• Chloé has been on our radar for some years, as a DJ to be watched, both on the club circuit and in her fine compilations, of which she has done many.
• The album ‘The Waiting Room’ is her début solo enterprise, and it represents a culmination of all her skills as a DJ and of all the influences and nuances of the material she has been playing for the last 5 years or so.
• It is a dark album, laden with underlying heaviness, an effective antidote to the fizzy extremities of mainstream dance. But dark is not without beauty, subtlety and grace; qualities all present here in this much-praised work.
• ‘The Waiting Room is a far more textured and varied album than you might have imagined, and consequently makes for an involving, consistently entertaining listen.’ Boomkat.com
• ‘For all that it evokes a severe comedown, there is a deep, opulent beauty to Chloé's music that compels you to return for more.’ The Guardian
Press has been big on this title, spilling out from the dance specialists to encompass a wider readership, from The Guardian and Independent to web reviews and comment. All of this has been positive, when you consider that the album makes for challenging listening; in this instance, there is a strong positive to ‘challenging’.
