Cloudchord specializes in augmenting musical possibility. Derek VanScoten is the producer, guitarist and Emmy-winning musician behind Cloudchord. His remarkable technical skills on the guitar give a refreshing take on atmospheric dance music, solidifying Cloudchord’s place in the world of psychedelic chillhop beats.
For those who enjoy the ethereal sounds of Bonobo, the basslines of FKJ, & slick neo guitar strums, Cloudchord curates a vibe of something yet untouched. His recent works, “Refresh” and “Attunement,” transport you to a New York City rooftop, where grooves and sunshine wrap around you in the midst of a hazy summer. In his collaboration with Soul Food Horns, “Moon Fortune,” Cloudchord brings feel-good, lo-fi house to center stage…plug in and let it take you away.
