Kerri Chandler’s Kaoz Theory returns this October with a various artists package featuring Ben Rau, Dennis Quin, Stephane Ghenacia and Tommy Bones.

Over the years Kerri Chandler’s Kaoz Theory has cemented itself as a go to for all things groove-driven in the House world, releasing material from the likes of DJ Sneak, Seb Zito, DJ Deep, Jamie Jones and most recently DJ W!ld. Here the label welcomes an array of artists for a new various artist package.

Inkal/Meta’s Ben Rau leads with ‘Be Who You Want To Be’, laying down choppy bass stabs and crunchy drums alongside sweeping pad lines and vocal chants. Dennis Quin’s ‘Rubb’ follows next, taking a more raw approach courtesy of heavily swung percussion, fidgety resonant synths and intricately processed vocal hooks.

Stephane follows next with ‘Baraka’, stripping things back to a heady shuffled rhythm, chopped voices and his signature snaking bass groove before Tommy Bones’ Papi Huesos’ rounds out the package, shifting focus over to more classic house tropes with bright piano chords, an acid tinged bass hook and airy string melodies.

Organised Kaoz is set for release this October.
