about

A rare feat for a well-versed hand that has helped shape an island’s electronic music scene and now DJs from a pedestal, Valeron’s 2022 album Aroma frames Greece’s diverse musical history through a contemporary lens and acts as a testament to the current collaborative milieu of the island — a dance between Mediterranean and Middle Eastern instruments, all acoustic and recorded live, with the Mykonos native‘s hovering hand on mixers and synths.

The album is a passionate ode to the musical heritage of the Cyclades from a personal perspective, which comes as no surprise to Valeron's admirers. “There is nothing more beautiful than the sound of music and the aroma of its soul. To inhale is to capture, to experience”.

This idea has implications concerning how the human mind works, with aroma being one word that we've coined to describe how we perceive what's around us, with its roots in the Late Latin for spice. We take in our surroundings and relay relevant information to the brain through our senses. Is it possible for music to have an aroma, or for the imagination to perceive it in that way? The answer to that question could be entirely subjective, with Valeron’s response being an emphatic “I will” to the Shakespearean musing still universally pondered: “If music be the food of love, play on.”
