Rusted Rhythms Vol. 36 - Chalky

Chalky has spent the last two years voraciously picking up steam, releasing multiple collaborative albums with Slug Wife's Seppa (including the recently released "Strange Changes"), choice selections of individual works, and contributing a smashing performance for Volume 3 of the Featherbed Sessions. His signature blend of jazz, neo-soul, hip-hop, and peculiar sound design has a way of capturing the attention in a vice-grip; there are few occasions where his music won't slide right into the vibe like a skeleton key, and it's that undeniable vibe interpolation that makes Chalky's music so strikingly sensuous.

For the 36th edition of Rusted Rhythms, we're extremely excited to host an hour long set, featuring a slew of unreleased originals and collaborative tracks amidst some notable fan favorites. From his own sultry guitar lines, to Seppa's braying saxophone leads, to Alicia Kiah's violin harmonies, the journey plays out like an intentional composition from start to finish, showcasing every strength of the Chalky catalog with an equal hand. If you're as smitten with pure groove and tactile songwriting as we are, you'll have just as difficult a time not throwing this one on perpetual loop.
