Interesting that they are returning to UAE on consecutive years.

Why not?
Hi Kevin!

There is no "why not". I just find it interesting that they will be returning to that area so quickly after never playing there before in their career. It probably means one or a combination of a few things:

• they're getting paid well to play there
• they left a really big impression last year and or that area left a big impression on them.
• they see potential for their music to flourish there

Either way, sounds like they found success in a non-obvious spot and I'm happy for them.

I'd say they've fallen for amphitheatres since they played last year's German show :D

But more seriously, it might very well be one of these possibilities, Bosco. New place, new experience and I couldn't picture them not being paid handsomely there of all places they have been too already :)

This area is growing really fast, a lot of people from Europe are going there to work (mostly attracted by the salary), which could explain the demand for bands like the Chems to play there.

Damn. Is it possible for them to make a dj set here in cologne? And one day later a full 3h live concert? Would pay money for this.

edit:
Concert with this setlist please https://forum.thechembase.com/index.php/topic,233.msg6837.html#msg6837

going to motion in bristol  ;D

exciting!!!!

I'm getting Daft Punk vibes from (well the vocoders, not the rest). I don't think I've heard it in a CB set before. Can anyone make me feel silly by pointing out what it is?

EDIT: "Eve Of Destruction" is what I'm tempted to call this until someone corrects me. Some nice rising sounds, (hmm...) although I expected it to take off rather than break down to the bass. Need to hear more.

EDIT2: . Perhaps confirms my suggested name. I can't shazam it.

EDIT3: It seems they instead of CHEMICAL.

EDIT 4: I reckon the bassline has a similar timbre to Keep On Making Me High. Here's . Apocalyptic lyrics, eh? Now who has provided the weird vox for this?

IT'S MORNING TIME!

eve of destruction!!!

never heard this before. definitely a stomper. love those cylon-voice sounds!

(are the chems doing a 90's house themed album???? anyway...)

fy sounds slightly different but not a bad way.

funny...no clips of hbhg yet!  :D

KOMMH was played as well (my fave of all the new tracks)
This is up there. Like, Star Guitar up there.

So, it's a part of KOMMH?

Nah.
With each successive edit of my post above I was leaning more & more towards convincing myself that this was a new Chems track. And I have indeed succeeded!
The bit about the bass was my way of saying it sounds like it's a track from the same new 'era' as KOMMH. But actually the bass doesn't sound that similar. So I was probably talking out of my ass.  :)

That can only mean they didn't play it !

KOMMH, with newly added bell sounds. Not sure if they're part of the same track though

KOMMH too. Seems like they added some FX sounds here and there and bongos

OK TOM THATS ENOUGH TWEAKING!

I like this version with the new additions (even the one before it) but im kind of afraid of the more he keeps fiddling around with the track, the more its gonna sound not as good as before.

I'm hearing 'im dancing' on the vocal!

edit: I was way off!! at work with no headphones! Hard to make out that vocal!

They did tonight. Dubai instas full of clips. Some nice looking lazers there. What's that weird that they sometimes mix into HBHG?

They also dug out a fave Chems oldie of mine:
And Tom's
A second airing for Erhalder's Random Jack14 which I mentioned in Now Playing a couple of weeks ago and and
Nice "Go"

Can't find any new Chems clips though. Different kinda crowd to the last show I guess.
IT'S MORNING TIME!

They already mixed this weird accordian shizzle into HBHG back in 2012 @ WHP. Seems to be some sort of demo material they've been working on but never got fully developed.

But I noticed that too.  ???
So let your body rock...
