Under the genre label of nu-gabber-post-techno-punk, Brutalismus 3000 have been setting dancefloors on fire in European clubs since their first singles in 2020, as well as causing a stir with an intense Boiler Room session in 2021.
Victoria Vassiliki Daldas and Theo Zeitner met on a Tinder date in Berlin, but the music that emerged from the meeting wasn't exactly sweet. Instead, the two quickly bonded over a shared love for the dark and post-punky Neue Deutsche Welle music and the hard-hitting, ultra-fast techno beats of the gabber scene. And soon they had created their own bastard baby out of this shared love: Brutalismus 3000.
The duo's music is sharp shooting, with a punk attitude and often sarcastic lyrics in English, German and Slovak, tearing the audience apart over a maelstrom of brutal gabber beats with elements of electroclash and hyperpop.
Bangers like "Bitchboss" and "Satan Was A Babyboomer" ooze the duo's caustic humor and attitude, and in 2023 Brutalismus 3000 finally released their debut album Ultrakunst. With hits like "Die Liebe Kommt Nicht Aus Berlin", the album lives up to both the hype and the brutal reputation.
Brutalismus 3000 are now getting ready to give Roskilde Festival a hard-hitting lesson in edgy gabber-punk, so strap in for a wild ride!
