6 cuts of introspective leftfield house from louf for valby rotary.

valby001 demonstrates louf’s keen ear for growling analogue synthesisers and crunchy perpetual drum rhythms. hiccup is a wintery club jam that follows an intertwining exchange between a vocal motif and a warm winding synth line, held down by a pounding drum workout. dawn loop provides a breath of early morning nostalgia, with a combination of dusty rattling percussion and hypnotic chords that swell and crackle recurrently.

tafter several successful releases on his own valby rotary label, louf joins tyr for our third release with the from a distance ep. combining elements from across the electronic spectrum this ep has something for everyone, from the warehouse feel of midi love to the bucolic quits, louf showcases his talent to weave deep, body moving bass and beats with playful, reminiscent melodies. when this dropped in our demo box we knew we had something special and think you’ll agree.

valby003 sees louf return, fusing heavier club elements with sentimental synth work. ‘if i was’ is a pummelling drum track, laced with synths that rise and fall gently, providing a fleeting moment of warm autumnal euphoria.
on the flip side we have ‘outside my house’. robotic, vibrating vocals challenge its listener to question the levels of emotion that a technological being can possess. delicate, tender house music.
prepare your heartstrings & welcome back louf!

now the dust has settled after louf’s debut, we have an emotionally driven release from tom vr on valby rotary. ‘hear me out’ is a deep club track that builds an atmosphere of both heart warmth and heart break. it boasts eerie vocal samples, raspy chords and coarse punching drums, making it energetic yet still suitable for the sensitive euphoria of the dance floor. the b side ‘indigo’ is a pulsating soundscape of longing & tension that eventually erupts with an uplifting finale of acid and the splash of ride cymbals.
