WE CAN'T WAIT 🪩 SATURDAY

🔥 Dance with us! We take over Koralle Dresden for one night to celebrate our new tape release with Gareth Psaltis. This is music that feels like a new musical adventure for us – unfamiliar territory also for our new friend, the Australian-Berliner Gareth Psaltis, especially since he had previously released music under the pseudonym Barking. »In Her Reflection« ventures into electronic landscapes shaped by jungle, wave, techno, and post-punk, while also revealing smaller ambient and jazz islands along the way. His live set will tell this travel story in a pretty straightforward variation.

Alongside the Uncanny Valley DJs, support comes from two local heroines: Fran with one of her UK sound-informed sets, and Alphonsine Koh, who combines freshness, a spirit of experimentation, and Abfahrt like no one else.

With IN HER REFLECTION the Australian-born artist steps into a new chapter. Formerly releasing music under the moniker Barking, the Berlin-based producer now presents his most personal work to date under his full name, marking both an artistic and emotional shift. It’s his first release on our long-running Dresden-based label Uncanny Valley, which is venturing into uncharted territory with this release.

The album signals a clear move away from the analogue-synthesis foundations of his earlier output towards a more fragmentary, collage-like approach. Samples drawn from obscure jazz and Greek folk records intertwine with everyday field recordings, framed by jungle rhythms and ambient drift but also post punk-informed basslines, wave and jazz structures. The result is music that feels intimate yet open-ended, rooted in club culture while quietly pulling away from it.

Written over the past one to two years, IN HER REFLECTION mirrors a period of profound change in Psaltis’ life. Navigating the isolation and uncertainty of living in Berlin, the process was shaped by his wife’s pregnancy and the birth of his first daughter, experiences that brought new forms of connection, grounding and belonging. These themes surface most clearly on the title track, which also marks the first appearance of Psaltis’ own vocals, reflecting on transformation, vulnerability and closeness.

Balancing introspection with rhythmic precision, IN HER REFLECTION is not a reinvention but a refinement, an album that embraces subtlety, memory and emotional resonance and positions Gareth Psaltis firmly within Uncanny Valley’s distinctive catalogue.

✍️ Written and produced by Gareth Psaltis in the little room. Guitar on Track 1 from Billy K.
🎨 The eight tracks form a coherently sounding album that is best visualised by the unique artwork by our very own Carl-Johannes Schulze.
