Chimes

Dance pop duo CHIMES (Jamie Draper and Paul Aiden) recently released their anticipated, Ninety Four EP, a collection of genre bending tracks that integrate elements of electronic, R&B and pop with an undeniable commercial appeal.

Over the past year, the pair have steadily been establishing an online presence, garnering regular support from BBC Introducing. Aside from singles releases, Ninety Four is their first body of work for CHIMES and showcases Jamie and Paul’s penchant for creating infectious dance pop tunes.

We asked CHIMES to put together some of their current favorite tracks including Little Dragon and HONNE. Stream it below!

Little Dragon – Twice

“We both have an eclectic taste in music but we find common ground in the abstract. This and the next track both speak wonders in style and character. We’ve sat back in the studio listening to these to ‘reset.'”

Radiohead – Burn The Witch

“Everything in this has its rightful place. Nothing is wasted. It takes several listens to appreciate it.”

Washed Out – Feel It All Around

“Love this one, really sets a scene which we try to do with our music. It’s an instant vibe, no prep needed.”

Galantis – Runaway (U & I)

“When this first came out it was a smash hit. It was a really inspiring track in terms of its writing. Great one to get pumped to on the way to the studio or show.”

Frank Ocean – Swim Good

“Paul is one to really channel inspiration from this, I like it too but Paul’s the leader on this.”

HONNE & Izzy Bizu – Someone That Loves You

“Another studio chill/break track that really helps reset your ears. It’s one of the smoothest tracks I know and love.”
