Holland’s best-kept secret BRANE has been tearing up the dancefloors all across Europe for years both solo and as a part of different production teams in Germany and Holland.
England, Germany, France, Italy, the Netherlands - Brane spent most of his youth changing countries and influences, soaking up the sounds of the current environment. He started producing in 1999 when his first release ever, on German ZYX label, a cover of Yazoo’s “Only You†lit up the German Top 40, hitting Number 1 in Italy and going Top 10 in several other European countries.
What followed was a string of major releases, from the Brane co-produced compilation soundtrack to the US sci-fi series “Stargate†and remixes for a number of Euro Top 10 acts to more experimental releases on labels like Waterworld, UBL, Sonar, etc..
Moving to the Netherlands in 2002 he toured European clubs with his electroclash project Taylor Trash before hitting the UK clubs with the release of “The Walk†under the name X-Complex on Nukleuz. Hammered by, among others, BK who licensed it for his “Euphoria†compilation and hailed by Mixmag as “one of the best release’s from the Nukleuz stable for a long timeâ€, this electro-house stormer even got featured on Radio One more than a few times.
Brane kicked off 2007 by releasing the controversial “Fucking For Peace Is Like Fucking For Virginity†on Toptrax under the name Zombie Zoo which exploded on the electro DJ circuit, and started working as a part of the production duo behind the up-and-coming dance sensation Kim Leoni.
2007 saw Brane shedding his various aliases and signing to Ministry Of Sound for the release of “Up & Down†under his own name. Wicked beats, ass-kicking vocals and that funky, supercatchy bassline of “Up & Down†are set to take the clubs by storm, with remixes coming courtesy of Jeroenski, Prok & Fitch, Andy Daniell and Matt Thompson Vs Filth & Splendour.
