With such an influential Classical music background, you'd never think that Bram Faber aka Brabe would turn to House music at the age of 16. Not only does he play violin, trumpet, piano and viola, but also masters production skills in his Amsterdam based studio. For his first appearance on Urban Torque, Brabe releases two jaw-dropping records in which singer/songwriter Lavalu, Holland's dazzling Nu Pop sensation, lends her voice to the first recording. Marielle Woltring aka Lavalu is a multitalented artist who played at the Montreux Jazz Festival in 2009 alongside Graces Jones and B.B. King after her first EP’s major success: ‘Now’.
