He reported that he was teased at school because of these scars and had few friends. As a result, he spent a lot of time alone and discovered his passion for music at an early age. Brejcha has been playing drums and keyboards since he was a child and was a drummer in a band for six months as a schoolboy.   <\/p>\n\n<p>A short time later, a classmate brought him a CD of the Dutch hardcore techno event Thunderdome, which was Brejcha&#8217;s first experience with this genre. At the age of twelve, he began producing electronic music himself as a hobby, albeit mainly trance at first. <\/p>\n\n<p>Due to his new hobby, Brejcha dropped out of school and completed an apprenticeship as a forwarding agent. He then worked part-time at Telekom Deutschland for a while, which gave him more time for his music. <\/p>\n\n<p>In 2006, he started his career as a tech house producer on the Autist Records label with the two singles Monster and Yellow Kitchen. In the same year, he also made his first appearance as a DJ at the Universo Paralello Festival in Brazil. A year later, after releasing several more tracks, he was named &#8220;Exceptional Talent 2007&#8221; by Raveline magazine, which marked his breakthrough in the electro scene.  <\/p>\n\n<p>After several years of successful collaboration with the <strong>Harthouse<\/strong> label, Brejcha founded his own music label <strong>Fckng Serious<\/strong> in 2015. He is joined on the label by musicians Deniz Bul, Ann Clue, Moritz Hofbauer and the duo Theydream. <\/p>\n\n<p>After Brejcha&#8217;s music enjoyed great popularity in South America in particular, a performance in front of Fontainebleau Castle in France in 2017 ensured that he also became well known in Europe. A recording of the event published by the music platform <strong>Cercle<\/strong> reached more than 54 million clicks online (as of February 2024). <\/p>\n\n<p>Further performances followed, the concert recordings of which were released by Cercle: 2019 at the Grand Palais in Paris and 2022 at the amphitheater in N\u00eemes. In July 2019, Brejcha released the track Gravity (feat. Laura Korinth) on <strong>Ultra Music<\/strong>. The recording of the <strong>Tomorrowland<\/strong> Festival 2018 reaches more than 100 million clicks (as of February 2024)  <\/p>\n\n<p>The single &#8220;Miracle&#8221; with <strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/musiknerd.org\/en\/artists\/leony\/\" title=\"Leony\">Leony<\/a><\/span><\/strong> was released in February 2024.<\/p>\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-handler-einbetten wp-block-embed-handler-einbetten wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n <div class=\"brlbs-cmpnt-container brlbs-cmpnt-content-blocker brlbs-cmpnt-with-individual-styles\" data-borlabs-cookie-content-blocker-id=\"youtube-content-blocker\" data-borlabs-cookie-content=\"PGlmcmFtZSB0aXRsZT0iQm9yaXMgQnJlamNoYSBGZWF0LiBMZW9ueSAtIE1pcmFjbGUgKEVkaXQpIiB3aWR0aD0iODAwIiBoZWlnaHQ9IjQ1MCIgc3JjPSJodHRwczovL3d3dy55b3V0dWJlLW5vY29va2llLmNvbS9lbWJlZC9JdGc0OVRTazdlcz9mZWF0dXJlPW9lbWJlZCIgZnJhbWVib3JkZXI9IjAiIGFsbG93PSJhY2NlbGVyb21ldGVyOyBhdXRvcGxheTsgY2xpcGJvYXJkLXdyaXRlOyBlbmNyeXB0ZWQtbWVkaWE7IGd5cm9zY29wZTsgcGljdHVyZS1pbi1waWN0dXJlOyB3ZWItc2hhcmUiIHJlZmVycmVycG9saWN5PSJzdHJpY3Qtb3JpZ2luLXdoZW4tY3Jvc3Mtb3JpZ2luIiBhbGxvd2Z1bGxzY3JlZW4+PC9pZnJhbWU+\"><div class=\"brlbs-cmpnt-cb-preset-c brlbs-cmpnt-cb-youtube\"> <div class=\"brlbs-cmpnt-cb-thumbnail\" style=\"background-image: url('https:\/\/musiknerd.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/borlabs-cookie\/1\/yt_Itg49TSk7es_hqdefault.jpg')\"><\/div> <div class=\"brlbs-cmpnt-cb-main\"> <div class=\"brlbs-cmpnt-cb-play-button\"><\/div> <div class=\"brlbs-cmpnt-cb-content\"> <p class=\"brlbs-cmpnt-cb-description\">You are currently viewing a placeholder content from <strong>YouTube<\/strong>.
