Bromsen, the vibrant Indietronic duo from Berlin, comprising the immensely talented Richard and Karlo Bromsen, possess a profound passion for crafting entrancing melodies adorned with the rich textures of synthwave and guitar elements.
Their musical journey began with a triumphant trio of singles: “Merryman,” “The Photograph,” and “We!” These compositions garnered praise from the independent press and found homes on independent radio station playlists across the globe, spanning from North America and the UK to France, Brazil, and beyond.
Nonetheless, it’s their most recent creation, “Read About It,” introduced to the world on July 14th via Epictronic, that encapsulates the very essence of their artistic spirit. This song serves as a heartfelt tribute to musicians who wholeheartedly devoted their lives to their craft, living and breathing their art. While these creative souls crafted extraordinary music and art, their journeys were often fraught with personal challenges. Regrettably, they are no longer with us, but their priceless music and stories endure, offering profound lessons and cherished memories.
“Read About It” extends its genuine homage not only to iconic figures like Jim Morrison and Kurt Cobain, whose enduring legacies have ignited the passions of countless admirers but also to lesser-known artists who, despite their remarkable talents, met similar fates. These unsung heroes might not have basked in widespread recognition during their lifetimes, but their art remains an enduring testament to their unwavering passion and limitless creativity.
The Bromsen narrative spans over two decades, intricately intertwining the destinies of Richard and Karlo Bromsen. In the mid-2000s, they graced stages as part of “The Pampelmuse,” delivering electrifying performances at numerous indie rock venues across Berlin. Their musical voyage appeared poised for greatness, but destiny had different plans, leading to the band’s disbandment in 2006, just as they stood on the brink of a potential breakthrough.
Many years later, fueled by an unwavering passion for music, Karlo and Richard made the decision to rekindle their musical dreams. The outcome? A triumphant resurgence onto the music scene as Bromsen, where they showcase their distinct fusion of synthwave and guitar elements. Their unique sonic identity is characterized by a resonant wall of sound, underpinned by raw, soaring vocals that beckon listeners to groove along and join in harmony.
Bromsen’s initial trio of singles earned them acclaim from indie press outlets, and their music reverberated across independent radio stations around the world, including North America, the UK, France, Brazil, and beyond.
As Bromsen readies themselves for the eagerly anticipated release of their debut album, “Brothers in Mind,” later this year, “Read About It” stands as a poignant testament to their musical journey. It serves as a poignant reminder of the indelible impact of artists who breathe life into their art and pays tribute to the indomitable spirit of those whose creative legacies continue to inspire and resonate with global audiences. Bromsen’s musical odyssey embodies a tale of resilience, unwavering dedication, and an enduring commitment to crafting melodies that transcend time, resonating with the very essence of the human soul.
