[House] BRN – Freak Out

Posted by Tyler Trew - February 11, 2025

BRN kicks off 2025 with a bang, dropping “FREAK OUT,” a high-octane house anthem that puts a fresh spin on one of dance music’s most iconic vocal hooks. The track reworks the unmistakable “Aww freak out” sample, threading it through a tight, groove-driven framework that hits the sweet spot between nostalgia and modern club energy. That signature guitar riff is not forgotten, fine-tuned to perfection and riding a four-on-the-floor drum that refuses to quit. There’s no excess here—just precision, punch, and an irresistible flow designed to keep bodies moving until sunrise.

Hailing from Santa Catarina, BRN is a force of nature hailing from Brasil. His Tech House-rooted sound, splashed with shades of Bass House and Techno, has taken him from local haunts to headlining some of the country’s most respected venues, including Park Art, El Fortin, and The Garden. His production ethos is as sharp as his DJ sets – tight, impactful, and engineered to take the club to the next level.

The numbers don’t lie. With over 13 million Spotify streams and releases on labels like Catch & Release, Terminal Underground, and Virgin Music, BRN is in no rush to slow down. Heavyweights like Vintage Culture, Fisher, and Chris Lake have taken notice, and for good reason. Whether behind the decks or in the studio, BRN is proving that he’s got the chops to turn throwback grooves into future classics. “FREAK OUT” is just another step in his steady rise—and a reminder that some hooks are simply too good to fade away.

Posted by Marcus Daly - January 31, 2025

Young, relentless, and ready to take on the world, Marc Antonix is jumping into 2025 head first – crafting house, electro, and bass into something sharp, sleek, and undeniably his. Forget following trend, Antonix rewrites the script with unexpected drops, experimental basslines, and a vibe that feels both familiar and futuristic – his single “Visions,” is just the latest example of this.

“Visions” is where that all comes to life. It’s electro-house, but not in the way you’d expect. Retro synths flash like neon signs, chords swell with warmth, and a crystalline female vocal topline cuts through, floating above the production like it was made for this moment. Tight in its structure, loose in its energy, “Visions” finds the sweet spot between nostalgia while stilling pushing the limit when it comes to expectations.

Marc Antonix is well in motion. 840,000 Spotify streams and counting, plus live sets in LA are a regular and quite the crowd-pleaser.

Heavyweights like The Chainsmokers, Afrojack, Fedde Le Grand, and Bingo Players are paying attention, having supported the young up-and-comer in the recent past. The trajectory is clear: bigger stages, bigger records, and a vision that’s only getting more illustrative over time. Get ready for Marc Antonix to take you on a ride.
