Brandt Brauer Frick

Brandt Brauer Frick is a Berlin-based experimental trio blending classical instrumentation with electronic club music. Formed in 2009 by Daniel Brandt, Jan Brauer, and Paul Frick, they’re known for flipping techno conventions by swapping synths for pianos, strings, and percussion in chaotic, groove-heavy compositions. Their work often feels like a sweaty warehouse rave colliding with a contemporary chamber ensemble – think driving rhythms meets intricate orchestral arrangements.

They’ve released genre-bending albums like *Miami* (2016) and *Echo* (2020), and their recent remix-heavy projects (like the tracks listed) show their collaborative spirit, reworking tracks with artists ranging from pianists like Lambert to electronic acts like Grandbrothers. Live performances might feature anything from a 10-piece orchestra to stripped-down acoustic versions, keeping their neo-classical-meets-techno identity fresh. Their music often feels both meticulously composed and thrillingly unpredictable, like a dancefloor rebellion with string quartets.
