Yingtuitive, AKA Singapore-raised, London-dwelling musician Hannah Chia, releases her debut album Letters To Self, recalling the bucolic electronics of early Four Tet while exploring ambient and club sounds.
Tracks like Pandan offer poignant ambient jazz reminiscent of Matthew Bourne and Ryuichi Sakamoto, while Blue creates a thick, aqueous reverb and Do U Forget a Feeling? features crisp beats melded with reverb.
The album encapsulates a contemplative state of living between two places, capturing the restlessness of varied beauty without establishing a permanent life, embodying dream logic from garden to mall to club.
Chia's music invites listeners to enjoy distinct melodic effects echoing grime productions, best appreciated on high-quality sound systems, particularly evident in the rhythmic track Exhibition.
