CHANT ELECTRONIQUE RELEASES DEBUT ALBUM

"CHANT ELECTRONIQUE VOL.1" on RIKA MUZIKA

çhâñt élečtrónïqùeis a collective of producers and singers who come from five countries across two continents. Since first coming together in Portugal in 2019 they've been exploring the potentialities of traditional song and electronics, transitioning the boundaries of their own individual cultural heritage. Their forthcoming debut compilation album aptly titled "çhâñt élečtrónïqùe vol. 1 "consists of music from the singing traditions of Argentina, Portugal and Croatia with production from French, Irish and Croation producers. It is a rumination on ancient polyphonic singing traditions coupled with synth and computer based electronic patterns, all wrapped up into an esoteric sonic experience.

Research was crucial in finding the right sound to represent the array of rhythms associated with each territories' unique musical expression:

"We just went on this huge polyphonic song research trip! Literally and figuratively. We wanted to hear what would happen when these ancient singing traditions meet synthesisers, drum machines and computers. These songs are so robust, they have survived through centuries. They are like mountains and, like mountains, we love and respect them hugely. We wanted to see what they would feel like in an electronic context. It was a lot of fun for us to explore and we're delighted that, just like the mountains, the songs are still standing strong..."
