10 Tracks That Define The Savage Neo-Gabber Sound Of Poland’s WIXAPOL S.A. Party

From "pope core" to hardcore remixes of Italian ballads, Polish party crew WIXAPOL S.A. runs down the tracks that have defined its sound over the years.

As we’ve written before, Poland’s WIXAPOL S.A. is one of the most exciting parties in Europe. Wild, trollish and versed in the language of memes, it offers an environment of accelerated raving set to the sound of brainmelting uptempo neo-gabber tracks. The party’s SPORTY SPICE, MIKOUAJ REJW and TORRENTZ.EU combine an encyclopaedic knowledge of hardcore’s past with an irreverent and trollish approach to purism that regularly sees them mixing things up with donking hard bass, ridiculous nu-metal remixes and sounds from a satirical genre called “pope core”.

In the years since our profile on them in 2017, the crew has begun to expand outside of Poland and into the world. First they played Berghain, then they played Boiler Room and now they have a show on Rinse.FM. And, if you’re in Berlin, you can catch them tonight for a rare one-off party at Diskothek Melancholie 2.

To get in the spirit we asked WIXAPOL S.A. to provide us with a list of neo-gabber tracks that have come to define the party over the years. The crew’s TORRENTZ.EU clarified that “neo-gabber doesn’t necessary mean ‘dutch gabber/hardcore only’; it’s a fusion of many other style of course. Gabber is more about attitude, sense of humor and rave values than some strict technical definitions.”

In typical style, they provided us with some pretty amusing track descriptions. We’ve left them unedited.
