New podcast by Valerj !
Dj & Producer from France, Corsica, Valerj has this beautiful musical sensitivity that many artists lack.

Exploring all these influences as perfectly as possible, his productions and his mixes are inspired as much by contemporary music as by music from the 70's or 80's.

Podcast Mélopée Records 039 - Valerj

Based in the Netherlands, Doctr signs his first release with Mélopée. It is a heterogeneous EP of 4 original tracks that mix their influences sensitively and complexly. It is a haunting musical edifice where the groove and fabulous melodies tell the story of a third-kind encounter.

“First Contact” is a powerful Italo Banger. The track is efficient and strong and takes off in an epic way when the melody comes.

The piece “Please take me with you” can’t be explained, it can be listened to. Slow speed, captivating pad and lead, let’s go for the goosebumps.

With “Peace, no peace”, it’s time to fight it out on the dancefloor. The Italorave song is fast, uncompromising, unfolding a frantic rhythm.

The last original sound “Where do we go from here” seems to be about hope after conflict. A splendid italo tune perfectly cut to close the party.

After remixing Panthera, Panthera now takes care of giving one to Doctr. He signs here a fantastic and rolling story inspired by 80s atmospheres. As per usual, the audience is transported, eyes closed, smile on the lips: thrills guaranteed !

We welcome the talented Valerj again for the second remix to close the release.He gives “Where do we go from here” a darker and more progressive touch, where the tension keeps building over and over again. Awesome !

"Dans ce monde où tout va très vite, “Le début du beau” essaye au contraire de nous donner le temps en proposant un trajet balisé, une boucle guidée de 47 minutes qui pose des questions, des questions universelles sur notre capacité à se relever, notre capacité à garder espoir, des questions sur notre capacité à donner de l’amour, à donner de l’amour et à le recevoir.

“Le début du beau” est un objet, un objet qui s’écoute dans sa globalité, un objet dont on fait le tour plusieurs fois pour mieux le comprendre, pour mieux l’appréhender, un objet nostalgique qui rend hommage à ces disques qui parfois changent nos vies par leurs singularités, leurs capacités à entrer en résonance avec un moment, une époque de nos vies."

PREMIERE: Valerj - Dans Tes Yeux (Ft. Solène Meyer)

Born at the end of the 80s in Bastia, Corsica, François Dagregorio alias "Valerj" comes from a generation in which long formats occupy a special place in the discographies of electronic music artists. It was with this in mind that the production of "Le début du beau", Valerj's debut album, began: an almost fantastical desire to show something more intimate, to tell a story, perhaps his own story.
A child of dance music, dj since the age of 16, in the space of just three ep's Valerj's productions have already toured the world, appearing in the sets of major players on the dark disco / indie dance scene such as Jennifer Cardini, Curses, Perel and Modular Project. Always keen to collaborate and exchange ideas, since 2022 he has
also crossed paths with renowned artists such as Damon Jee, Roe Deers, Amarcord and Joe Lewandowski on remixes.
Despite his obvious affinity with the dark disco scene, which is still very active today, the artist has chosen a completely different path for this "debut album", reconnecting with influences that are much more house, ambient and electro.
Metro Area, Dj Koze, Boards of Canada, Nina Kraviz, Anthony Rother, Miss Kittin & The Hacker, Jimmy Edgar - the list of heroes could go on and on, but that's not the point. Avoiding the trap of the "dancefloor compilation", offering music that can be
heard everywhere but heard nowhere before, that is the "ambitious ambition" of this eight-track collection: music that "speaks", that speaks of love, that speaks of the night, music that dances, that dances as well as lives.
In today's fast-paced world, "Le début du beau" is an attempt to give us time, by offering us a signposted route, a 47-minute guided loop that asks questions - universal questions about our ability to get back on our feet, our ability to remain hopeful, questions about our ability to give love, to give love and to receive it.
"Le début du beau" is an object, an object to be listened to in its entirety, an object to be revisited several times to better understand it, to better apprehend it, a nostalgic object that pays tribute to those records that sometimes change our lives
through their singularity, their ability to resonate with a moment, an era in our lives.

PREMIERE : Valerj - Le Début Du Beau (Feat. Thomas Marfisi)

Epicure Records proudly announces the launch of "Bon Vivant," a series sharing the essence of Epicureanism of freely downloadable music celebrating our hidden pleasures.
Accompany this symphony with a fine bottle of wine or other delights for a complete celebration of life wherever you are in the world !
__________________________________________________________________

The 9th track of the 'Bon Vivant' series comes from corsican artist @valerj

Producer, co-creator of the From disco to disko label and the Ballà Boum festival.

if Valerj had chosen to buy a guitar at the age of fifteen, the story would certainly have been different. But at the dawn of the 2000s, as club culture flooded Europe's biggest cities, turntables became a dream, even for a teenager from Corsica.

To use these turntables, you need records. When he can't find them at the only record shop in his hometown of Bastia, he orders them (or steals them in dubious mp3 versions) from the web. It was precisely this tool, the Internet, that shook up his certainties at the dawn of his twenties. Myspace, Reason, the Fluokids…

The Mediterranean was disappearing, the legendary Calvi on the rocks festival was exploding, and nothing would ever be the same again. He scoured these island festivals, not only as a partygoer but also as an artist. As the years went by, his cross-disciplinary tastes became more pronounced. In 2017, the monthly From disco to disko evenings were born, culminating in the creation of an eponymous label in early 2019.

In the space of just three ep's, Valerj's productions have already toured the world, appearing in sets by major players on the dark disco / indie dance scene such as Jennifer Cardini, Curses or Perel. Always eager to collaborate and exchange, since 2022 he has also crossed paths with renowned artists such as Damon Jee, Roe Deers, Amarcord or Joe Lewandowski for remixes.

Despite his obvious affinity with the dark disco scene, which is still very active today, Valerj chose a completely different path for his debut album  “Le début du beau”, released last May on From disco to disko. After more than twenty years in the world of the dance music, this long format is an opportunity for him to reconnect with his early house, ambient and electro influences, and to pay homage to some of the records that shook up his adolescence and his way of making music.

If the members of the "From disco to disko" team had chosen to buy guitars at the age of fifteen, the story would certainly have been different. But, as we are just entering the 2000s, as the club culture has finished flooding Europe's biggest cities, turntables have become a dream come true, even in Corsica. To use these turntables you need records. When they can't find them at the only dealer in the Bastia region, they order them (or steal them in dubious mp3 versions) on the web.
It is precisely this tool, the Internet, that shakes up their certainties at the dawn of their twenties. Myspace, Reason, the Fluokids... the Mediterranean fades away, Calvi on the rocks explodes, nothing will ever be like before. These island festivals they skimmed, as party people, as artists. As the years go by, their transversal tastes assert themselves.
In 2017, the monthly From disco to disko evenings were born, leading to the creation of an eponymous label in early 2019, a new medium to express their multifaceted love of dance music. 
Italo, dark disco, electronica, the now modest label owners Valerj & Alto Kango are fond of uninhibited evening sets, built to last. Elegant warm-up or end-of-the-night "plasticage", it's hard to know which way to dance with them.
