Brigado Crew make their highly anticipated debut on Purified Records with their brand new EP, Here I Am. Featuring three standout tracks—‘Here I Am’ (with Clér Letiv), ‘Kattegat’ (with Crisstiano), and ‘Declive’ (with Peces Raros)—the Argentine duo blends house and techno with sweeping synths, ethereal soundscapes, and powerful basslines. With their signature style and collaborative edge, this release marks a major milestone for the duo.
Your new EP, Here I Am, marks your debut on Purified Records. What does this release mean to you, and how did the collaborations with Clér Letiv, Crisstiano, and Peces Raros come about?
This release means a lot to us. Purified Records has always been a goal for us, a label we’ve admired and aspired to be a part of. Now that it’s happening, we’re truly enjoying every moment of it!
Each track on the EP explores different sonic landscapes. Can you walk us through the creative process behind these three tracks and how they reflect your artistic evolution?
We wanted this EP to have a strong conceptual identity, which is why we collaborated with three different artists—one for each track. This approach allowed us to explore diverse sonic landscapes while staying true to our vision. Each collaboration helped us recreate the atmosphere we aimed for, making the EP a true reflection of our artistic evolution.
The EP has been described as both cinematic and deeply immersive. How do you balance melody, atmosphere, and driving energy in your productions?
From the very beginning, we’ve been intentional about blending house and techno, weaving melody and atmosphere into all our tracks. It’s something we love doing – creating a balance between energy and emotion, rhythm and depth.
What kind of emotions or experiences do you hope listeners take away from Here I Am?
We want listeners to experience a short movie in their minds – about 13 or 14 minutes of pure emotion, where they can immerse themselves in the journey of the music.
Your music blends elements of melodic house and techno with a strong cinematic influence. How did your journey into electronic music begin, and what shaped your signature sound?
From the very first beat we created together, melodies were always a key element for us. We started out making tech house with melodies, but it didn’t quite click. So, we kept evolving, experimenting, and refining our sound. After years of exploration, we found that what truly resonates with us is blending house and techno in a way that reflects our unique signature.
Who are some of your biggest musical influences, both inside and outside of electronic music?
Nice question, hmmm – Freddy Mercury and Queen of course, Pink Floyd, A-ha, and inside electronic music Eric Prydz, Hernan Cattaneo, Oliver Koletzki
Now that this EP is out, what’s next for Brigado Crew? Can fans expect more releases or exciting collaborations in the near future?
We have a big year ahead, with plenty of releases lined up! Fans can expect around eight more tracks, so stay tuned – there’s a lot of exciting music on the way!
Do you have any upcoming shows or festival appearances where fans can experience your music live? What can they expect from a Brigado Crew set?
Yes! We have a huge upcoming showcase for our label in Mendoza, Argentina, on March 29. It’s going to be a special night, and we can’t wait to share our music live with everyone!
