Signalweiss – Feelings [FRACT008]

Fracture has always tried to support upcoming and interesting newcomers, people they believe in. Chevel is one of them, and in 2014 came his first EP for Fracture under his alias Signalweiss. He returns now for round two. In 4 years, he has managed to establish himself as a prolific and talented artist with a steady stream of records. Chevel is an artist who likes to mix things up, always striking an interesting balance between experimentation and more dance floor oriented tunes. With “Feelings” and “Forbona”, he creates quite abstract but still effective dance music. It is for the club, but it is not mindless bangers. In the hands of Pablo Mateo, “Forbona” turns into a more mental piece of techno. All in all, this new Fracture release provides great tools for the smarter selectors out there.

Chevel – Blurse [SALP003]

Chevel (a.k.a. Dario Tronchin) now makes his LP debut for Stroboscopic Artefacts. Over the course of his young career, Chevel has gained a mastery over several compositional elements: Polaroid-like slow melodic fades, sharp ricocheting beats, and simply making one’s headphones feel like a viable means of physical transportation. Despite Chevel’s keeping the sonic toolkit and overall atmosphere consistent from track to track, there is a rich variety in the emotional affectivity on display here. The net effect is like a dream state that leaves strong impressions even though one can’t pinpoint exactly why they are doing so.
