KSS3TE’s first sub-label brings a new name and an imaginatively fresh perspective on the deep-and-melodic house sound. KSS3TE After Dark is here!
In 2022, Tali’s distinctive TVLI production approach caught the attention of Grammy-nominated musician BT, paving the way for the electronic music pioneer to make him KSS3TE AD’s debut signing. From there, TVLI worked closely with BT and multi-platinum-selling artist Christian Burns to expand his vibe into a (2024-forthcoming) album’s worth of material. Its singles journey however begins today with KSS3TEAD001, the pensive, mediative and truly quite beautiful ‘Keep You’.
While TVLI’s a relative electronic music tenderfoot, he’s a man with eclectic history in the broader area, stretching back to his 5yo, piano experimenting origins. After spending many years as a guitarist in various bands, circumstances pointed him back to his keyboard roots. Unable to bring his guitar on a 2015 deployment, his commitment to music creation saw him seek a more portable option. Through Ableton he began working on a new core sound.
Post-deployment, Tali’s primary interest shifted towards analogue synthesizers, which provided a natural gateway into the electronic music space. Combining that synthesis with pianos, guitars and other instrumentation, he further nuanced this new take.
All that now manifests on TVLI’s ‘Keep You’, the fabric of which is a pacifically undulating waveform where multiple sub-melodies nag gently at its production. Its vocals are left to hang enticingly in its middle-distance, beckoning ever closer attention for the clarity they might allow. A complex complexion of sounds and feels, one thing’s for certain … this one will be catching you for many a sundown to come.
