The Mountain of Joy is a Valley of Despair Downside Up by Lorie Bevins Cassette Tape

Step into an inaka assemblage of international psychedelia with this iconoclastic and aesthetically charming release from Los Angeles-based label Cudighi Records. Written, recorded, produced, and mixed by B. Van den Eynden, this album bridges experimental, hypnotic synthpop across recordings from Antwerp, Belgium, and Carrara, Italy. Featuring the distinct vocals of F. Maris and a percussive mayonnaise contribution by L. Jacobs, it delivers a uniquely textured electronic-pop journey.

Perfect for fans of trippy, immersive soundscapes and avant-garde synth rhythms.
