about

The re-press has landed!
This time in collaboration with Little Cloud Records (US customers please hit them up) and pressed as an eco variant on totally random colours.

Rare as hen's teeth!

Sicilian multi-instrumentalist and producer Gioele Valenti is a key figure of the European underground music scene. He is one half of acclaimed Occult Psych project Llay Lamas (Rocket Recordings). He is the man behind Herself, a folktronica project that involved the likes of Jonathan Donahue of Mercury Rev, John Fallon of The Steppes and Amaury Cambuzat of Faust and Ulan Bator. He was also the guitarist of Josefin Öhrn + The Liberation. Most importantly, he is the creator of the unclassifiable JuJu. Championed by Goatman and Capra Informis of GOAT, JuJu have already released three albums (two of which with Fuzz Club Records) and left a permanent mark in the international Psychedelic scene and beyond.

“For Valenti, the music and words conspire with ancient symbols and arcane memory, something buried deep in the collective unconscious of the Mediterranean, to give voice to a ‘drowning’ culture.”
—MOJO (UK)

“Just when you thought you might never want to hear another ‘psych rock’ album again in your life, along comes an artist who resets the coordinates and makes the past seem startling new again.”
—The Quietus (UK)

"A dreamlike journey into the roots of Mediterranean Europe ... between psychedelic accents and Tuareg music, it does not neglect its Mediterranean influences."
—Tsugi (FR)

"A multilayered odyssey of brooding jazz, world and aggressive electronica textures, it is nicely uncategorizable and easy to get lost in"
—Shindig! (UK)

"JuJu creates an invisible bridge between the voodoo tones of West Africa and a rhythmic rock infused with psychedelia."
—Magic RPM (FR)
