Fractal

Fractal is the stage name of Brady Wiggins. He is an American electronic music producer and DJ based in Baltimore, Maryland. His work sits primarily in chillstep, drumstep and dubstep, with a catalog that includes a 2013 Monstercat debut single and a full-length LP released in 2015.

Fractal made his label debut on Monstercat in 2013 with the single "Halcyon," a collaboration with Au5. He followed that early label exposure with multiple EPs and singles on Monstercat and released the LP Gaia in 2015. He has worked frequently with Au5 and other electronic artists, and he has toured as Enrique Iglesias’s official DJ. Vocal contributions from his sister Delaney, who records as Syrin, appear on several of his tracks.

Musically, Fractal combines the melodic focus of chillstep with dubstep’s low-end and the syncopated momentum of drumstep. On releases such as "Halcyon" and selections from Gaia you can hear layered, reverberant pads set against tight, punchy percussion. Tempos shift between half-time dubstep feels and faster drumstep pulse; the arrangements regularly place detailed drum programming and edited breaks over sustained harmonic beds.

As a producer, Fractal emphasizes clarity in low frequencies and layered synthesis. His productions show clear sub-bass separation beneath midrange saw and supersaw stacks, use of sidechain compression to create rhythmic movement, and vocal processing (pitch-shifting and chopping) when Syrin or other vocalists are featured. He also favors atmospheric elements—long reverb tails, ambient risers and textural pads—to give melodic sections space before bass drops or drumstep transitions.

Fractal’s career highlights are concrete. The 2013 Monstercat release "Halcyon" (with Au5) marked his first major-label appearance. He released the full-length Gaia in 2015. Across his Monstercat singles and EPs he maintained a pattern of collaboration, most notably with Au5, and of featuring Syrin’s vocals on multiple tracks. Outside the label releases, he extended his role as a live performer by serving as Enrique Iglesias’s official DJ on tour, a credential that complements his studio work.

Collaborations and close creative ties are a recurring thread in Fractal’s output. His repeated work with Au5 is both a documented collaboration (the 2013 "Halcyon" single) and an ongoing reference point for his melodic sound design. Syrin (Delaney Wiggins) is another named collaborator who provides vocal parts on several Fractal tracks.
