Brunn has amassed over 227,000 followers on SoundCloud and is increasing rapidly, where he has released many tracks, beginning with a rock-pop piece entitled "Wake Me Up", and recently, his EP 'Throwback'. He also has exceeded 276,000 subscribers on YouTube where he uploads his songs, monologues and tutorials on music production.

Prior to producing under the alias "Virtual Riot", Brunn produced ambient dubstep and future garage music under another alias known as Your Personal Tranquilizer. He stated in a livestream on his Twitch.tv account that his works under that alias are "somewhere on YouTube", that being the YouTube channel "stollentroll32" featuring Brunn playing piano, and making domino videos.

On February 21 of 2017, Brunn teased his new EP, Throwback, via his official YouTube page. Unlike his Chemistry EP, which released in 2016, Throwback appears to be a literal homage/tribute to his earlier works, straying away from the riddim style and containing tracks that are reminiscent of genres he previously produced within such as melodic dubstep, electro, and drum and bass. The album was fully released for purchase on streaming platforms on February 27.
