Chambord – Distant Time
French superstar duo Chambord joins the Gardens of Babylon with an exciting EP ‘Distant Time’, with remix support from Joep Mencke and German Brigante.
Release date: October 29, 2021
Paris-based duo Chambord has patiently raised their game over the last 3 years with releases on high-profile labels such as Sol Selectas and Kindisch, cementing their growth with club and festival sets alongside the likes of Jamie Jones, Blond:ish, and Acid Pauli. This release showcases the warm, energetic sound that is sound-tracking dancefloors across the globe.
Opening the EP
Opening with two original tracks, first-up ‘Distant Time’ is a deep, melodic cut with rubbery bass, shuffling percussion, and an epic vocal performance that echoes in your head. Crescendoing arps and warm keys playfully melt as emotional piano chords take the lead in the main break. ‘red Moon’ opens to a tribal bass and sparse percussion. Growing organically, the piano again adds oodles of emotion as the melancholy plays out in real-time.
The remixes
On remix duties TGOB label mate Joep Mencke returns with a haunting reimagination of ‘Distant Time’ that draws on the raw emotion of the original turning into a deep, warm early floors wonderland. For his remix of ‘Distant Time’ Sol Selectas and Dirtybird regular, German Brigante constructs a filthy, saw-toothed analog remix that the mighty Vangelis would be proud of!
