Hugo Manuel is so incredibly musically gifted that he is able to spread himself across two groups and still deliver insatiable tunes for both projects. Double pats on the back for you, Hugo.

Hugo Manuel, also known as Chad Valley and 1/5 of UK based quintet Jonquil, has infused the lingering pop beats of the 80s with contemporary melodies on his latest track, “Fast Challenges.” This song is a part of Chad Valley’s upcoming EP, Equatorial Ultravox, which will be released on June 20 via Cascine.

“Fast Challenges” gives listeners a magical trippy experience without even having to ingest an experimental substance.
