Valentina Magaletti & YPY

Stubnitz presents: Exit Elbbrücken

percussion | experimental | contemporary | improv | drone | free jazz

Valentina Magaletti is a drummer-composer and multi-instrumentalist who redefines percussion with her original approach. Her versatile technique, ranging from vibraphone to contact microphones, allows her to explore bold and unconventional soundscapes, enriching the folkloric and traditional palette of her native Italy.

As a drummer, she fluidly navigates between alternative and mainstream music. Her prolific discography is a testament to her broad artistic spectrum and impact on the contemporary music scene - and so are her numerous collaborations, including names like Vanishing Twin, Tomaga, UUUU, Raime, Nicolas Jaar and Jandek.

For the LP Kansai Bruises, Valentina Magaletti has combined forces with musician, producer and composer YPY (aka Koshiro Hino of Goat)

YPY is a solo project led by Koshiro Hino. He runs a cassette tape label called Birdfriend, which features underground musicians from Japan and around the world. Hino also operates the contemporary/electronic record label, NAKID.

More acts to be announced.
