Electronic music's explosion in popularity in the last few years has paved the way for the rise of collectives across the United States. Soulection, WEDIDIT, and Moving Castle have all cemented their reputations as collectives with a strong eye towards talent and an even stronger ability for tastemaking. Chet Porter may be the LA-based Moving Castle's only Canadian representative, but that hasn't stopped him from being one of the collective's strongest members. The Toronto-based producer dropped “tbh ily” last weekend as an early Valentine's Day weekend present, and it's absolutely stunning. The track opens with soft percussion arrangements layered underneath a gorgeous piano melody, which Make Up the meat of the track. As the song continues, Chet continues to take us on an aural journey with subtle wind chime effects, the soothing sound of running water, and birds chirping before slowly fading out into the day. Check it out below, and keep an eye out for Chet Porter this year.
