Dorhg - Melting (Kalter Ende Remix) (Atroc Records)

The Brvtalist is pleased to premiere a new track from Dorhg. Fixing Process is the artist’s new EP which also launches Atroc Records. The release reveals his experience and vocation for dynamic, rhythmic, deep and syncopated structures, through icy and mental sequences, without leaving aside the physical and directness in his message. Today we premiere “Melting” (Kalter Ende Remix), which is mechanical, weaponized techno which cuts deep beneath the surface.

The release is out on 12” vinyl and digital and you can pick it up though Ready Made.

The Brvtalist is proud to present a new track from Bours?. “Birds Of Marigny” comes off the big new v/a compilation from KTK Records which features styles ranging from acid to techno, and beyond, all united under one word: groove.

New Brvtalism No. 241 - Character Collapse

The Brvtalist is proud to present a new mix from Character Collapse. The alias of Alex Hall, he is also the founder of Manchester-based label Natural Sciences which has been a favorite label of ours to watch and is heading into its 50th release soon. This mix captures the North West of England as it heads into another stage of lockdown, bringing together a collection of odd ball post punk jams, Spanish minimal wave, proto-house and upcoming label jams from names that live in the shadows. We hope you enjoy this one as much as we do.

Totvm - K o n t i n u u m *Video Premiere*

The Brvtalist is proud to premiere a new video from Totvm. "K o n t i n u u m" is the first single from the Danish artist’s upcoming sophomore album, following 2019's debut full-length Passage. At first glance the track is a radical departure from former singles, with lyrics in his native Danish tongue and a heavier, almost orchestral, electronic production. However, the signature dramatic songwriting and romanticism of the debut album remains uniquely Totvm. Filmed between Copenhagen and Moscow earlier this year, the video is an eerie yet hypnotic journey through the artist’s enchanting sound.

Available now as a digital single and stay tuned for more information on the album coming this Fall. Pick up K o n t i n u u m now on Bandcamp.

Written, recorded & produced by Christoffer Bagge

Mix & Master by Philip at Copilco Productions.

Offermose - Sjælens Ruin *Video Premiere*

The Brvtalist is proud to premiere a new music video from Offermose. The Danish artist returns for his sophomore LP, Stilhedens Tårn, which is the powerful follow up to 2018’s debut album Mørkt Forår (2018, Third Coming, Pomperipossa). Today we present “Sjælens Ruin”, a looming work of dungeon wave and dark ambient synth abstractions which is as menacing as it is poetic. The video, created by Last Oblivion, is an aerial and dreamy descent reminiscent of the best work of the Berlin School.

Stilhedens Tårn looks to be one of the most anticipated releases this fall and it will be out on limied black and blue “Galaxy” vinyl, black vinyl, CD and digital October 16, 2020. Pre-order yours now from Bandcamp through Third Coming and Pomperipossa.

New Brvtalism No. 240 - Red Nailmaker

The Brvtalist is proud to present a new mix from Red Nailmaker. The anonymous post-industrial project derives its name from St.Petersburg's steel-rolling factory, a monument of 1930’s constructivism. Following the ethos of the art movement, Red Nailmaker delivers a raw, abstract and mechanical sound. Pushing through a boiling brew of techno, EBM, industrial, rhythmic noise and dub. New Brvtalism No. 240 is an exceptional mix of some of our favorite concepts, themes and sounds.
