Brique a Braq is the musical brainchild of multitalented composer and pianist Derek Mount, also known by the nom de plume "Brother Brique." With an approach that intertwines neoclassical sensibilities, contemporary beat-making, and cinematic soundscapes, Brique a Braq has carved out a distinctive niche within the instrumental music scene. The project's focus on the piano at its core is evident in the hauntingly beautiful melodies and intricate compositions that have captured the ears of listeners worldwide.

Since its inception, Brique a Braq has gained recognition for creating pieces that feel both intimate and expansive, exploring the emotional depth of storytelling without words. The recent releases such as "Troubadour" (both solo piano and its fuller arrangement), "Sceptique," and "Iconoclaste" showcase a deft fusion of classical piano with ambient textures and modern production. Alongside singles like "Genèse" and "Smoking et robe du soir," Brique a Braq continues to offer immersive experiences that evoke introspection, nostalgia, and a poignant sense of grandeur. Whether through soul-stirring solo piano works or richly layered tracks, Brique a Braq's music remains a testament to the power of instrumental music in conveying universal emotions and storytelling.
