Miami is a city built on loops. The tide, the traffic, the basslines thumping through cracked warehouse walls. Time doesn’t flow here, it circles, it drips, it’s sticky.
Which is why Acid Baile, the new six track EP from Lamebot on Otto Von Schirach’s Bermuda Triangle Records, feels like such a perfect Miami document.
It doesn’t just play. It cycles, seamlessly looping the closing track back into the opener, daring you to ride again.
The focus track, “How Much Was 1g?”, drops like a rollercoaster on fast-forward. You got galloping basslines, high-pitched timbales, percussion cues ripped from bass and Latin house. It’s trippy and inducing. At 3am at a Miami club the room will go feral, some kid might actually levitate.
But this isn’t a rave weapon. It’s architecture.
The title track “Acid Baile” is a sub-heavy storm, vocals cutting through wandering riffs until the whole thing locks into a relentless groove.
“Touge” swerves like a midnight drive through mountain switchbacks, jagged snares, distorted synths, curves so sharp they feel dangerous until the euphoric acid release hits. And closer “Chaindrift” stretches the trip into house-inflected territory, a slow dissolve that loops you back to the start like time never existed in the first place.
That’s the manifesto hidden in the music: repetition, release, forward motion. Rave as religion, chaos as teacher. Lamebot sharpens his fusion of baile funk, acid, and Miami bass into something darker, sharper, more expansive. It’s a sonic trip for the heads who know the night never ends.
Lamebot Acid Baile Drop
Acid Baile drops this fall through Bermuda Triangle Records, available on all streaming platforms with a limited vinyl pressing for the collectors who still believe in wax. The EP is six tracks deep, structured like a continuous mix, clocking in just under 25 minutes. It’s short enough to replay, long enough to lose yourself. It’s Miami music at its core: underground, unpolished, undeniable.
We caught up with Lamebot to ask him about a recird release party. “I don’t have a traditional release party lined up, but I’ll be celebrating it through my monthly radio show, Strange Waves on Jolt Radio. That’s kind of my hub for showcasing new sounds, local producers/djs making waves in the scene, and it feels right to premiere Acid Baile there. Plus, I have been working it into my sets and will be part of future tour dates — so the dancefloors will definitely get the first taste.”
Look for Lamebot to support the drop with shows across town.
