| Chimp Beams "Vbrato"
Chimp Beams is an electronic jazz dub trio formed in 2001 by three Japanese, living in Brooklyn. Their music concept is dark dance music. They express their psychedelic but laidback sounds by using vibraphone, guitar, and echo on top of break beats. They play a mix of dub, jazz, techno, rare groove, soul, funk, and ethnic music, all with their own personal interpretation. At their live performances, they freely improvise and twist even their own songs. Having been greatly influenced by artists such as Jah Shaka, Massive Attack, and Basic Channel, they have successfully created their original dark sound style by using various instruments together with samplers. Their first album "Vibrato" has a number of elaborately arranged high quality songs: from jazzy and chill out to aggressive. With a new style of music where dark break beats melt into musical instruments, Chimp Beams has exploded/come into/arrived onto the music scene with impulse and too much praise. |
