Influenced by movies such as Hackers, Johnny Mnemonic, Bubblegum Crisis, and other 90s cyberpunk, Blue Stahli started making music in the tracker programs Scream Tracker and Impulse Tracker (which were a big part of the demoscene and used to create videogame soundtracks). The modern tracker, Renoise, continues to be Blue Stahli’s canvas of choice for producing his brand of electronic rock, bass music, French electro and even sophisticated videogame scores in the tradition of the original tracker pioneers.
Beginning in 2009 with his smash single, ULTRAnumb, Blue Stahli continues to blend genres and media having appeared in films and TV shows such as Lights Out and American Horror Story in addition to creating original songs for videogames like Cyberpunk 2077, and appearing in trailers for Destiny 2, and Call of Duty. As an evolving and prolific songwriter, producer, and artist, he has released 11 studio albums including the deadchannel_Trilogy consisting of Quartz, Copper, and Obsidian. He also releases material under his secondary moniker, Sunset Neon.
Blue Stahli’s latest release, Break and Enter, is a collaboration with DJ and fellow producer, Hyper. The track fuses elements of their electronic rock, breakbeat, metal, and cyberpunk styles together in this electro punk rock single.
Ready Aim Fire
Blue Stahli Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Sea of relay high rise in remission
All with a hope and a plan to make it out
Give up the ghost when they try to push it down
Now
Ready, Aim, Fire
Ready, Aim, Fire
Die a thousand deaths in hesitation
Far beyond the spark of inspiration
Close to the soul and away from all the doubt
Live what is known when you hear the softest sound
Say
Ready, Aim, Fire
Ready, Aim, Fire
Ready, Aim, Fire
Ready, Aim, Fire
Ready, Aim, Fire
Ready, Aim, Fire
Ready, Aim, Fire
Fire
Ready, Aim, Fire
Fire
Fire
The lyrics of Blue Stahli's song "Ready Aim Fire" seem to be about the struggle to achieve success and the fear of failure. The first two lines suggest that there are millions of people with big ambitions who are working hard to achieve their goals, but they are also struggling with the pressure and challenges that come with it. The phrase "sea of relay high rise in remission" could represent the competitive environment of skyscrapers where everyone is trying to climb higher and higher but also experiencing moments of restlessness and uncertainty.
The next lines suggest that despite the difficulties, people hold onto hope and continue to pursue their dreams. However, when faced with obstacles and setbacks, they start to doubt themselves and their abilities. The lines "give up the ghost when they try to push it down" could represent the feeling of losing hope when one is constantly being pushed back and forth.
The chorus "Ready, Aim, Fire" seems to be a call to action, encouraging people to take charge and pursue their goals without fear or hesitation. The lyrics suggest that success comes from taking action and being proactive, rather than being held back by doubt or hesitation. The repetition of the chorus emphasizes the urgency and importance of taking action.

I love how non egotistical you are Bret. You spend your time replying to the people that support you. Not only does your unique sound separate you from the rest of the artists out there, but the fact that you're a regular guy with an good heart will put you beyond. Keep pumping out these tracks man!
