Backward Loops II – Non Series 18

The latest release on Psyk’s label is a heads-down affair from Italian producer Chevel. In its most extreme form, this takes the form of «2020», where high-pitched squeals and shrieks are set to a tough, pacey rhythm. However, the more rewarding tracks see Chevel explore a more subtle approach. «Noflit» is based on contrasts with a combination of a rubbery bass and tough, distorted drums. «Summer» just as understated with a mysterious synth line cloaking the arrangement’s percussive slivers. However, Chevel also understands the demands of the dance floor and «Detrimental», with its blip, bleeps and tough beats is sure to cause mayhem whenever it’s dropped.
