NXNE 13 Music Overview Part 2

Posted 10 years ago by myetvmedia

Finally, Chad Valley is a UK electronic artist who creates vibrant electro-pop. I was first exposed to Chad Valley when he dropped his EP, Equatorial Ultravox, which turned out to one of the best in 2011. His take on pop music was so fresh, and his production style conjured images of sunny days on the beach; many of the tracks have steel drums, which induce warm tropical sensations. Chad Valley may be labeled as a chill wave artist, but his music breaks that label, with more prominent instrumentation rather than simply reverbed shoegazing. Even though I don’t consider his music to be chill wave, he still maintains a vibe that artists placed in that genre carry, such as Washed Out and Toro Y Moi. But like these artists, Chad Valley has broken out of the box that music blogs have placed him in. If you are looking for summer vibe music at NXNE then look no further than Chad Valley.
