MV,EE and Gabriel Walsh - Temptation To Zoology [2003]

Un impulso de sus reflejos han capturado las escenas mágicas que abstractas dan forma a esta obra "Temptation To Zoology" bajo la cuna de Children of Microtones en el año 2003, Matt Valentine, Erika Elder y ahora la colaboración de Gabriel Walsh.
Historia orgánica custodiada por las hievas, es medicina natural, cual es el similar efecto que se riega en amor a la distancia para emerger en los colores de su isla?, en continuidad sonora y sensorial profunda de oídos atentos, observando las frecuencias que activan el baile de la mar, un paso en el cielo que mantuvo con fé, ahora estas preparado para flotar!.

El formato de video en el cual lo he subido es avi.

Matt Valentine Interview / Dream Magazine

Matt Valentine has made some of the most enjoyable acoustic based psychedelic improvisational music ever recorded, both in his several solo albums (usually with Erika Elder aka EE, pictured above with MV), and work with the band Tower Recordings (with folks like: P.G. Six, Helen Rush, Erika Elder, and Tim Barnes among others). Matt’s solo albums tend towards the more spare and spectral end of the spectrum; acoustic explorations that show their Fahey roots as well as a deep love of Indian classical music and much more. The music he makes with Tower Recordings fuses a Takoma Records acoustic based organic folk sensibility with a spaceman/caveman psychedelic tribalism that employs: various (mostly) acoustic and electric guitars, percussion, marimba, tin whistle, Wurlitzer electric piano, ring modulator, shakuhachi, cello, piano, tapes, primitive electronics, autoharp, oscillator, drums, and more with a sense that they are also playing the acoustics of the given space they are reverberating within. There is some Incredible String Band in the mix as well; along with, the earliest recorded blues, ESP Disk outsider vibes, and clouds and clouds of smoke. Some of Matt’s finest solo outings include: Tonight! One Night Only! MV & EE in Heaven (originally issued on Matt’s Child of Microtones imprint, and later on vinyl by Time-Lag), Space Chanties (Fringes Recordings), and Glorious Group Therapy (Ecstatic Yod). A couple essential TR releases are: Furniture Music for Evening Shuttles (Siltbreeze), and Folk Scene (Communion).

Matt Valentine + Erika Elder - "Ragas of the Culvert" / "Total Loss Songs" [2008]

MV & EE is a group of musicians focused around Matt "MV" Valentine and his partner Erika "EE" Elder. Matt Valentine was in the neo-psychedelic group, The Tower Recordings. While the duo recorded under many different names, including MV & EE Medicine Show and The Bummer Road, most of the records center around both artists and feature a rotating cast of additional musicians. Their style is self-described as "lunar ragas", with many of the lyrics dealing with celestial imagery. They combine Indian raga style composition with Appalachian folk and post-psychedelic electrical experimentalism. They use Western and Eastern acoustic instruments amplified and augmented with effects such as reverb, delay, and flange. Their compositions occasionally feature vocals, which are off-kilter and rambling, while seeming drugged.
