A life´s story

Since its inception in 2010, much of Uncanny Valley's output has found its way into our proverbial (and literal) record bags here at Flux. As big fans of both Jacob Korn and Cuthead, we watched the label grow, accommodating releases from the likes of Massimilano Pagliara and Joel Alter. In its relatively short lifetime, Uncanny Valley has become an extremely well regarded label in European house music.

It's a privilege to be hosting an exclusive from the Dresden-based label, but for now we'll leave you with a quote from the press release that summarises the release far more accurately than we ever could...

"Hallelujah, House-heads and Hip-Hop-kids, be prepared. Listen to the word of the Sample Jesus!"

Release date: 15/08/2016 on uncannyvalleyrec.bandcamp.com

Return Of The Sample Jesus

First Play: Cuthead - My Love For You [Uncanny Valley]

German DJ/producer David Hanke (best known for his long-standing work as Renegades Of Jazz) returns next week with a brand new 12"! Out 19th October via South London label Shapes of Rhythm, 'Der Kugelkreis' is home to two slices of what Hanke calls "Krauthaus" - deep, winding, psychedelic house music for the afterparty crew. Pure in conception and thoughtful in execution, both of these tracks are sure to be picked up by discerning DJs. Our pick is 'Permutation', a slow burner that dazzles with yearning chords, organic percussion and kaleidoscopic vocal cut ups.

Chris Garneau emerged on the New York music scene in 2006 with his debut album Music for Tourists, first released on Absolutely Kosher Records. The album was released in Europe and Asia in 2007. His intimate, piano-driven sound caught international attention, particularly in France, after Vincent Moon filmed his Take-Away Show series.

Garneau’s haunting cover of Elliott Smith’s “Between the Bars” was featured in Pedro Almodóvar’s 2011 film The Skin I Live In, further cementing his presence on the global stage. Over the years, Garneau has released a series of critically acclaimed albums, including C-Sides EP (2007), El Radio (2009), Winter Games (2013), and Yours (2018). His distinctive voice and cinematic songwriting have led him to tour extensively across North America, Europe, Asia, and Brazil, sharing the stage with artists such as Xiu Xiu, José González, Keren Ann, My Brightest Diamond, Dawn Landes, Joan as Policewoman, among many others. Garneau opened for Charlotte Gainsbourg at the Montreux Jazz Festival.

The Kind (2021), Garneau’s fifth studio album, was produced by Patrick Higgins and marked both an evolution in his sound and a return to his roots. With its sparse arrangements and piano-driven production, the album echoed the intimacy of Music for Tourists while pushing his songwriting into new emotional depths. Following its release, he continued releasing dynamic singles “Ballard”, “Stranger”, and “Overexposure”, as well as his Out of Love EP in December 2023.

Now, Garneau returns with “Goldmine”, the lead single from his forthcoming album due September 2025. Produced and mixed alongside Dan Marcellus and mastered by Ruairi O’Flaherty at Nomograph, the album signals an exciting new chapter in his ever-evolving artistry. With roots in New York and Paris, Garneau has been captivating audiences around the world since his debut.
