Live at The Barfly in London: Bragolin

The debut album I Saw Nothing Good So I Left (2018) featured the track Into Those Woods, which is now a modern-day dance floor classic. The song surpassed 10 million all-time streams in 2025, establishing BRAGOLIN as a consistent presence within the global Dark Wave and Gothic scene. In 2019, van der Velde collaborated with fellow Dutch artist ADAM TRISTAR on the second album Let Out The Noise Inside, which leaned further into electronic and synth-based production.

In 2026, BRAGOLIN release their new album I Don’t Like What It Does To Me, unfolding in gradually revealed chapters. Building on the project’s signature sound, the record combines Bass VI melodies, organ lines, and rich atmospheric production. Field recordings, synthetic ocean textures, water-phones, and experimental sound sources create a layered, immersive listening experience. The album features Feel This Flame Unfold, a duet with Dark Wave artist CARRELLEE.

In 2020, Edwin Daatselaar joined BRAGOLIN as synth player to form the current live duo. Both Edwins also play in ZWARTE POËZIE. BRAGOLIN have performed over 100 shows at festivals and clubs across Europe and Latin America, including appearances at Wave-Gotik-Treffen, Amphi Festival, and Cold Hearted Festival.
