Christchurch Downbeat Chill Compilation

Christchurch Downbeat Chill Compilation

CHART - Christchurchmusic.org.nz is proud to announce the release of CHARTDISC VOL 3 the Downbeat Chill Edition on 1 May NZ Music Month 2010.

With the generous support and assistance of Double Happy, Becks, Licence to Chill and Creative Communities, CHART has produced a 12 track album of delicious, soulful electronica, from some of the freshest acts the garden city has to offer.

Within this 12 track sampler the listener will experience an eclectic mix of artists. From the sexy dubstep stylings of Truth, Ghost, Switch, Sanchez and Nacoa, through to the stripped back indietronica of Anthesiac and back to the laid back hip hop infused sounds of Electric Wire Hustle, nRt and JDubs, with a slice of smooth funk and jazz influenced beats, courtesy of Carmel Courtney and Max Maxwell and Departure Lounge, to round it all off.

As summer turns to autumn, this timeless collection will take the listener on a seasonal journey through the winter months and back out the other side into summer 2011, as the tracks blend together a sense of warmth, juxtaposed with a feeling of cool summer streams. This album is a must for those looking forward to hitting the slopes this winter.

Otautahi (Christchurch) has without question, always been at the forefront of much of Aotearoa’s electronica movement and a number of the artists showcased here are at the leading edge of fresh musical adventures, in dubstep, jazz and bass and hip hop. As a group dedicated to supporting and furthering the advancement of new music and Christchurch acts, CHART is extremely excited and impressed by the excellent standard of tunes on CHARTDISC VOL 3 the downbeat chill edition, and recommends the listener play on high rotation.

CHARTDISC Volume 3 2010 has been hand-picked to be turned up loud for NZ Music Month 2010 and is for promotional/broadcast only.
