Chris Brown, a.k.a. Chris Firenze, has been producing electronic music in various forms since 2002. His first influences were primarily that of techstep and drum and bass artists such as Tech Itch and Dieselboy, and bits of Psytrance and Techno. His tastes evolved over the years, bringing in Breaks and Tech-Funk, and later Electro House and Minimal Techno. The one consistent factor that drew him to these artists is apparent in his own current productions as well, and he considers it the most important aspect of a good song: Deep Rockin' Bass.

In 2007, Chris Firenze co-founded Akashik Records.  The label had a string of small releases and went into hiding around the end of 2008; re-emerging early this year.  He has also released tracks on Portland label Subsensory Recordings and Manifest NW, and participated in the Bleepsequence collaboration effort, and many of his new solo efforts are being released through the Akashik imprint.
