[WITCHSTEP] If you Google “witchstep,” the genre most befitting Bruxa, the band’s SoundCloud is the first result. Bruxa is the most appropriate choice to lead occult-ish electronic music away from the contrived witch-house genre that blew up in 2010. The music’s just as creepy but easier to dance to. Houston’s chopped-and-screwed rhythms pair best with a sofa and a large glass of codeine-laced sizzurp. Bruxa, on the other hand, takes much stronger cues from dubstep. Most tracks on 2012’s Victimeyez are bona fide dubstep tracks, but some find influence from IDM and hip-hop. All would work well in a strobe-lit warehouse.
