maethelvin Maethelvin (of Valerie): The return of the 80s synthsizer.

We’re still loving the output of French collective Valerie. Have y’all heard Maethelvin? It falls somewhere between modern Kavinsky tunes and iconic ’80s TV and movie themes like Jan Hammer’s theme from Miami Vice or Harold Faltermeyer’s ‘Axel F’ from Beverly Hills Cop.

    You talking about Narctrax? Just yesterday we mentioned he's one of our favorite japanese exports. We posted his HEALTH remix, as well as his Teeangers remix a while back. I've been meaning to do a blog on his original production. Dude is killer!
