Brava is the debut studio album by French electronic producer Brodinski. It was released through Parlophone, Warner Music and his label Bromance on 3 March 2015.
Background[edit]
The album was described as "infused... with all the influences that have fueled him over the years."[2] AllMusic reviewed the album, stating it consists of "a unique voice, one that's choppy, quirky, welcoming, and likely smells of blunts when it burps."[3] PopMatters suggested the album is "a reminder that Brodinski helped plant the seed but is perhaps not the right gardener to help it grow."[4] Billboard called the album a "hazy, seductive blend of trap and techno."[5] while Clash Music asserted the album to be "one of the year's most disposable albums".[6]
