Chits

US producer chits has recently released some fascinating, beautiful and eclectic music. We'll have a quick look at a few of his/her most recent and engaging tunes.

'O U Mad' sounds like the lovechild of Actress and RZA. The ominous, stepping swagger of the melody, eerie vocal samples, death synths and jittery drums conglomerate into a brooding slow jam. Had Herzog not used opera and Popol Vuh to score Fitzcarraldo, he might have chosen something like this.

'Hustlerz Ambition' is altogether a different beast. This could easily have beeen released on 100% Silk, with its buzzing warped synth lines and Chicago indebted drum work. Halfway through, however, it takes a turn for the jukey and mellow, hence altering the overall effect from deep and bumping to serene and tranquil.

'Stay Schemin' takes on a gangsta juke tip with epic intentions. We are met with warm synth tones and a space age melody, before being dropped into a black hole of firm bass and a skittering wood block. Brilliant synths break through and the song takes flight with a flange-ing bass, bleary-eyed vocal sample and bumping footwork riddims.
