ABOUT
CHOMPI Club is
joining Chase Bliss!
It’s a long story, and we’ll tell you the whole thing soon. There’s a lot we can’t talk about just yet but it felt important to make this announcement now for a variety of reasons, largely because – if you're here on our website – everything is sold out. This is why: We’re working on combining our worlds, which will take a bit of time.
But we didn’t want to keep it a secret any longer!
Here's what we do know:
Nothing changes for now
All support (questions, repairs, etc.) are still being handled by us – CHOMPI Club – as usual. Our Discord is still active, and we are continuing to work on resources and ways to make the CHOMPI sampler even better.
CHOMPI Club is hanging out with Chase Bliss
If you own and love a CHOMPI, we realize this might seem a little scary. So we wanted to mention that we – Tobias and Chelsea – are joining Chase Bliss in Minneapolis. This isn’t the end of the CHOMPI Club, we’re just doing it together now.
There will be more CHOMPI
We’re working on another run of the CHOMPI sampler, and it will have some firmware surprises (also available for free to existing CHOMPI customers). The next run will be sold through the Chase Bliss website like any other Chase Bliss device. This run will be available later this year, though it’s too soon to say when exactly. And don't worry, we’ll send a newsletter to you all at that time so you don’t miss out.
We'll bring CHOMPI support into the Chase Bliss world soon
Once the next batch of CHOMPI goes up for sale, Chase Bliss will take over support of the device. This means CHOMPI owners will now have international support, and it will be faster and easier than ever to get help. We care a lot about our CHOMPI pals, and this will make your support experience even better.
p.s. This will apply to all existing and future CHOMPI owners.
What is CHOMPI Club?
Our CHOMPI sampler and this entire brand ecosystem is designed to be playful, exploratory, customizable, with a low barrier to entry... So that everyone can enjoy the magical language of sound design!
- This club is designed to support curious creatives: Folks who are generally curious about various forms of artistic expression.
- There’s no wrong way to CHOMPI. We love seeing how people customize their devices and all the amazing sounds they discover along the way. CHOMPI Club is a great platform for connecting and sharing your creations! Be sure to tag us in your CHOMPI adventures! #chompiclub
- Join our CHOMPI pals on Discord for more fun!
We care about making the world a better, more inclusive place. Our goal is to help people interact with sound design as a language - giving them tools and entry points to express themselves. As both a club and a business, we invite you to join us in crafting a culture of kindness, exploration, and playful expression.
We’re passionate about education. We've worked hard to support education initiatives in both our local community & around the world. We're very thankful to have been able support & collaborate with educators and organizations we believe in through:
- Charitable instrument donations
- Hosting sound design workshops
- Sharing curriculum development resources
Our Mission
Opening the door to Self-Expression through Sound Design
Core Values:
A quick peek at our story...
As electronic music enthusiasts, we endeavor to craft inclusive culture and empower new learners, making the world of sound design more accessible to a larger audience.
What started out as a personal journey to explore a more experimental form of music, grew into a community program, an education initiative, and now more than 10 years later has evolved into a unique musical instrument platform.
March 2023
In March of 2023, we launched our Kickstarter campaign for CHOMPI. It unexpectedly went viral and we hit the ground running! That 1st batch of CHOMPI's started shipping out 9 months later in December.
January 2024
CHOMPI Launch + Meeting Chase Bliss
We launched our webshop and started offering CHOMPI worldwide at the beginning of the year. That same month, we happened to meet our pals at Chase Bliss during NAMM.
May 2024
Over the course of just a few months in early 2024, the CHOMPI team and Chase Bliss crew quickly became fast friends. What started out as a low-key convo around our complementary products, evolved into a collaboration for SuperBooth2024… naturally progressing into our fun little partnership for Treasure Island 🌴
March 2025
And now...
We've spent the last year growing our CHOMPI Club community, and being inspired by all of the creative folks we've met along the way. Our friendship with Chase Bliss has continued to grow into an incredible opportunity to join forces in a more permanent way and we couldn't be more excited!
