davey, the solo project of Vallis Alps' David Ansari, today officially releases his self-titled debut EP.

An amorphous project that encompasses subterranean techno ('N.I.4.N.I', 'SOIL FOR THE ORCHIDS'), industrial hip hop ('NOT ME ft. Sol'), deconstructed glitch pop ('CONTROL 2002', 'LIFE OF PIG'), cathartic, soul-infused house ('I Fall feat. Aalok Bala') and more. Feeling burnt out from years of touring and multiple transcontinental moves, the project began taking shape when Ansari returned to the studio, loosely playing around with beats as he learned how to have fun with music again.
