New Chance

New Chance is the solo project of Toronto-based multidisciplinary artist Victoria Cheong, who blends experimental electronics, hypnotic synth textures, and poetic introspection into her music. Known for her shapeshifting sound that dances between ambient explorations, leftfield pop, and rhythmic industrial pulses, Cheong has become a standout in Canada's DIY electronic scene since emerging in the 2010s. Her recent releases like *Real Time* and *A Rock Unsteady* showcase her knack for balancing cerebral production with visceral emotional currents, often weaving themes of transformation and vulnerability.

A collaborator at heart, New Chance frequently remixes tracks for peers (like the quirky *What If Heidi Likes The City?* rework) and invites other artists to reinterpret her work, as seen in Pelada's punchy take on *Time Treat Me Right*. Beyond music, Cheong’s practice spans visual art and immersive installations, reflecting her interest in merging sonic and physical spaces. With releases on labels like Telephone Explosion and a reputation for mesmerizing live performances, New Chance continues to map uncharted territories between body-moving beats and headphone-ready contemplation.
