CD
Ninja Tune imprint Technicolour are pleased to announce Weval’s forthcoming album, CHOROPHOBIA, set for release on Friday 5th September.
Weval (Harm Coolen and Merijn Scholte Albers) are a critically acclaimed, Amsterdam-based duo who have established a solid reputation across the globe for crafting highly textured and sophisticated electronic music.
● The album features vocals from UK-based electronic producer DJ, KILIMANJARO, as well as Nsanshi.
● With their fourth studio album, CHOROPHOBIA, Weval faced their fears.
When the pair stumbled across the phrase chorophobia – which means a fear of dancing – they decided to lean into the irony and get out of their comfort zones.
“Until that point, we had always worked on records with a ‘listening’ mindset…we realised that we’ve been scared of making dance music for all of our journey as producers”.
● The unrestricted, genre-crossing ethos of this record makes room for guilty pleasures, higher BPMs, big drops and an increased number of hi-hats.
