Nica hosts Valentino Mora's first ever live performance, "Biotope", rooted in his experimentation around ambient, drone and the deeper and more hypnotic corners of techno showcased in his full length album "Underwater" released last March on Donato Dozzy's Spazio Disponibile label.
Seamlessly incorporating influences of movement, expression and soul into his production, Valentino Canzani Mora has never strayed far from this ethos since his first productions.
Through his own label ‘IDO’ - or - Intercontinental Dance Organization, he has been drawing inspiration from the early ambient house scenes, IDO centres around melting percussion and modular synthesizers into a rhythmic migration of hypnotic soundscapes. Furthermore, IDO is Mora’s outlet for researching alternative anxiety relief methods and meditation through sound.
He recently started curating a compilation series based on this concept called
“Transcendental Movements” featuring 10 international artists. He reveals a more techno and experimental sound on the labels Dement3d and Spazio Disponibile.
Daniel Baughman will DJ before and after his performance.
