Franck Vigroux’s mix of dramatic electronic glitches, decaying drones and musique concrète always comes with an extra hint of dystopian bitter aftertaste which permeates every single one of his releases, including his latest album “Barricades” which went out last December on Erototox Decodings. Both the music he creates and the music which inspires him have the potential to soundtrack a potential grim future that awaits us, and today’s mix comes as a testament of that. With tracks from Swans, Haus Arafna,Techno Animal, Swarm Intelligence and more, Franck Vigroux’s New Brvtalism No. 133 is an invitation to his inner world, as he describes it:
The mix includes different style of music I use to listen from minimal to noise from song writing to modern composition, each of them are the cornerstone of a musical genre. It's also a wave to those who are recently gone, Alan Vega and Mika Vainio.
