From whoisbrux to gentlemensclub, check out the February 2020 edition of billboarddance's Emerging Artists
Before an artist blows up, they first must heat up, collecting streams, fans, collaborators and choice gigs as they make their way and their name in the scene. The five artists below are doing just that, with their music -- falling all along the electronic spectirum -- powering these rises. In a sea of DJ selfies, you’d be hard pressed to find Australian producer Brux’s visage on the Internet -- well, sort of.
When Brux launched in early 2018, she intended to tap into a musical side that she described as “dark, raw and unapologetic.” Singles such as “I’m Back,” “Paper Boy” and “B.W.P” rattle rooms with grinding synths and rumbling bass, but with their darkness also comes light via quirky and energetic sonics, like strobing neon doodles against pitch black. Interestingly, Brux’s vocals and songwriting abilities -- vestiges of her previous project -- are again some of her biggest strengths.
She takes social commentary, from the female gaze to social-media obsession, and filters it through a singular club lens while retaining that pop earworminess. It’s catchy but not cheesy; cool and intentional without being preachy. Keep an ear out for Brux’s next move, as her debut EP,The bass rave bounces extra hard when UK trio Gentlemens Club takes over the decks.
A resident of London's iconic nightclub fabric, Thompson has made a name for himself as the "track ID?!"-inducing name behind addictive house remixes of classics including Kanye West's "Flashing Lights" and off-the-wall choices like theme song, "Bring It to the Runway.
Out on February 3 via PIV Records, "Thirsty Eyes" is the latest evidence of a sharp production style favoring low-slung, rolling bass lines and mischievous and sultry vocal hooks. While Jaden will certainly be playing this one out at his own upcoming gigs across the U.K., there's no doubt his growing legion of revered DJ fans will be making use of it in their sets around the world too.
