🔥 2026 ALBUM RELEASE BIO 🔥

CHESTER DE FOLLIFOOT — “AFTERSHOCK PARADIGM”

Produced by Naz X Gen

Engineered by HMSxSTAR

Hardstyle • 2026

“Aftershock Paradigm” marks Chester De Follifoot’s most ambitious hardstyle project to date — a full‑scale sonic rupture built for the 2026 rave circuit. The album dives into the idea of aftershocks: the emotional, physical, and cultural tremors that follow moments of impact. Every track hits like a seismic event, reshaping the landscape as it moves.

Naz X Gen take the production helm with a hybrid style that blends rawstyle aggression, euphoric storytelling, and cyber‑industrial textures. Their approach is sharp, modern, and unapologetically experimental — the perfect match for Chester’s evolving sound.

HMSxSTAR brings the entire project into razor focus with precision engineering:

• Titan‑grade kick design
• Wide cinematic atmospheres
• Crystal‑clean high‑energy transitions
• A cohesive, club‑ready master across the album

The result is a hardstyle record that feels engineered for the future.

🎧 Album Concept

“Aftershock Paradigm” explores the moment after the drop — the emotional resonance, the adrenaline echo, the shift in perspective. It’s built around three pillars:

• Impact — heavy kicks, distorted basslines, rawstyle screeches
• Emotion — melodic leads, orchestral breaks, euphoric builds
• Reconstruction — glitch‑core textures, cyberpunk atmospheres, rhythmic fractures

It’s a journey through destruction and rebirth, told through hardstyle.

Naz X Gen: “We wanted to push Chester’s sound into a new dimension. Hardstyle evolves, and this album evolves with it.”

HMSxSTAR: “Every frequency, every kick, every layer — engineered to hit with clarity and force.”
