 Dexy & Chris Valentine have returned to enchant listeners with their latest, deeply atmospheric album, "Cascades" & you can hear us chat all about it on this episode of Dreamgaze Overtone. We talked about the origin stories of the band, the new album & what went into it creatively, our mutual love for The Doors & the wide open spaces of the desert, the romantic serendipity that defines their artistic journey & even the time they were featured on Coast to Coast AM with George Nory (big fan over here y'all)!

Far from a mere collection of songs, "Cascades" is like a cohesive sonic portal, pulling you into a world shaped by gothic romance, ancient myth, metaphysical & supernatural moods capturing the aural element of water, along with the lingering echoes of the past. Layered guitars, droning synths & heavy reverb collectively create a dense, hazy texture & that density of "Cascades" evokes the feeling of being underwater; where the sounds seems to move around you rather than directly at you.

Both lyrically & musically Dexy & Chris were inspired by water on this album & listening to it from start to finish will leave you feeling utterly submerged. The vocals & instrumentation on this album literally seem to float over one another rather than sit squarely in the mix, giving the impression of voices coming from a far off place; like you're listening to it deep within a lake or beneath a moonlit river. They build, swell, & recede like tides, making the listener adrift in the midst of the current of the song.

A truly fluid soundscape steeped in an otherworldly atmosphere💫 Tune In; Turn On to this episode of Dreamgaze Overtone because after the interview we will be listening to the full album "Cascades" from start to finish along with a bunch of other great tunage as well✨
