Pierre Berge-Cia - If You Do Then When [Depth.Request]

No microphones, no recordings. Just a blank digital canvas and a single intention: to translate into sound what an emotional hydrograph might trace.

Each track on this EP draws its own curve: unpredictable flows, sudden surges, deceptive calms. Oscillators stretch, shatter, recombine; rhythms emerge like waves, then dissipate. The experimentation is total digital tools are pushed to their breaking point, teetering on the edge of implosion.

In this process, Ableton is no longer a sequencer but an electronic river.
A shifting bed where sound flows, stagnates, and overflows. No sound was captured: everything was synthesized, processed, distorted, sculpted from pure digital abstraction. And yet, in every modulation, one can sense an artificial breath, an attempt at life.

Listening to this EP means following these invisible hydrographs: feeling the peaks, the troughs, the drifts, surrendering to instability. Because here, nothing is stable and it is within this very instability that emotion is born.

The Brvtalist is pleased to premiere a new track from Ruben Borgers. "Lofting" comes off the new EP, Local Maxima, forthcoming on Portugal's Colectivo Casa Amarela. The release is a journey, a weaving together of fleeting visions from parallel, yet intertwined sonic realms. It ventures boldly through a rich tapestry of sounds and textures, each track born not from rigid intention but from an unrelenting pursuit of the elusive, those shimmering, transient spaces in the soundscape, like the mysterious limbo of Vaalbara. The music unfolded live, forged in real-time with an arsenal of synthesizers. In these moments, delicate interactions gave way to sudden storms of chaotic experimentation, the machines pushed beyond their thresholds, revealing hidden voices at the edge of collapse. This album is more than a collection of tracks, it’s an open invitation. Step inside, and perhaps you’ll find yourself tapping into the same emotional landscapes that Ruben traversed while creating it: wonder, vulnerability, and the thrill of discovery in the unknown.

PREMIERE: Ruben Borgers - Lofting [CCA042]

Premiere: § (sección) es una reflexión: un flashback a la energía cruda y underground de la era rave post-Covid, antes de que la escena se saturara con las tendencias mainstream y la estética comercial. Es un llamado a recordar cómo se sentía la pista de baile: íntima, intensa y sin filtros.
El EP The Last Wish se inspira en la narrativa de los videojuegos, donde, al final, un portal te transporta al principio. Ese movimiento cíclico refleja el último deseo del artista: volver a las raíces: a los almacenes empapados de sudor, al sonido inquebrantable, al underground. No es nostalgia por sí misma, es una rebelión sónica. Un bucle temporal. Un ritual. Un último deseo para rebobinar la escena…

Premiere: § (section) is a reflection - a flashback to the raw, underground energy of the post-Covid rave era, before the scene became saturated with mainstream trends and commercial aesthetics. It’s a call to remember what the dancefloor used to feel like: intimate, intense, and unfiltered.
The EP The Last Wish draws inspiration from the video game narrative in which, at the very end, a portal sends you back to the beginning. That cyclical motion mirrors the artist’s final wish: to return to the roots — to the sweat-drenched warehouses, to the uncompromising sound, to the underground. This is not nostalgia for the sake of it — it’s a sonic rebellion. A time loop. A ritual. A last wish to rewind the scene…
