The Brvtalist is pleased to premiere a new track from Markus Midnight. "Northern Heat" comes off the Canadian artist's new album, Night Work, out August 1st on vinyl format. Midnight has been crafting his unique brand of synth pop for the past 13 years and Night Work explores local and global themes, using oblique vocals which not so subtly hint about living in a region that is obsessed with oil and harvesting natural resources - at any cost. The artwork portrays a Mad Max apocalyptic nightmare that Markus has envisioned since childhood, in a place where the pump jack and oil derrick are glamorized ahead of everything else.

Today we bring you the album's lead track, "Northern Heat" which is an infectious piece that touches on the seemingly obliviousness of residents to and unfolding catastrophe, all with an otherwise upbeat energy.

PREMIERE: Markus Midnight -  Northern Heat

The second instalment of sonic explorations. Fusing the line between past and present styles. Ice cold arpeggios, muddy bass lines, and stripped back vocals. 

All tracks recorded live to a Yamaha MT4X cassette mixer using a Korg KR-55b, ARP 2600, Roland SH-101, and Korg MS-20.

Benedikt Frey is many. Or just one? He is a composer. An arranger. A DJ. A ghost producer. A fan. He plays in bands like INIT, or Dolphins or KEYS +++ produced the last two albums for Chris Imler. Downbeat in experimental dub zones. The goat for Edits and remixes. When house was his nation, he used to listen to pen names like Suedmilch or Venedikt Reyf. He still likes the music formed under their umbrella, but today his tomorrow is not echoed in yesterday. His sound signature moved on. Into the open. He founded labels like R.i.O. or Serious Trouble. 

He lives in Berlin. Physically. In mind Benedikt Frey is at many places. Traveling far thru his home studio that is a flat a studio a flat an instrument a record collection a flat a studio. Everywhere gear, vinyl, tapes, instruments, rooms for spontaneous sonic notions, these moments, when a sudden strike of stimulation falls. He is inspired a lot. For music to dance. Music for films. Music for live shows. Music for dancing glows. Techno, house, downbeat, ambient, jungle, electronics outside the norms. Those transportive ones. Jamming with others. Jamming with his mind. In Berlin Wedding, North of the town, where the lights dimmed low, neighbors share the flow, and a small river runs slow.  As a DJ he plays here, there, everywhere. Big clubs, small shacks, festivals, gatherings. From fast to 90 BPM - as he feels. 

For himself. For the crowd. In the spur. He still remembers his club kid days. Going to dance with friends. Down there in Offenbach. Doing the Robert Johnson. Collective emotions for a better tomorrow. These he still seeks. In his music. His shows. His collaborations. You can book him for a party. For enlightenment. For ecstasy or introspective perspectives. Dancing slow, whilst pirouetting a high-pitched show. 

Since more than a decade. His own music is out there, too. Bringing his spirits in sound. On his own labels. On international imprints like ESP Institute, Hivern Discs, Craigie Knowes, or Emotional Response. Solo works. Driving ones. Slow drills. Teased during his DJ dates around the planet. 

The music plays day and night. Inspiration comes. From a simple kick drum. A movie sequence. A bird on the sill. A picture, totally still. Can’t kick that feeling when it hits. Benedikt Frey. In dreams. In streams. In music. Emotions. Situations. At night. In those flashy lights, when it bites.
