Chams Shares Mind-Bending Cut From New EP
‘Lettre d’Amort’ will drop via Abîme on September 28.
Later this month, Chams will release Lettre d’Amort via Abîme.
The EP will be the debut release for the Paris-based label and is deeply personal release inspired by a solo journey Chams took across the French Alps a few years ago. The journey instilled in Chams a view that the Alps is a place of beauty and fear, and that nature should be admired from a wary distance. Since then, Chams has attempted to capture and translate this into his work, and Lettre d’Amort is the first released piece.
Musically, the EP is a tense-yet-beautiful collection of deconstructed beats that reference all manner of bass styles, grime, and more experimental pastures. Across the six tracks, bright, translucent melodies compete with dark undertones, creating a haunting bed of sonics.
