With great joy we announce VALLEY001, a compilation of Valley family members that displays the versatility, power and most of all talent their community possesses. On the 2nd anniversary of the Valley Radio mix series we are able to celebrate a great coming together of people, motivated by passion and love. 
In this project Valley shows once again that they move rather like an organism than a static platform. Constructing an ever-evolving state influenced by the creative energy of its digital and social surroundings, Valley’s next shape will always be surprising yet familiarly touching. 
Treat yourself to a great variety of sounds with the debut compilation album and start your adventure of discovering the Valley.

KUTHI JIN + VORONHIL - FOOLTRON967

Gone Baby Records returns with a new release from South Texan duo Nudo who, in just under 30 minutes, aim to evoke a kind of reverence for the ghostly grandeur of rural and agricultural hubs along the Texan border. The release was recorded across South and Central Texas over the better part of a year. On ‘Acequia’, the nearly 5 minute sprawling sound collage echoes isolation, soundtracking a desolate area which drifts in and out of company. Driven by a subdued piano melody, ‘Acequia’ feels almost haunted by the business of vocal samples and moody synths that scatter in and out of hearing. 

‘Quematrasgos’ by nudo will be released on the 1st July via Gone Baby Records - pre-order here: https://americansouthwest.bandcamp.com/album/nudo-quematrasgos

@bademjan

The 46th release of katharsis is the EP “Plumage” by french artist Bademjan, coming out in full on November 18th. "Plumage" takes the listener on an epic voyage guided by the arcane wisdom of synthetic bird-guides, mysterious creatures leading the way through haunting and sublime realms. The EP emerges as a reflection on the pursuit of elusive truths and their role in shaping identity, and unfolds like an initiatory journey, inviting the listener to explore realms of feelings unremembered and times that never were.

From the discovery of a hidden chapel where stained glass whispers vivid secrets, to eerie calls piercing the night in a moonlit forest, each of the seven tracks reveals a new chapter in this overarching tale. Throughout the journey, the mystical birds appear briefly but meaningfully, offering both an unsettling and comforting presence as they help us navigate the shifting sands of self and accept the inevitable decay of all that we hold dear.

On “Plumage”, Bademjan unfolds his full potential by materializing his sonic development with incorporation of the electric upright bass as the backbone of the record, with its sound manipulated and processed to evoke a spectrum of emotional textures, from delicate pizzicato notes to deep sub-bass roars and gritty bow strokes. This organic foundation is enriched with woodwind-esque synths, ethereal vocal harmonies and the uncanny chirps of artificial birds, creating a sonic fable that feels both eternal and ephemeral.

Bademjan has previously put out releases with labels White Garden and Olga Productions, and contributed to compilations from Club Late Music, 90000realms and evo-natura besides figurating on the katharsis compilations “Embracing Darkness, Absorbing Light” and “Infinite Summer: Fantasi”.

Since breaking through with his acclaimed debut album Pixel Wave Embrace, Yamaneko has been one of the key artists combining electronic and ambient music - with a fragile sound equally inspired by grime, new age cassette music, video game OSTs, keygen compositions and techno. 

Despite being his first release, Pixel Wave Embrace became a cult classic - quietly but notably influential on both the artists around him and further afield. Yamaneko has continued to spread his influence since, soundtracking an advert by Supreme, providing the music for a short film by Oliver Payne (work shown at MoMA, The Serpentine, The Tate, Whitechapel Gallery and more), teaming up with Mr. Mitch as Yaroze Dream Suite and composing music for a series of European spas, collected in his 2017 mini-album Spa Commissions. 

On Afterglow, Yamaneko tears up the rulebook once again. His darkest, fullest release to date, it finds him shredding, distorting and reversing trance signifiers into brutal, broken compositions, honing in on the most unhinged aspects of euphoria. As ever with Yamaneko though, there are key moments of bliss to offset the darkness - centre-piece ‘Oslo House Sunrise 4K’ strips things back for one of his most gentle but arresting songs yet, and the melodies of closing track ‘Hydrokinesis’ linger long after the record has finished. The insert of Pixel Wave Embrace declared that “gentle can be powerful”, and never has Yamaneko combined the two like on Afterglow. 

Yamaneko will bring Afterglow to life with a new live AV show this Autumn, at London’s Rye Wax on September 19, plus Uganda’s Nyege Nyege Festival and Norway’s Insomnia Festival.

GOODIES

British-born nomad Matt Karmil never stays in one place too long, and that restless nature also defines much of his genre-hopping output. Fresh off the release of his largely ambient 'Will' album on Smalltown Supersound, Karmil has cued up a new, dancefloor-ready 'Sourced' EP for Aus Music. Ahead of its release on August 17, we debuted the emotive chords and shuffling groove of the record's title track on Red Bull Radio's First Floor, our weekly look at what's new in electronic music.
