about

[metadata_records] is an imprint for Dark Arps. In this debut EP, Jon returns to his formative nuskool breaks influences with three groove-laden chin-strokers: 'Broken Promise', 'Grow Op' and 'Plead’. Expect rubbery bass, percussive boom-bap, and cheeky melodic interjections as we romp through these three electro-charged funkhausers. The title track ‘Broken Promise’ hits you with the one- two chord stabs right off the bat and just doesn’t stop. ‘Grow Op’ is low-rolling with that Seinfeld slap, and ‘Plead’ takes us on a perilous journey through pretentious bassline progressions... buckle up! For more, visit www.metadatarecords.com

After nearly 25 years exploring a wide gamut of technical and artistic disciplines in electronic music, design, animation and production, Jon Bierman aka Dark Arps is proud to present [metadata_records], a fusion of audio/visual intent. It consolidates, providing a platform for uninhibited expression, allowing complete control over every aspect of the aesthetic and delivery - allowing the work to flow, in his own time, on his own terms, with authenticity. ‘Broken Promise EP’ is an apt introduction, a trio of engaging tunes, exploring a fusion of progressive techno and broken beat, every piece a journey, shuffling dancefloors and living room raves alike into territories unknown.

Dark Arps Vancouver, British Columbia

Dynamic, emotively powerful, deep and progressive, Dark Arps builds contrasting vibes of tension and optimism with crescendos of visceral energy in his music. A blend of percussive broken beat and techno underpins dark, razor-sharp melodies with progressive hooks and basslines. He delivers a sound that is simultaneously ominous and uplifting, reflecting the disturbing turbulence of our time. ... more
