Valentina Magaletti is a drummer-composer and multi-instrumentalist with an inventive approach to drums and percussion. Her versatile technique, which can incorporate anything from vibes and marimba to contact microphones and found objects, results in a style that is forever evolving. Feeling just as comfortable performing behind a delicate ceramic kit as she does hammering out motorik rhythms, her creative take on percussion has resulted in a diverse discography and many interesting collaboration. She’s released music on labels such as AD93, Editions Mego, The Trilogy Tapes, Longform Editions, Latency, Fire Records, Soundway and many more.
Current projects include duos with electronic artists Nídia and upsammy, inventive post-hardcore group Moin, heavy dub combo Holy Tongue, jazz pop trio Vanishing Twin, among others. Her list of collaborators feels endless: members of Radiohead, This Heat and Wire, Cate Le Bon, Floating Points, Jandek, Pat Thomas, Deb Googe, Thurston Moore, Lafawndah, Mica Levi, Sampha, Kamasi Washington and Nicolas Jaar, to name a few. In 2017, Valentina participated in The Can Project, standing in for the late Jaki Liebezeit, at London’s Barbican Centre.
