Kelpe unveils "Valerian", the second preview of upcoming record The Curved Line
UK producer Kelpe has shared a new track called "Valerian", the second preview of upcoming LP The Curved Line.
Speaking about the track, Kelpe said: "I wanted to combine the type of chord progressions and melodies I’m known for with much faster skippy kind of rhythms that I’m not so known for, so this came out as the fastest track on the LP, running at about 135bpm or something. I used pretty much my whole selection of analog synths on it and ran all the vocal chops through this outboard Waldorf filter, which I used a lot throughout the album to add a bit of overdriven grit to certain elements in the mix. It makes the vocals sound kind of underwater as well."
The Curved Line is out 24 August on DRUT Recordings. It follows 2013's Fourth: The Golden Eagle.
