Los Angeles (August 10^th, 2017) – Firepower Records is beyond thrilled to announce the forthcoming release of UK native Chime’s Invincible EP. With a drop date set for August 25^th, this EP is all the firepower you need to properly disrupt any back to school plans you may have had. Chime blasted onto the bass music scene with a string of massively successful sleeper tunes. Then, last year, he dropped an EP with Firepower that quickly became one of our most popular releases of 2016. Chime’s production prowess is immediately recognizable and cannot be disputed. Clever, creative, and always evolving, Chime takes us on an epic musical journey through the bass music soundscape. Invincible is thoroughly engrossing, entertaining, and imaginative, and one play from any of the tunes on the EP will have dance floors across the planet melting in the palms of your hands.

The EP begins with the title track, “Invincible”, and the sweeping euphoric melodies invite the listener into the audio world-building project Chime has initiated. Mixing the heavy synth growls with lighter, pluckier string constructions, the tune swings from full on head-bang sections to the airy soundscapes of windswept vistas and sun dappled horizons like a pendulum. This vibe permeates “The Big Crunch”, a tune he did in collaboration with Teminite. If Chime were a novelist he’d be a master of massive fantasy and sci-fi tomes. Masterfully crafted and infinitely complex story lines take listeners on epic quests through unforgiving sonic environments as well as gorgeous audio overlooks.

“Mindbender” pummels the listener full force, and the drop is like being released into a black hole. All kinds of musical constructions pull and push in opposing forces, and Chime’s penchant for melodic toplines push an emotional awareness on the listener as they lay suspended in space.

Chime and Holly come together in “Chronoception” which features the swaggering lyricism of Lonemoon. The vocal sections bring us back down to earth, placing us squarely into the beauty and horror of the real world. Heavy Hard House sections boost the main stage potential of the tune, while also offering audiences a chance for a singalong before slamming them in the chaos of the drop.

Then there’s “Darknet”, which takes the genre of Riddim to the next logical level. Although Riddim is known for it’s minimal vibe, Chime uses his unwavering commitment to originality and invention to boost this tune with a wall of sound so powerful, you experience the G forces as it pumps through your speakers.

Chime wraps the EP beautifully with “Terraform”, and the whole tune is a love letter to Dubstep. Chime has successfully re-introduced the beauty into the beat, urging us to recognize that music can take us across the universe. But he is also a realist, and as the track drops, he recognizes the beast in us all. The synths pulse through the cranium, causing bouts of involuntary head bangs—a kind of human impulse to seek a catharsis, to express internal rage outwardly. “Terraform” gives us exactly what we need.

Los Angeles (June 26th, 2017) – Firepower Records is excited to announce the forthcoming release of Jarvis’ brand new EP, Rise of the Phoenix, and there’s really no other way to preface your experience with this record than to say you’d better invest in some fireproof pantaloons. Jarvis has emerged as one of the UK’s most formidable forces in bass music, and this EP represents a musical intellect that’s mature, sharp, refined and ready to shine in the raging fires burning at the alters of dance music.

The first track on the EP, “Rise of the Phoenix”, features the vocal wizardry of Born I Music, and his rapid-fire lyricism parallels Jarvis’ frenetic synth structures perfectly. The tune transforms into an instant crowd pleaser, offering club and festival crowds a chance to sing along before throwing themselves into fits of head banging.

Up next is “Rowdy”, and the unique UK Grime tradition of machine gun lyricism continues here, with the polymath Jarvis himself offering up his own lyrical swordsmanship. The MC is a vital part of the UK underground Dubstep phenomenon, offering audiences a more intimate and cerebral way to engage with the music. “Rowdy” sucks you right in and latches on until the beat builds into a massive, pulverizing drop. Jarvis’ storied ability to finesse sounds into an already complex and complicated tune is evidenced here, and if you’ve never conducted a tune to an audience, real or imagined, then you will with “Rowdy”.

“Walk” is an apt title for Jarvis’ next tune. As the beat rolls on, you get the impression he was imagining a massive creature swaggering like a boss down the Boulevard, wrecking anything in its path. The rolling and lolling beat structure imposes an intoxicating urge upon the listener. The tune is extremely headnodic, balancing a subtle, riddim-esque beat with the harder and more aggressive components of a Dubstep banger. A great set opener, or even a Peak Hour scorcher to get audiences riled up.

Jarvis figured out a way to add the 80’s hipster goth noir synth into his tune, “Vibrations”, and it’s perfect. Epic from the outset, the track leads the listener on a musical quest to the drop. But like any quest, there are different components, and Jarvis showcases his expertise with masterfully crafted sections that operate on our souls with a composed tenacity. It’s the kind of production skill that isn’t concerned with quantity, but quality. This track speaks volumes to that ethic.

If a producer is focused they can hook you in like a hypnotist. “Wide Awake” exemplifies this technique. The track begins with airy vocals that summon the listener like sirens from the deep. Jarvis then releases the demons with an insane riddim section simultaneously reminiscent of the underground dub plates spun in dark Surrey warehouses in the 90’s while reestablishing a connection to the big synth attitudes popular in modern Dubstep. But this track is more than that, the siren song the emerges from the depth of this tune is hypnotic, and the balance between massive sound structures with the euphoric vocalized yearnings makes “Wide Awake” an instant festival banger. Get it in your set list now!
