New York, Bapari pay her very first visit to Norway for the 1st edition of Thrill kickstarting the series with many more editions to come.
Morstaq
With more than a decade in the rhythmic scene, both as a curator and a musician, Morstaq has been shaping the sound of electronic music from Oslo, with several bands and projects, and a forthcoming solo debut EP.
Chosen1 [Frøya Records/Skitne Kroner]
The prolific Oslo based experimental guitarist and producer is involved in projects even beyond our knowledge, recently with his band Skitne Kroners self titled full length debut on Borgenheim Rosenhoff. In addition to his solo and band outputs he has bent our minds with DJ-sets reminiscent of nothing we’ve heard before
