Bolis Pupul is the solo moniker of Belgian-Chinese producer, singer, and songwriter Boris Kor Tom Zeebroek. Bolis made a big splash in 2022 with the critically-acclaimed collaborative album Topical Dancer alongside Charlotte Adigéry and this year he released his solo debut album Letter To Yu, a love letter to his late mother who passed away in 2008 in a traffic accident. The touching album was released on Soulwax's DEEWEE label and finds Bolis embracing and coming to terms with his Chinese heritage through a sophisticated and thoughtful blend of synth-pop, techno, and experimental pop music.

For his exclusive guest DJ mix for Midnight in a Perfect World, Bolis takes the listener on an evocative journey through art-pop, synth-pop, experimental rock, and more, seamlessly stitching together songs from different genres and eras with a cohesive touch.
