Stripped & Chewed

Following releases on Argot and Smart Bar Chicago's North Side '82 label, Savile's Stripped & Chewed debut, No Sleep, Not In America, is a study in simplicity and its power on the dancefloor. Drawing from diverse American influences, the release's title track is a 130bpm wonky techno scorcher with an undulating funky bassline; A2 "When I Blow Fire" kicks the tempo down a notch and features the kind of vocal sample guaranteed to stick in your head; B1 "The Only Rule Is Work" is a cavernous house number anchored by a crystalline synth; and B2 "Thanks To The Heads in Jackson Park," plays like a love letter to classic Chicago house. No Sleep, Not In America tells you something: "My reference points are almost entirely American artists and genres," explains Savile. "Detroit and Chicago are the anchor points of the sound I'm chasing, and I'm enamored with the sweat equity that it took to maintain these cities' scenes and output at their peak." - Chris Zaldua
