There is one name on track 15 that stops the scroll cold: NewJeansNim. South Korean comedian Yoon Seong-ho reinvented himself as the viral 'monk DJ' — shaved head, grey robe, EDM laced with Buddhist messages — and blew up in 2024 to the point that Malaysia ordered his performances halted and his Singapore show had to be stripped of religious elements. Here he signs 'Turn It Up Louder' with Jason, SunB and Sean Park (KR): 3:10 at 132 BPM, the one moment on the record where the name weighs more than the drop.
The rest of the cast plays a different game: the talent-nursery one. Nothing But operates like a factory of genre series — this 'Vibes' line runs parallel to the main Bass House series, already at least twenty-nine volumes deep — and its real job is giving floor time to producers who don't yet have a profile worth googling. Banza and Kjuus open with 'Trippy Dope' in G minor, and from there each signature defends its patch, mostly between 125 and 132 BPM.
A few names stand out through concrete decisions:
- Barker (US) breaks the album's tempo ceiling: 'Hold My Ground' nails 137 BPM in just 3:02, a sprint in the middle of the program.
- Sexgadget owns the most punk title of the batch, 'La Guerra Es Estúpida', stretching it to 5:38 in instrumental form.
- Alan Bass takes 6:47 — the longest cut — for 'Circuit pro', while also dropping to the 123 BPM floor.
- CRUNCHY CA$HEW and SHAMANINNE supply the only two remixes, with the 'Bombasquad Dutch Remix' of 'V12 TALK' as the rhythmic oddity.
That is the picture: one viral celebrity embedded among twenty-odd names without a Wikipedia page, and the sense that the label couldn't care less, because here the catalogue rules and the series rolls on. If anything holds Volume 17 together it isn't a star — it's the consistency with which all these unknowns claim their slot.
