“It’s time I start putting out my music… a lot of it. I’ve got some surprises for you and I’m very much excited to show you what’s to come.” This is probably our favourite sentence to hear as music lovers.
The latest to build hope and anticipation within his fans is none other than Chee, who returns today with the boundary-pushing ‘Monsterfy.’ Following up on his versatile Read Once Then Destroy EP and brain-melting dual single ‘Sunken City of R’lyeh/Domino Effect‘ from earlier this year, the promise of more Chee has us itching with excitement. A true musical genius who refuses to conform to what is popular or in style, the South African-born, Philadelphia-based producer is among the best at pushing his signature sound to unparalleled limits. With ‘Monsterfy,’ Chee does exactly that once again.
A familiar soundscape accented by a foreboding aura and stabs of static noise draw one’s attention from the get-go, as an ominous melody hints at further destruction. Wasting no time, Chee catapults the track into a section of menacing halftime insanity, where flawless, perplexing sound design will leave you in awe. As per usual with Chee tracks, the arrangement and flow of the sounds are unusually off-kilter, yet it is evident that everything about the chaos is mechanical and meticulous.
