Los Angeles-based bass producer JEANIE is reinforcing her recent single “Bulletproof,” featuring rapper BLUPILL, with a stacked remix pack on Bassrush Records.

The EP features fresh takes on her drill-infused dubstep banger from some of the bass scenes’ hottest rising talents, including CHYL, VRG, Eyezic, and Rebel Scum, as well as a VIP from JEANIE to round out the release.

Kicking off the project in style is JEANIE’s VIP. The tweaked melody bears shades of the original while enhancing the hypnotic allure. BLUPILL’s in-your-face vocals bring a fight-ready energy over the rumbling bass. The drops possess all the aggressiveness of the original, while injecting some extra swing and wonkiness. This one is built for headbangers, so keep your neck braces on deck.

JEANIE expands on her VIP saying, “‘Bulletproof’ has been a staple in my sets throughout the past year, so I wanted to switch it up with a wonkier version. It’s been getting a crazy reaction live, and I’m stoked to be putting it out alongside some incredible remixes.”

CHYL flips the script with finesse on her remix. Combining an ominous introduction with background screams and gritty vocals, resulting in a horror film-inspired offering. Kicking up the pace with rapid percussion and vocal loops, it builds into a high-energy speed house drop.

CHYL pushes the pedal to the metal with a high-tempo drift through a futuristic wonderland. The slowed breakdown serves to amplify the intensity when the track is shifted back into high gear for the finale.

On her remix, CHYL shares: “JEANIE’s original Bulletproof track was full of energy and grit, so I wanted to match that energy but also create something a bit more fun and bouncy, which eventually evolved to the final version of this remix. Really excited for everyone to hear this 150 bpm speed house remix!”

Taking a more laidback approach in the opening, VRG’s rework allows BLUPILL’s vocals to serve as the focal point up front, as he gradually builds the backing around lyrics. As the vocals are bent to oblivion, VRG welcomes us to an industrial wasteland that’s riddled with drilling drops and a cacophony of filthy layers. He truly lets this one bang for a sound that simulates all-out destruction.

VRG shares his excitement: “‘Bulletproof’ is one of my own personal favorite releases from JEANIE. The monstrous drops and the street hard vocals from BLUPILL were screaming at me to give it my own twist. When her team communicated with my team that she wanted me to do a remix, I was fully on board and ended up making one of the most aggressive, angry, and rage-fueled remixes I have made in a while. Was truly a blessing to be able to do this remix, and an even bigger blessing to keep working with a label like Bassrush.”

Washington, D.C.’s Eyezic takes “Bulletproof” into a new realm with his take. The first drop fuses walls of bass with a nasty off-kilter bounce and pulsing laser-like synths. BLUPILL’s mosh-pit-inducing verse recaptures the spotlight in the break before upping the ante for the final drop. Mind-melting sound design melds with devastating bass for a wildly experimental treatment that’s assured to command replays.

Eyezic speaks on how the remix came to be: “I remember in early 2021 when I had first met JEANIE and did a flip to one of her records. I was so stoked on approaching the ‘bass’ sound as I’ve never really entered that realm before. A year goes by and I’ve been given the opportunity to do an official remix, this time for a heavy-hitting record ‘Bulletproof.’ When writing this project, I really didn’t know where to start other than the initial beat from the intro. Afterwards, I immediately tackled the drop and went for a ‘familiar’ yet twist on the drop that resonated with what I would have envisioned it. From interesting sound design, to automations, this track was truly a lot of fun to work on, and I can’t thank JEANIE and the team for having me!”

Rounding out the release, Rebel Scum ups the tempo for his rendition. Rapid percussion is layered over BLUEPILL’s rage-fueled vocals and dark undertones. The drum and bass direction is aggressive and unstoppable. From the halftime switch-up to the no-holds-barred finale, Rebel Scum’s rework is relentless and raucous in all the right ways.

“When I was asked to do a remix for this track, I immediately said yes based on how rowdy the original is,” explains Rebel Scum. “I tried to take that energy and make it my own in hectic drum and bass form.”
