Everyone, everyone! Go prepare your turntables, because artist-extraordinaire and co-founder of visionary label NON Worldwide, Angelo Antonio Valerio — a.k.a. Angel-Ho — is back with a new, limited vinyl version of his “noise symphony” Red Devil! It’s out November 3 through NON Worldwide, and it’s gonna make your needles jump violently but also extremely satisfyingly! Go, go! (Except, wait! Keep reading first!)
If you’re unfamiliar with all this Red Devil hoopla, just know that press for the new release throws around words like “dystopian” and “dreamscape” and “mastered by Rabit.” It also alludes to the fact that it tries to capture in some way the queer and trans experience in South Africa with harsh productions “led by a fierce orchestra and choir” that amount to “protest noise music for decolonization.” Who would have expected NON’s co-founder to be so ambitious?!
So, if that sounds worth your precious time and you’re, like: waiting, palpitating, salivating, drooling for that sweet, sweet pre-order link — well then. Here. You. Go.
