Our friends at Sixunder7 music have given us the drop on Valerna's new remix package that is going to be available for free soon. Valerna is hooking us all up with some free tunes because they are just so goddamn happy to announce their signing to Miles Dyson's German electro/techo/house label Plasmapool. Dyson is somewhat of of a wunderkind of dance music. He started out DJing at age 13 and quickly rose through the ranks of Europe's reining clubland rulers. These days, in addition to the original music he creates and the other artist's music he is remixing, Dyson also runs more than a dozen labels, each catering to a different interpretation of electronic music. Dyson is world renowned for his open embrace of all styles of dance music and has invited Valerna into his fold.Their first release for Plasmapool, the Teenage Muntant Ninja Techno ep, builds on their already knock a motherfucker out sound. We were given an little inside listen and it is some wild shit. If Valerna know anything, they know glitches, those great little moments that catch you off guard and keep the beat from getting repetitive. "Up the Punx!" and "Burn it Down!" (both of which sound like they should be should be A Global Threat or the Unseen song titles) drip hydrochloric acid on the beat at precise points to isolate certain sounds, only to have the full rhythm back a second later. "Action! Disco!" takes a weirder turn and is a study in bending the tone, reminiscent of manually slowing a record with your fingers. Valerna is definitely skilled in building the tension of the song and then releasing it, and that is front and center on all three tracks. Look for it sometime around June.
