DATSIK’S FIREPOWER RECORDS
UNLEASHES DEBUT EP’S THIS MONTH FROM
BEAR GRILLZ WITH ‘THE HIGH GRADE’ ON NOVEMBER 19,
FOLLOWED BY DISONATA’S ‘BATTLE DROID’ NOVEMBER 26
Following releases from Terravita (Pirate Bass) and Melamin (Empire) this month, DATSIK’s FIREPOWER RECORDS will close out the second half of November with exciting offerings from two new artists to its roster. BEAR GRILLZ steps out with The High Grade EP on November 19, followed by DISONATA’s Battle Droid EP on November 26.
Proving that opposable thumbs or a basic grasp of the human language are not necessary prerequisites for EDM domination, allow FIREPOWER to introduce BEAR GRILLZ. He’s certainly not your standard grizzly bear. Hailing from Yosemite National Park, GRILLZ‘s story begins on a typical afternoon spent growling at marmots and eating tourists. While busy trying to digest one particularly tricky mountain climber, he discovered amongst his possessions something called a ‘MacBook Pro.’ Fast forward nine months, 6,000 YouTube tutorials and a duck later comes his debut creation, the four-track The High Grade EP.

Although he is new to FIREPOWER, producer, DJ and musician DISONATA aka Karl Szwed from Northampton, U.K picked up on electronic music production in late 2008 after an interest in various electronic music developed when starting college. Still listening to and involved in other styles, he chose to concentrate on making predominantly dubstep in all of its forms. Over the past four years, he’s released both digital and vinyl EP’s on a variety of labels and is working his way up in the scene with support from some of the biggest names in the genre including Skream & Benga, Funtcase, Hatcha, BadKlaat, Requake, Lost and Beezy, Jakes and more. His Battle Droid EP offers up a quartet of bass-driven selections worthy of the most glorious sci-fi sonic odyssey with tracks like “Choose Your Weapon Wisely,” “Conection Failure,” “Last Man Standing” and the title track.
