Chon beside The Materials: detail-minded listening, darker climate
Chon open a side of progressive music where technique serves light and mobility. The Materials sits in another emotional spectrum, yet a listener may still share the wish to leave a standard heavy schematic behind.
Short answer
The link is curiosity about detail and non-standard compositional motion—not matching mood.
Pover mne carries that curiosity into a dark, electronic-cinematic environment.
Progressive colour survives the turn; the temperature drops.
