French producer Boston Bun has returned with some of his best work to date with his album MIXED FEELINGS released on 25 October via the Future Classic imprint.
MIXED FEELINGS is Boston Bun’s second album, and features 11 masterfully crafted house infused tracks. 2024 has been a year of profound polarity for Boston Bun as he’s experienced insurmountable joy due to the birth of his child, but he’s also experienced emotional turbulence due to family tragedies. So, for Boston Bun, the album is a culmination of gratitude and celebration as well as grief and turmoil.
Speaking on the album, Boston Bun divulges; “(It’s) a reflection on the ephemerality of our societies. Art, objects, human skills, or relationships – everything is more ephemeral than ever. It makes us feel replaceable. I started to think of all of my productions as emotional postcards that I sent to the future. I imagined a random kid somewhere in the world finding out about these tracks in 100 years, listening to a weird pirate radio. From then, inspiration was unlimited.

The paradox of the album also extends to the state of the world in 2024, with wars raging, governments, systems and regimes crumbling and natural disasters taking place now more than ever. It’s also a reflection of how fleeting our attention spans are as a society, and how on one side of the world people are living in bliss while on the other end people are experiencing the most heinous forms of suffering and injustice. Boston Bun sheds light on this; “MIXED FEELINGS is the best way to describe how it feels to be alive in 2024 – a lot of contradictory emotions; a lot of nonsense. You can be at a party, look at your phone, see a city being bombed live somewhere, a flooding killing thousands somewhere else, and put your phone back in your pocket and keep dancing.”
The album’s opening track ‘NOBODY // ME’ has been selected as part of the FC (FKA FIFA) 2025 soundtrack, alongside world-renowned artists Billie Eilish, Charli XCX, Glass Animals, Fred again.., and Disclosure. The album is a triumphant feat for Boston Bun, and the themes and messages behind it will undoubtedly resonate with a vast audience. Boston Bun is ushering in a new era in his career and it’s bound to break new grounds.
