Christian Valentin Brunn (born 20 July 1994), better known by his stage name Virtual Riot, is a German DJ and electronic music producer. He has released seventeen extended plays and two studio albums, most notably his 2016 extended play Chemistry, which peaked at 20 on Billboard's Dance/Electronic Albums charts and his 2018 extended play German Engineering, which peaked on the Dance/Electronic Digital Song Sales chart at the No. 11 position. He was signed to the independent music label Disciple Recordings in 2014.[3] On 16 April 2019, he announced a publishing deal with Skrillex's OWSLA.[4]

Career

[edit]

Brunn has had numerous Beatport chart hits including "One For All, All For One" with Razihel and "Cali Born" with Helicopter Showdown.[5] Other electronic music outlets, such as Your EDM, have called his music "non-traditional" and "edgy", comparing him to artists like Savant.[6]

Prior to producing under the alias "Virtual Riot", Brunn produced ambient dubstep and future garage music under another alias, Your Personal Tranquilizer.[7]

Brunn has released several EPs under British record label Disciple Records, including his charted EP, Chemistry.[8] He produces in genres such as riddim, future bass, future garage, electro house, and both bass-heavy and melodic dubstep.

On August 9, 2021, Brunn announced his debut studio album titled Simulation, which was released on September 10.[9]
