Today, Helter Skelter Productions (distributed & marketed by Regain Records) announces November 17th as the international release date for Mauvet Mauve‘s highly anticipated debut album, self-titled Mauvet Mauve, on CD, vinyl LP, and cassette tape formats.
Mauvet Mauve is yet another creative guise of prolific madman Wagner Ödegård, renown among freaks and underground dwellers for Wulkanaz and his selfsame solo work as well as Tomhet, Dughpa, and Felon Wind among others. Always restless and always challenging perceptions, Wagner turns his dark vision toward 8-bit music with Mauvet Mauve – and shockingly, reinterprets his Wulkanaz and solo works within this nostalgic style. Authentic as it comes, Mauvet Mauve bleeps, bloops, and shuffles with invigorating forward momentum, providing the perfect soundtrack for a gaming session circa 1989. Amazing on paper and even more amazing in execution, Wagner-as-Mauvet Mauve manages to expose the perversely sprightly underbelly of his otherwise-pitch-black aesthetic, making Mauvet Mauve-the-album a mandatory listen for both maniacs of his myriad works as well as those faithful to the chiptune renaissance.
