Pick of the Day: "Chimes" by Hudson Mohawke


CDS Picks has officially been retired and will be replaced with a daily, more in-depth look at a single song. This new feature will be dubbed the Pick of the Day.

Thanks to a highly successful ad campaign launched by the Apple Corporation, "Chimes", a brand new electronic banger from up and coming artist Hudson Mohawke, has become immensely popular overnight. First used in the late July advertisements for the Macbook collection, "Chimes" has attracted lots of critical buzz, which has helped propel it to #3 on the iTunes Electronic Chart and the top 200 overall most downloaded tracks worldwide list.

After opening low on last week's CDS Music Chart Hot 50, "Chimes" could be the next electronic song to become a massive success on the chart. The genre has made a massive mark this year, claiming dozens of chart hits from including "Hideaway" and "Giant In My Heart" by Kiesza (#1 and #3 on the Hot 50), Disclosure's "Latch (feat. Sam Smith)" (#3 on the Hot 50), Secondcity's "I Wanna Feel" (#10 on the Hot 50), Clean Bandit's "Rather Be (feat. Jess Glynne)" (#4 on the Hot 50 and the #1 best performer of 2014 to date) among many more. Additionally, "Chimes" is the only song without any words to enter the Hot 50.

Give "Chimes" a spin below.
