Grammy-nominated producer Chilly Gonzales has worked with a wide array of artists. Best known for his production work with Feist (whose album The Reminder earned him a Grammy nomination), Peaches and Jamie Lidell, he has more recently worked with Marina & the Diamonds, thecocknbullkid and Tiga, as well as older collaborations with Bjork and Daft Punk.

Chilly is currently gearing up to release Ivory Tower, his new album produced by German producer Boys Noize. The album is a musical companion to a new feature film of the same name written and produced by Gonzales and  starring Tiga, Peaches and Gonzo himself. The film centers around two champion chess-playing brothers (Gonzales and Tiga) who share a love for the same girl (Peaches).

Check out the video/song “Never Stop (Rap Mix)” from the album below. At first listen I wasn’t too sure about it, but on repetitive listens, it really started to grow on me. His spoken-word raps may throw you off at first, but it works so well over this simple, piano driven beat.

Ivory Tower will be released on September 14th through the Arts & Crafts imprint.

enjoY!
