Bristol-based rave innovator and electronic producer Cheff the Boy has officially announced a powerhouse four-track EP titled 92 N You, due out on November 27 through Nia Archives' tastemaking label Up Ya Archives Records. The release was confirmed alongside explosive lead single Hardcore Is The Future, a track whose relentless breakbeats and euphoric pitch-shifted vocal samples make an undeniable manifesto.

Over the past three years, Cheff the Boy has emerged as one of the UK underground's most exhilarating talents, releasing high-octane club anthems across respected labels including Hardcore Energy, Not 4 Human Consumption, Intaception, and Demolition Squad. His tracks have received heavy rotation from scene leaders such as Nia Archives, Sherelle, 4AM KRU, Sim0ne, and Pete Cannon, fueled by incendiary festival appearances at Glastonbury and Boomtown.

Hardcore Is The Future was the foundational cut produced specifically for the Up Ya Archives project, perfectly encapsulating the raw warehouse energy of early 1990s rave culture filtered through state-of-the-art modern bass compression. The forthcoming EP also features 92 N You, Drive Me Wild, and People in Luv.

The EP marks a pivotal milestone for Cheff the Boy, representing a cohesive artistic statement that honours the UK's rich jungle and rave heritage while thrusting it into contemporary sound system culture.

Apparently the future of electronic music remains gloriously loud, and anybody hoping for a quiet evening should probably avoid standing directly beside the speakers. Explore more high-energy dance music and breakbeat explorations in our electronic section.
