Chrome Sparks (aka Jeremy Malvin) knows how to make his tracks shine. His eponymous debut album, released on Counter Records (a Ninja Tune imprint), boasts a sparkling sound: a euphony of hip-hop, house and bright-beaming synthwork. The record is the culmination of several years spent between Malvin’s Navy Yard, Brooklyn studio and a secluded cabin in upstate New York. He spent a month there to escape the distractions of the city, and to distill his process during what became an intensive period of creativity. A far cry from supporting Diplo’s Major Lazer at the recent Mad Decent Block Party in Islamabad (Pakistan). The album itself features collaborations with Australian duo Kllo (Ghostly), Body Language’s Angelica Bess (who’s previously collaborated with Machinedrum) - Their voices reimagined through Malvin’s brightly daubed kaleidoscope of influences.
His debut long-player arrives after a series of much-tipped singles and EPs. After self-released, breakout track ‘Marijuana’, his music landed on Australia’s Future Classic label (Flume, Chet Faker, amongst others). He’s since released three singles for Counter Records (home to ODESZA and Maribou State), including 2016’s ‘All Or Nothing’ (also featuring Bess), which was supported both sides of the Atlantic by Jason Bentley on KCRW and Annie Mac on BBC Radio 1. Support for his music has also come from Pitchfork, FADER, Dancing Astronaut and Indie Shuffle.
