 | | Description: | Blood Is Clean is an album by Valet, released in 2007. The album is a pop CD. - 'Blood is Clean' is the debut release by HONEY OWENS under the name Valet. Honey wanted to make music that was not necessarily of her, but rather "to be a medium channeling sounds from an unknown place, opening up and spilling out onto the computer-tape." the cryptic, mesmerizing sound palette was inspired by "lucid dreams and physical artifacts that hinted at a sound-world of Haitian Voodoo drumming, various shamanic dreamtime music's, the VELVET UNDERGROUND, and the 'Fourth-World' concepts of JON HASSELL". We will just say that these are some of the most inspiring alien-psychedelic-blues -jams that we have heard in ages. And check out the absolutely fried guitar work from the outer edge of the galaxy on the title cut.The first seven tracks were released on CD-R by the Yarnlazer label in 2006.

The album unfolds as a quietly intense journey through minimal, atmospheric soundscapes that hover between experimental folk, slowcore and ambient textures. Sparse guitar figures, subtle noise elements and distant vocals blend into a hypnotic, almost dreamlike continuum, making this CD ideal for deep listening sessions. Rather than relying on conventional song structures, "Blood Is Clean" builds emotional tension through repetition, space and timbre, inviting the listener to sink into its intimate, nocturnal mood. It is a work that rewards patience, revealing new details with every spin and standing out as a distinctive entry in the realm of experimental and drone-influenced music.
Valet is an experimental music project centered around slow, immersive compositions that favor texture and atmosphere over immediate hooks. The artist behind Valet has become known in the underground for a subtle, carefully layered sound that draws from drone, ambient and lo-fi indie traditions. With "Blood Is Clean", Valet refined this aesthetic into a cohesive statement, earning recognition in avant-garde and indie circles for the project's ability to fuse fragility and intensity. The music's restrained dynamics and organic sound design have made Valet a reference point for listeners seeking introspective, boundary-pushing guitar-based experimentation.
Kranky, the label behind this release, is a Chicago-based independent imprint with a strong reputation in experimental, ambient and post-rock music. Since the 1990s, Kranky has been associated with artists who explore slow-burning atmospheres, drones and innovative sound design, often blurring the lines between rock, electronic and contemporary composition. The label is respected for its carefully curated catalogue, long-term artist relationships and high production standards, making any Kranky release a mark of quality for fans of adventurous, deeply immersive music. | | | No. of tracks: |
