Review by Florian Pankerl

Album Review: Brk Tch by Farace Released in 2009 on Kick It Recordings, Brk Tch by Farace is a gem that dives deep into the electronic music scene with its blend of Progressive House, Electro House, and Breaks. This US-based artist crafted something that still resonates with fans of dancefloor bangers and headphone-friendly grooves alike. While it's not perfect, the album—or more accurately, the EP—has moments that stick with you long after the beat drops. The tracklist is short but impactful, featuring remixes by Jake Shanahan and Memory Machine alongside the original mix. If I had to pick standouts, the Jake Shanahan Remix of “Brk Tch” would be one. Shanahan takes the energy up a notch, layering crunchy breaks over pulsating synths. It’s the kind of remix that feels like it belongs both in a packed club and your late-night drives when you're just vibin’. There’s an infectious grittiness here that makes it hard to forget. Then there’s the Original Mix, which leans heavier into progressive vibes. The build-ups are smooth, almost hypnotic, pulling you into this swirling vortex of sound. What sticks out isn’t just the technical skill—it’s how Farace manages to balance tension and release without overdoing it. You feel like you’re floating for a bit before being yanked back down by punchy basslines. It’s clever stuff, even if it doesn’t reinvent the wheel. The Memory Machine Remix has its charm too, though it doesn’t hit quite as hard as the other two versions. Still, it adds variety to the package, keeping things fresh across the runtime. Looking back at Brk Tch, it’s kinda wild how well it holds up. Sure, it came out during a time when electronic music was blowing up globally, but Farace carved out their own little niche here. And honestly? That’s what makes it special. It’s not trying to be everything to everyone; instead, it nails the vibe it sets out to create. One last thing—I gotta say, listening to this again made me realize how much fun breakbeat-infused house can be. In a world obsessed with minimalism or maximalism (pick your poison), albums like Brk Tch remind us that sometimes, all you need is a killer groove and a sprinkle of chaos. Oh, and maybe a better name than "Brk Tch," but hey, we can’t win ‘em all.
