Moments! Not just a music company but also a series of events under the same name, releasing only outstanding works by musicians performing at those events. When the award-winning producer, and an internationally acclaimed DJ, Guy Mantzur, started a new enterprise, Moments, he had high goals for a new endeavor. Since then, every label’s release has pushed the envelope.

According to numerology, eleven is the first of the Master numbers, and the eleventh release is nothing short of pure mastery. Tel-Aviv-based Chico Shuella, better known as Chicola, is one of the jewels in the crown of the Israeli DJ scene. With a couple of decades under his belt and a stellar reputation, his debut brings a special touch to the label’s exciting catalog.

Chico’s debut on the label brings a three-track concept that takes the audience on a twenty-minute journey. The opener, ‘Dear Kobe’, a collaboration with Yoav, is a masterful work based on abstract emotions and spacy synth work. The second track, ‘Every Pain Got A Name’, speeds up the tempo and reaches for the psychedelic atmosphere breaking the rules of the genre. The closing song is an ambient version of the middle piece, focusing on narrative lyrics and grandiosity.

You can now listen to the full premiere of ‘Dear Kobe’ exclusively on When We Dip. Enjoy!
