Valentino Mora 'Body Nostalgia EP' (IDO Records)
Valentino Mora has been making waves in the underground scene for a while, but not under his real name. You’ll know him as French Fries, the ClekClekBoom extraordinaire who makes technical, intergalactic beats loaded with tones, bleeps and bloops. Now, though, he’s started his own label, IDO Records. ‘Steamroom’ (6am Exaltation mix) is a mystical and well-calculated first step, as Mora channels his sound to explore the murky depths and venture into the serene. We can’t wait for more.
