“With nods to kuduro, tarraxo, dancehall, EDM and modern Latin club sounds like changa and raptor house, Bubbling Forever is an essential window into global club music sounds in 2024” (The Quietus)

Guillermo Schuurman (NL) from The Hague followed in the footsteps of his Dutch mentor DJ Chippie, the one and only pioneer of Dutch Urban Electric Sound. Schuurman began to blend bubbling rhythms, hip-hop samples, trance synths and electro wobbles. 

He put his own spin on bubbling using trap percussion, dubstep bass and dancehall kicks, without straying too far from the essence of bubbling. Fun fact: Bubbling first appeared in the Netherlands in 1988 when DJ Moortje accidentally spun a dancehall record at 45 instead of 33 rpm. The explosive audience reaction instantly brought a new sound to life. 

The Schuurman has released two albums on the iconic Nyege Nyege Tapes: Bubbling Inside (2021) and more recently Bubbling Forever, and album where Caribbean influences go hand in hand with flute, woodblocks, rap samples and ATL trap.
