Review

The BedroomResearch family is proud to welcome a new son! 26 years old producer and sound student from UK: Valance Drakes (also known under the "Muss_ck" acronym). He could be considered as being part of what seems to be « IDM 2.0 », a new breed of the glitchy, deep and processed “hiphopish” electronica we used to see (and love) coming from labels such as Schematic, Warp, Werk, etc.

Valance Drakes, shows a fascination for ethereal and sub-aquatic ambiances overlapping a detailed and soulfoul glitch knitting work topped by proto-hiphop beats and broken glass grooves from space, delivering in the process a full psychoacoustic experience... A kind of SciFi nostalgic crunk from Venus, somewhere between Prefuse73, Lukid, Slicker, Jake Mandell, Astrobotnia and Flying Lotus with a lot of spices and freshness. He is also to drop quite soon some new bombs with our mates of Schematic and Detroit Underground, so stay tuned!
