OUT ON NOVEMBER 3rd 2009 on Feelin’Music and Traffic Entertainment.
Much anticipated debut full-length by Swiss beatmaker CHIEF. With “Collabo collection”, Chief delivers a groundbreaking collection of collaborations, made between 2005 and 2009, that showcase different facets of his genius beatmaking. The album features an A-team list of guests including Moka Only, John Robinson, Kissey Asplund, Dynas, Blu, Co$$, Les Nubians, Just Brea, or Abstract Rude to name but a few.
CHIEF was born in Lausanne, Switzerland, where he grew up and still lives today. After showing interest in music at an early age and specifically hip hop since his early teens, Chief began DJing at the age of 14, and by 21 had started to create his own beats. Countless music genres ranging from jazz or neo-soul to hip hop or electronica can be cited as influences on Chief’s music, yet his productions strongly retain their unique identity.
Over the latest years, Chief supplied beats to a wide range of artists, including gold selling R&B female duo LES NUBIANS, ex-Swollen Members leader MOKA ONLY, genius rapper BLU, rising star KISSEY ASPLUND, hip-hop master JOHN ROBINSON, Dj Spinna’s protégé DYNAS, Deep Rooted’s JUST BREA, Jhaz Brown (Sene & Prefyx)… Chief also entirely produced several albums, such as “Are the Groove” with Maryland rapper Kay Dee aka K-Skills, and a couple of albums with Brooklyn-based rapper Sene, including “Garbage Pail Kids”, that was released on Shaman Work.
“Collabo Collection” consists of tracks made over the latest years, in collaboration with various emcees and singers. Although these recordings were made between 2005 and 2009, the majority of them were previously unreleased and can now be heard exclusively on “Collabo Collection”.
From downtempo hybrid beats, to atmospheric urban soundscapes or sophisticated soulful beats, the album showcases different moods while retaining Chief’s unique flavour throughout all twenty-one tracks on “Collabo Collection”.
A must have release, offering a deeper insight into one of today’s beatmaking growing talents, and a chance to own brand new and exclusive material from the hottest and the most promising urban artists of the moment.
