Posted: Mon, 24/11/08 08:45

Yeah, out now :
Yorgl – Stunn ep
Catalogue Number: CWZ012

Stunn-ep is the beauty of calculation and in the meantime its feelings are deep and warm.
Sometime Yorgl is happy, sometime is sad, always his music is smart and wonder.
Like opposing forces are bound together, the mood of this release will bring you in the world of small things and the biggest things, the pleasure and the pain, analogue and digital sounds.
A must and a very good new entry in the land of IDM and experimental beatnologism.
Here, on mars, we are still dancing and the music never ends...woooowwww!

Chew-Z Netlabel announce today a new release available on our website.

The number 11 of our catalogue: an ep by Riga - CWZ011

This is the first release from Riga, a trio from Milan, Italy: their music is an investigation into the human being in today days. Their vision is about a world where people lives their lifes like robots.
Riga interact their musical taste with strong visions from our reality.
The music is a fascinating old school deep synth electronica, used with clever beats and evocative noises and drones. The compositions are brilliant, Riga uses crescendos in a way similar to a post-rock band does.
Mutant Fish is the author of their visuals used on live performances.
The ep is available here in digital download for free, but you can get a copy of the compact disc that included also the video tracks by Mutant Fish.
This work represent on a digital format, what a Riga & Mutant Fish live performance is.

Out now: Fighting back the tears

Posted: Fri, 11/07/08 00:00


Welcome back brothers and sisters !
This is the new website for Chew-Z.

We have a main new to announce today:
The number 10 of our catalogue, Fighting Back The Tears by Simone Pelliconi.
This is the first album for Simone on Chew-Z and it is the first episode on a series of releases called Stock Options: a journey in retrieving and re-editing old songs, raw sounds in a new way.
Fighting Back The Tears is our hit for the summer: happy IDM and some acid trips :)
This album is available in download through our website on mp3 format (320kps) in zip archive; on the release page you can listen all the tracks directly.

Some notes about this artist.
Simone Pelliconi has started his artistic adventure in the 90's as singer and drum machine programmer into a new wave – rock band, when they splitted up, he continued his personal passion into programming and sampling.
In 1997, he founded with Oscuro Pier Nicola, the Amalsunta project, that released about twelve album, nine of these had been released on www.mp3.com.
From 2000 he started a new personal project switching from midi programming to the audio editing and audio tracking and then on the creation of sounds trough mathematics played by soft-synths, entering definitely on Computer Music.
From 2006, he started publishing his compositions and music collaborations on his blog, and also performing live.
http://www.simonepelliconi.net

The summer will be hot, and we know that Fighting Back The Tears will be your drug against humidity, sun and bugz !

Our artists and us are concentrated on the next updates:
We'll release the first EP for Riga (an audio/visual project from Milan): they kicks live and also in studio!
Then, Mr. Yorgl will publish his album, he's a french producer with a great taste for broken beats.

Take care.
Chew-Z Staff.
