I had a hard time finding any information on Chad Valley, aka Hugo Manuel. It looks like he is currently residing in Oxford, UK, however I'm not sure if he is British. This guy has a knack for creating some killer chillwave. He has some solid remixes, sampling artists such as Alicia Keys, Mariah Carey, and R. Kelly, to name a few.
I love how his style takes on more of an 80s/house style than any American chillwave I've heard, all while leaving the usual "four to the floor" beat, dreamy vocals, synthesizers, and slow-motion funk-feel in tact. Some describe it as "island chillwave". There isn't much more to say but to listen to the songs on his Tumblr and enjoy. His R&B remixes are available for download on his Facebook fan page.
