The Brvtalist is pleased to premiere a new track from Sophie Du Palais. "Slow Steady Cum" is off the German vocalist, Amsterdam-based artist's debut solo LP, ‘Endurance Of Pain Is The Power Of Being’, out this week on B.F.E. records. With her unmistakable voice and infectious body-wave infused sound, Du Palais has been one of our favorite artists of the past few years and this LP elevates her work to the next level.

Across six tracks of sinister industrial wave music, Du Palais unravels a potent signature, driven by fierce, imperious Anglo-Germanic vocals and eclectic, dissonant sounds. Connecting techno, EBM, acid and electro with vestiges of dub and experimental electronics, on ‘Endurance of Pain…’ Du Palais conjures an abrasive, intoxicating depiction of lust, hedonism, technological obsession and millennial alienation.

‘Endurance of Pain is the Power of Being’ is out on limited edition vinyl and digital formats on July 15th via B.F.E. Records. https://bferecords.bandcamp.com/album/bfe67-sophie-du-palais-endurance-of-pain-is-the-power-of-being-lp

French producer, December, returns to Tresor with An Accident In Favor Of Human Life, the second part of his Transform project, which continues the exploration of themes such as hybridisation and the boundaries of the self that were undertaken in June 2023's What Remains of Us? 

Transform Part 2 finds December increasing the intensity of his output as the Industrial and electro influences in his musical crucible come to the fore adding a punching tungsten toughness to the beats, welded and riveted to myriad other sources including post punk, ambient, and musique concr&egrave;te adding a more melodic and emotional edge than the darker hues of Part 1. 

The product of this is a collection of juddering and staccato pieces that call to mind steampunk as much as the glittering sci-fi most often invoked by electronic works. 

As per the first instalment, the cover art of In Favor Of Human Life continues the ongoing creative partnership between December and visual artist Marie Qu&eacute;au whose photograph appears to show a human face that straddles the boundary between the familiar and unsettling. 

When Parts 1 &amp; 2 are listened to consecutively, as a complete work, elements in one half reverberate into the other revealing a refined pattern and a landmark work by an artist coming to a new peak of creative power.

What started as a live stream at Moscow’s Mutabor on 3rd May 2020, has morphed into the first instalment of a new digital compilation series on трип: Hot Steel.

The concept is simple: trip head Nina Kraviz announces the stream date and sends out a call to artists for their unreleased work to oidodekraviz@gmail.com, all genres are welcome. After the stream takes place, the favourite tracks are signed and a few weeks later Hot Steel is released. 

To kick off the series, Hot Steel features newcomers, fresh talent and already established artists from all over the world: from New Zealand to Spain, Belgium, Italy, Germany, Poland to the US and Canada, but also Russia, France, the Netherlands and Georgia. 

Hot Steel will be released on 19th June to join Bandcamp in their commitment on that day and give 100% of the sales from the compilation to NAACP Legal Defense Fund.
