British singer-songwriter and producer Chantitown released her debut EP Cause And The Cure independently. The EP was co-produced and co-composed with Jim Hustwit (Universal Music, National Theatre, Almeida Theatre) who also holds credit as People’s Music Award Film and Music Composer. Following the introductory single and title-track from the upcoming EP, Chantitown’s latest, “Mother Of Sun” was mixed and mastered by reputable engineer Chris Coulter, who has worked with well-respected artists such as Dan Austin (Ocean Size, Pixies), Scott Harding (Wu Tang Clan, New Kingdom), Pip Williams (Status Quo), Rupert Christie (U2 / Green Day) and more. The single also includes notable percussionist Paul Clarvis who has worked with musical greats such as Mick Jagger, Nina Simone, Stevie Wonder and Sir Paul McCartney, to name but a few.
With an extraordinary desire to create timeless material that knows no boundaries or limitations, London-born Chantitown combines empowering and inspiring music with her genuinely gifted lyricism and storytelling abilities, a skill she developed whilst writing expressive poetry at the early age of only thirteen. Chantitown takes inspiration from iconic singer-songwriters such as Joni Mitchell, Carol King and Tracy Chapman, to the electronic and trip-hop sounds of Massive Attack, Portishead and MGMT and, stylistically, her sound can be compared to current artists Lorde, Bat For Lashes, Aurora and Lamb.
Peer Kusiv’s remix of Chantitown’s ‘Cause And The Cure’ is a guitar driven deep-house track ready made for any beach party or sundown cocktails. Kusiv perfectly incorporates his signature acoustic influences, keeping the singer-songwriter aesthetic of Chantitown at its core, while still maintaining a steady beat from start to finish, only allowing a break every now and then to let the listener completely succumb to his layered production. Immersed in intricate harmonies and tantalizing soundscapes, Peer Kusiv transformation of ‘Cause and the Cure’ aims to keep your feet moving with the use of deep bass and complex, yet subtle, vocal melodies.
