Comprised of Chelsey Hice (vocals) and multi-instrumentalist and producer Brent “The Noise” Watters, the Bay Area-based duo Chelsey and the Noise specialize in a murky and sensual electro pop sound that draws from dream pop, electrogaze and other genres as you’ll hear on their latest single off their Losing Landscapes EP, the glitchy, boom-bap beat driven “Edge of Infinity.” Sonically speaking Hice’s sultry yet ethereal come-hither vocals are paired with a dense production featuring the aforementioned boom-bap beats, cascades of stuttering and fluttering synths — and interestingly enough the duo’s sound reminds me quite a bit of New York-based sibling duo Zambri as it possesses a menacing tone just under the surface.
