Bringing together two distinctive voices from Germany’s contemporary electronic scene, the release blends pounding techno, trance-infused melodies and commanding German-language vocals into a high-energy club cut. The collaboration reflects both artists’ signature styles, balancing hard-edged production with melodic intensity across both Extended and Radio Edit versions.

Cologne-based Kiki Solvej has built a reputation through her work as a DJ, producer and vocalist, with releases including Heute Nacht and Deutsches Rave Mädchen, while LARI LUKE has become known for her genre-blurring productions that move between techno, bass music and rave influences.

Out on Reinier Zonneveld’s Filth on Acid and available to stream & purchase here, ‘Der Bass Ist Brutal’ continues the label’s run of forward-thinking techno while showcasing the evolving crossover between hard techno, schranz and melodic electronic music emerging from Germany.
