Eptic Releases “Tactix,” Flipping Joey Valence & Brae’s Hit

Belgian producer, Eptic, is teaming up with Joey Valence & Brae to remix the duo’s hit, “Punk Tactics” into “Tactix.” The single by Joey Valence & Brae found incredible success when it was released in 2022 and has gone on to gain forty-two million streams. The pair have been dropping 80s and 90s-inspired hip-hop bangers for only two years.

Reminiscent of Beastie Boys, their energetic beats and distinct flows touch on past eras and are now morphing into a bass-filled song by Eptic. “Tactix” goes just as hard as the original but in a different way as he carries his rock-influenced sound over to “Punk Tactics.”

Eptic’s choppy bass and quick tempo changes complement the rappers’ sped-up vocals threatening to, “Hit ya with the hard punk tactics” from the very beginning. The match seems unlikely, but all three artists are talented individually and have brought something fresh together in their partnership. The hip-hop track is flipped on its head, becoming an angry version of itself.

Following the release, Sunset and Escapade Music Festival are welcoming Eptic and he is gearing up to play his biggest headlining show at The Mission Ballroom in Denver at the end of the year. Joey Valence & Brae have a stacked schedule for this summer as they continue on their tour around the United States and Europe. In October they are opening for LSDream at Red Rocks.

Considering their distinct styles, Eptic dropping this remix is something we did not know we needed. Even for bass heads that do not listen to the duo, their newest release is worth giving a shot. Listen to Eptic and Joey Valence & Brae’s aggressive collaboration, “Tactix,” on any streaming platform.
