Three years after Brillz made his breakout appearance on Mad Decent’s free music offshoot imprint Jeffree’s, the Twonk originator has inked a deal with Diplo’s record label proper.
Brillz has been showcasing his Mad Decent material on his 40+ date TWONK Di NATION Tour which kicked off in November in New York and has already hit spots in along the east coast and much of the eastern half of the US. This week they’ll be taking on Texas, with dates in San Marcos (just south of Austin, Houston and Dallas scheduled for the 28th, 29th and the 30th. These Texas venues are intimate spots with booming sounds systems, if your in the Lone Star State make sure you make it out to this one!
Brillz will be accompanied by his homies Party Favor, Jackal, DOTCOM, Ghastly, LAXX, Kayzo, Party Thieves, Willy Joy, Y2K, Aryay, Dr. Fresch, and Infuze amongst others. The Twonk brand – a lethal cacophony of rattling percussion, twisted vocal chops, serrated laser synths and high-octane bass – has permeated dance floors the world over. After performing more than 150 shows within the last two years including sets at Lollapalooza, Electric Zoo, EDC Las Vegas & Orlando and Nocturnal Wonderland, Brillz is ready to once again serve up a hearty helping of barreling beats on his TWONK Di NATION tour.
Brillz Mad Decent EP Geekin released in October with the same thunderous verve felt within Brillz’ previous two albums – 2013’s Twonk and its subsequent Re-twonked remix collection – which both broke into the Top 10 of iTunes’ Dance chart. Give it a listen below, and don’t forget to make it out to the Twonk Di Nation tour, coming to a city near you! Full tour dates below.
