Tre3s

VINYL FORMAT. In 2010 Chikita Violenta traveled to Toronto, Canada to Dave Newfeld's studio to record Tre3s, their most daring and purposeful work to date. On this new production the sonic textures, the vocal harmonies and the organic incidental sounds play a very prominent role, being the catalyst of memorable tunes. What can we hear on this album? We can hear Chikita Violenta in their purest state; we can hear a band that keeps betting on the creation of a genuine sound. Far from repeating themselves, they have taken the less explored road - experimenting with different recording techniques to deliver eleven songs that go from noise, to indie-pop, to experimental grounds with no difficulty. Raw gigantic drums intertwine with heavily layered guitars and processed effects, always keeping a melodic sense and consistency, creating a colorful painting with many textures. Tre3s was recorded on three sporadic trips to Canada throughout a year and a half (2009-2010). Many recognized musicians from the Canadian indie scene collaborate: Wintersleep's Loel Campbell, The Most Serene Republic's Tony Nesbitt-Larking and Broken Social Scene's Lisa Lobsinger. Dave Newfeld himself has a very active role on the record, besides producing and mixing it.
