Years of Denial - You Like It When It Hurts (Orphx Remix)

The Brvtalist is pleased to premiere a new track from Years of Denial. One of our favorite albums of the last year, Suicide Disco (Veyl), now gets a remix treatment from some of the most celebrated names across the industrial, techno and post-punk spectrums. Today we present the Orphx remix of “You Like It When It Hurts”, which takes the original and infuses the Canadian duo’s signature metallic, industrialized sound to create a tension building piece which beautifully catalyzes with Years of Denial’s dark romanticism. The release also includes remixes from Silent Servant, Alexey Volkov and Broken English Club. Definitely a strong companion to an already smash album.

Out on March 16th vinyl and digital with a limited run of transparent vinyl as well. Pick yours up via Veyl at: https://veyl.bandcamp.com/album/suicide-disco-remixes

Also be sure to catch Years of Denial (live) on March 14th in Munich, DE for New Romantic x The Brvtalist at club Rote Sonne. It will be our first showcase event in Munich and we are thrilled to be at such a great club along with Velvet May (live), P-T2 and yours truly of course. RSVP here and see flyer below.

Peter Kirn - "What We Forged Now" Video Premiere

The Brvtalist is pleased to premiere a new video from Peter Kirn. The U.S.-born, Berlin-based artist has been very active in his adoptive home with ongoing collaborations orbiting Wunderblock’s Moscow HQ. Chameleonic multitasker, electronic music composer and technologist, he has imagined a densely-packed, driving, dark form of cinematic techno experiments for his new EP, Objectors. The extended release mixes dreamlike harmonies and polyrhythms with aggressive, speedy subterranean techno, packed with unapologetically dirty and complex noises. Today we present “What We Forged Now” a relentless, celestial storm of abstract techno and extraterrestrial electronics. The video by Perceptual Automaton brings otherworldly visuals to this powerful composition.

The Brvtalist is proud to present a new mix from Olivia. The Polish artist initially became known as a resident of the world renown Unsound Festival and a leading figure of the Krakow underground through the We Are Radar party collective. She quickly rose to international prominence with her razor sharp mixes and productions. Inspired by the sounds of the 1980’s, Olivia journeys through angular acid, loose-limbed electro, futuristic Motor City techno, concrete-clad industrial music, surging EBM, twisted Italo, glacial cold wave and metallic new wave.

Today, Olivia has her hands in many projects, collectives and live performance projects. These include Morskie Oko (a hybrid live/DJ project with Chino and Steffan Bennemann), Radiation 30376 (a live show with Chino that debuted at Unsound 2019) and Chrono Bross, a collaborative initiative with Kinzo Chrome. She also recently joined the Oramics collective, a Polish initiative supporting the visibility of women and non-binary artists.

Olivia’s work quickly caught our attention and we are thrilled to have this entry to our series which puts her unique sound and technical prowess on full display. For more visit Resident Advisor and follow Olivia on Instagram.
