Factor Chandelier takes us on a trance-wave electronic indie train on "New View"













AP Track Review

Factor Chandelier's latest electronic indie offering New View feels at first like a trance-wave train, the industrial sounds forming a percussive engine for organic sounding deep flute sounds. As a big bass bottom beat stomps in with celebratory synth horns in tow and swelling waves you feel the track float. It is a mix of electronic indie, hip hop and psychedelia that ends much too quickly.

He is known for continuously dropping top-notch product out of Saskatoon since the late ‘90s. He is the founder, owner and operator of Side Road Records (2001), releasing over 30 professional albums between Side Road & Fake Four inc. Factor's music has garnered international distribution and he has received positive critical acclaim by way of magazine and website reviews as well as receiving radio play on college/community radio all over Canada, the US and Japan. His collaborative album "Wildlif3" with Def 3 won the WCMA for best hip hop recording in 2015.

Factor Chandelier's production combines smooth melodic soundscapes and live instruments over immaculate drums put together seemingly effortlessly to create a distinct sound of his own and it's for this reason he's consistently banging out one-of-a-kind beats as one of underground music’s favorite new school producers. Factor is always trying to create original, thought-provoking music that pushes the envelope of traditional hip-hop and has drawn significant attention to this Canadian artist. Hailing from the prairies, this Saskatoon, SK born and raised musician continues to make waves with his innovative sound.
