Valentina Magaletti and YPY – Kansai Bruises

Drummer, percussionist and composer Valentina Magaletti (Moin, Holy Tongue, Vanishing Twin) has
combined forces with musician, producer and composer YPY (aka Koshiro Hino of Goat) for their LP,
Kansai Bruises.

The pair crash through Osaka’s neon-lit streets with abrasive drums and handcrafted Japanese electronics
that hit like pavement against skin. This is bliss carved from bruises—hope and fear tangled in metallic
percussion while dreams of pesto float through sake-soaked alleyways.
