AUDIO: The Chewgs – “Let It Out”
With the release of ‘Let It Out,’ The Chewgs are bringing the feel-good energy that we are looking for right now. It is a track that was released before the end of 2022, but its significance is striking given that we are currently in the new year period. With this track, there is a sense of realising one’s full potential, and doing so is consistent with the resolutions that many people will be making for themselves.
The sound of ‘Let It Out’ has a texture that is all its own, and the pair from the United Kingdom demonstrates that you do not need an overly complicated mix to create a sound with potency with this track. The song begins with a bass groove that shuffles its way forward, finally coming face to face with a calmly strumming acoustic guitar that stands out with its tone.
The vocals are clear, and the two musicians complement one another by playing to their respective strengths. In addition, one of the singers performs a vocal that is an octave higher than the other, which results in a full stereo-filling effect. This technique reaches its peak in the chorus, when both singers really let loose and let the song carry them. They sing of not holding back and throwing away any tension or barriers that stand in the way.
The tune is memorable from beginning to end; it burrows its way deep into the listener’s consciousness, and it possesses a melody that draws us all the way to the edge of the speakers.
