With releases on staple electronic labels including
OWSLA,
MAD DECENT and
SLOW ROAST RECORDS, as well as two, Top 10 albums on the iTunes dance charts, all within the span of a year;
BRILLZ should be called the rookie
MVP of the Bass Music game.
Turning heads with his trapped-out blend of hip-hop and
EDM, Brillz’s interest in music stems from his history in the dance music scene. Introduced through the dance itself, Brillz was a founding member of a dance crew called Liquid Pop Collective before producing and DJing. The group would hold events on the East Coast, merging the dance styles of funk and hip-hop with the rave culture dance “Liquid”. As he progressed into production, these themes would carry through as a foundation of Brillz’s aesthetic.
After releasing a handful of tracks, it was a
KILL THE NOISE’s “Roots” remix on
SLOW ROAST RECORDS that really established him in the producer world. From there things took off. His next release was a two- track collaboration with
DIPLO on
MAD DECENT RECORDS. The EP featured the track “Swoop,” which was supported by a number of impactful DJs including
SKRILLEX,
KTN, 12th
PLANET, A-
TRAK,
ZEDS DEAD,
BASSNECTAR,
FLOSSTRADAMUS,
DILLON FRANCIS and many more.
