BRIXX - "CONVERSION THERAPY" LP

There is nothing predictable about Conversion Therapy. While the EP captures the vivacity of electronic music at the turn of the 1990s when synthesizer and sample experimentation was at its peak, its four cinematic tracks inject a sincerity into the current landscape of dance music.

Underpinned by a darkness, Brixx’s music acts as a lens through which to explore the human condition and CONVERSION THERAPY is no exception.

Rather than a narrative about repression or a forced change in sexual orientation, this release celebrates queer identity and disassociating from what it means to be heteronormative.

CONVERSION THERAPY is inspired by the gamut of emotions and subsequent journey leading up to and following the coming out process. The EP draws on the artist's love of David Lynch, cult queer cinema classics and film composers such as Heathers’ David Newman. It’s a mental trip encompassing repressed desire, frivolity, transformation and ultimately acceptance – a late night soundtrack which drops you into a world tinged with darkness that encompasses techno, new beat, EBM and breaks.

Conversion Therapy, while dismal and looming with dread, moves towards the light.
