Chicane
Trampolines
Twenty-eight years of scene relevance doesn’t happen without a very special thing: quality. It’s the common denominator in all of Chicane’s work, from the ever-mentioned classics ‘Offshore’, ‘Saltwater’ and ‘Don’t Give Up’ to his newer productions and everything in between. And just like the last four albums that all hit #1 in Dance charts the world over, that too is the case for the U.K. mastermind’s ninth studio album: ‘Trampolines’.Long time fans will know: a Chicane album is exactly what you’d expect, but then not quite. From three club favourites of the past summer — ‘Watching Over Me’, ‘Freefall’ and the much feted ‘Love, Love, Love’ — to tunes likes ‘Day One’ and ‘The Sleepless Night’ that serve up the famed Chicane sound on a different level, ‘Trampolines’ audially channels the emotional highs and lows, allowing listeners to bounce from hands-in-the-air summer fever to tracks that bring happiness and relaxation.‘Trampolines’ is Chicane in optima forma. Ever the quality, but always in a different capacity.
