The party doesn’t stop with Joey Valence & Brae, who have just released an extended version of their third studio album ‘HYPERYOUTH’. Featuring popular tracks ‘BUST DOWN’ and ‘LIVE RIGHT’, fans can expect to hear the beloved upbeat compilation alongside 6 new bonus tracks. Produced and written entirely by Joey Valence & Brae (JVB), they say the album is an experience of growing up and, importantly, about dancing. And now, the dancing carries on: the deluxe version ‘HYPERYOUTH: Afterparty’ is finally out.
JVB bring to ‘HYPERYOUTH’ high energy, wit and charm, and an eternal credit to being a 90’s kid. The album is an unmistakable tribute to the rap/rock fusion of The Beastie Boys melded with modern hip-hop head-banger rhythms. Highly influenced by popular culture but still the same kids raised on Pokemon, video games, and the internet, JVB are throwing a party that never stops and everyone is invited – so long as you’re dancing.
‘HYPERYOUTH Afterparty‘ brings its beloved silly but endlessly feel good sound in 6 brand new tracks. Preceding the original 14-track compilation are new dance-inducing tracks ‘friends’, ‘push the pipe’, ‘how does it feel to be young’, ‘bustamove’, ‘i like this’, and ‘changes’. The new tracks elevate the album’s youthful spirit with their love of the dancefloor and JVB’s ode to never truly growing up.
“Nobody wants to dance anymore… let’s bring that life back into the culture.” – JVB say in interview with Kerrang.
The deluxe release is perfectly timed as JVB are soon to kick off their HYPERYOUTH world tour. The two will be bringing their high energy, high vibes, hard bars and Pokemon cards to stages all across the USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and Europe through 2026. Fans will also get to see support from various acts such as Joshua Raw, Chase USA and more as JVB bring their hyperactive music chaos to stages worldwide. The duo have expressed the timeless excitement of being onstage, and the gratitude for performing to an audience who are devoted to true cause: partying together to good, loud music.
“Prepare to dance, bounce, cry, sweat and make friends”, they say.
JVB will be kicking off the UK leg of the tour in May, giving excited fans plenty of time to enjoy the album in its extended glory. Double knot your trainers and pick out your cringiest ironic 2000s slogan T-shirt, and lose yourself and a friend in the world of ‘HYPERYOUTH‘ near you:
