Buzz Music // Portraying Larger Than Life Sound, Apollo Takes One Large Step For Chase Stephen

"Multi-talented artist, music producer, and founder of Le Steez, Chase Stephen LeBrun was born in the Finger Lakes region of upstate New York. This is where his musical journey began. Learning piano before his love for Rock music, it took Chase Stephen beating Guitar Hero II on expert mode to pick up a guitar and start blast off on his music-making journey.

Chase Stephen’s music projects are currently geared towards the Lo-fi community. He continues to work with and support other artists in various genres through his independent label and brand Le Steez. His interest in Chillhop music has led him to a unique and creative style of having Lo-fi beats backup lush, jazzy, and melodic guitar hooks throughout his current music.

Chase Stephen’s latest single, “Apollo,” accurately takes off in a true outer-worldly fashion. “Apollo” submerges the listener in a theatre-like surround sound ambiance with the production elements coming at you from every angle possible. You are taken on a complete sonic voyage as you experience a well-rounded presentation through real-life instruments and versatile midi samples.

Accompanying the glorious instrumental recording of “Apollo,” we have cosmic visuals, quite literally, to offer up a full experience for your senses. Collaborating with Humble Radio for the music video, the main theme of an astronaut traveling the solar system in search of his father lost to space is captured. Various shots from the film Ad Astra starring Brad Pitt can be scenes as we pan from multiple shots of the featured film. A top-quality Blockbuster production rate showcases astronauts, rocket ships, and the galaxy as we may or may not know it. The visuals perfectly pair with this composition like a fine wine. The passion that is exuded through this piece has you anticipating what is next to come in the instrumentation as you hang on to every note heard. The decadent guitar riffs strummed throughout “Apollo” have a mind of their own as they remain the centerpiece encouraging you to get lost in the music Chase Stephen intricately crafts."
