Chook feat Monophona - The Thread by Full Force recordings published on 2015-09-27T19:18:00Z Chook is back after a 4 year sabbatical from drum 'n' bass. Those who were around to witness his output during the mid to late 2000's know just how cutting-edge his sound was and still is today. Chook has been busy producing his live band Monophona, who could be stylistically described as a modern day Portishead fused with techno and trip hop beats as well as live instrumentation and morphed out bass lines. "The Thread" kicks off with epic pads and features the haunting and spine tingling vocal talents of Monophona's Caludine Muno. Contorted fx layers weave their way in and out of this pristine vox line in complimentary fashion, impactfully adding depth and intensity during the intro. Massive drums thrash away atop of a highly modulated and turbulently grooving bass line at the drop. Subtle stab and midrange elements contribute progression and harmoniously glorify this incredibly catchy groove until the breakdown arrives, where filtered mids accompany the vocal line leading up to the second drop. As expected, Chook has delivered an absolute monster of a comeback tune… one that gets stuck in your head and one that you will surely be reaching for in months and years to come.

Good work 2015-09-30T17:40:20Z Comment by NfSoP Too many days without your productions, but now - Full Happiness!!! 2015-09-29T21:18:04Z Comment by Hugh Hefner Crazy cool work on this track! We really love the vocal, it feels foreboding and mysterious with all the FX work behind it coming into the build. There is a great sense of atmosphere and spacing in this track that feels very professionally designed and arranged. While we liked what we heard, we felt that the progression in the tune was a bit erratic, swapping from builds and breaks to drops with minimal FX work signaling a change and transitions feeling drastic, too obvious. The sound design is professional sounding but the mix down feels a bit rushed, perhaps too heavy in the mids and a bit unclear overall. A more professional mix down and master will really clean this track up and have it sounding pro. Overall, great work here! Keep sending us tunes! 2015-09-29T20:27:32Z Comment by Knox (dnb) Proper, solid work! 2015-09-29T19:41:57Z Comment by Drob Lept1k unlike many others, this man is a real musician...rspkt!!! 2015-09-29T15:41:05Z Comment by .HammerZz.
