Chaos in The CBD
New Zealand brothers making hazy, dub-tinged deep house that never rushes — patient grooves with a jazz record collection audibly behind them.
Chaos in the CBD is the duo of brothers Ben and Louis Helliker-Hales, originally from Auckland, New Zealand and later based in London. Their records lean on warm, unhurried deep house with dub and jazz inflections, favouring long, gently shifting grooves over sharp turns. They have released on labels including Rhythm Section International and In Dust We Trust, their own imprint, and also work regularly as a DJ pairing.
