Italian DJ and producer VALENTINØ makes his debut on ARTCORE this February, with a killer 2 track original release showcasing his trademark hypnotic melodies and frenetic rhythms. With past releases on Second State, Suara and Materia, he also is the co-founder of Mantra Club in Genoa and runs his own label Overtime Records. You’ll find him playing some of the ARTCORE Showcases that Indira Paganotto announced last month, alongside Indira herself, Chris Liebing, Ben Klock...

From the brooding beginnings of ‘Baba Baby’ it becomes clear that whilst VALENTINØ has sought to embody the ARTCORE aesthetic within the EP title track, he is just as earnest in his commitment to producing fast and unsparing techno. Following a cocktail of deftly layered drums comes the crackling of fireworks to signal take-off for a mercurial rush through a dark lunar journey dispersed by unearthly vocals, frazzling synths, and pummelling bass.

Up next, ‘My Mind’ wastes no time in thundering into gear with bruising intensity and little sympathy for those unprepared. VALENTINØ’s cerebral understanding of his craft allows for a distinct take on quintessential techno as off-kilter drum-breaks and eyebrow raising effects – such as the “surprise” – add oodles of character and dashes of colour to an otherwise shadowy soundscape.

It's clear why VALENTINØ’ has been selected for the boundary pushing imprint’s next release as looks to further establish her already compelling reputation through ARTCORE’s artist roster.

VALENTINØ’S ‘Baba Baby’ is available from 22nd February via ARTCORE.
