Brenmar's FACT Mix


There's a special place in, let's call it my "heart" for FACTMag mixes. Perpetually long, endlessly complex and inventive, none sounds the same as the other. The newest, from Chicago producer Brenmar, is every bit perplexing as it is casually obscure. The chunky R&B and house rhythms are juxtaposed next to ambient twitches, making for nearly an hour of rooftop party soundtracks. Check it out below.
