⟡ Prenons soin les uns des autres ⟡

La fête est un espace de liberté, de partage et de rencontre. Pour que chacun puisse vivre le festival dans les meilleures conditions, nous avons besoin de l’attention et de la bienveillance de tous.

La Vallée Électrique Radio ✨

This year, the valley also resonates beyond the stages, through a space dedicated to listening, broadcasting and collective sound exploration.

Throughout the festival, La Vallée Électrique Radio will host live sessions, conversations, DJ sets, spontaneous takeovers and sonic journeys, weaving together the voices and frequencies that shape the experience of the valley 🎧

A place to tune in, slow down, and drift between what is happening now and what is being shared in real time.

From intimate mixes to live transmissions, from artist talks to unexpected encounters, the radio becomes a parallel stage, one that you don’t watch, but inhabit through sound.

Stay close, stay tuned, and let the valley speak 💛

⟡ La Vallée Électrique - Saturday night ⟡

Since 2012, Malte Schumann, aka Caldera, has been producing and perfecting his own brand of percussive, bass- and dub-tinged contemporary techno. His highly refined sound converges in the liminal space between the synthetic and the organic; a delicate balance between two distinctly contrasting forces that generates an immersive, psychedelic ecosystem of sound.

Martinou’s formula couldn’t be clearer: if it doesn’t engage him emotionally, he won’t
play it. The Swedish producer, DJ, and live performer creates multilayered music that
works its way into the heart and mind, sometimes bold and heavy, other times
blissful and introspective. This quality, honed over 20 years, has made him a key
figure in the Scandinavian scene and a globally respected name with appearances at Festival, Georgia’s , and a highly anticipated performance at Stone Techno in July 2026.

Rooted in deep and abstract sounds, Javier Salazar operates through a lens of reduction. As the founders of , the duo strips sound down to its essential rhythms and textured interference. Their work, released on and their own imprint, navigates between low-frequency pulses and what remains silent between the clicks.

It all reportedly started ten years ago, in the valley you all know so well. Legend has it that the two sidekicks decided to combine their records to share a set for an entire afternoon, even though they had never met before. They also say that before that day, neither of them had ever played in public. It was the beginning of a long and beautiful collaboration.

A lot of water has flowed under the bridge since then, and many projects have come to life on both sides (LVE,, .no, .ssss …), reducing their opportunities to share the decks. That being said, their friendship and shared passion for deep music have remained absolutely intact to this day.

Their reunion in the valley where it all began promises to be fantastic !

This year, the valley will once again be inhabited by artists, makers, facilitators and curious minds, inviting you to play, create, explore and connect throughout the weekend.

🎳 Melifera’s wooden games will take over the chill-out area with six installations combining skill, strategy and teamwork.

🕹️ With Joystick Techno, also by Melifera, four controllers each take charge of an instrument within a techno track.

🌱 Join Le Chêne Ambulant for an ethnobotanical walk through the valley, discovering wild plants, their uses and the stories they carry.

🌿 Learn how to weave cordage from dried iris leaves and transform it into bracelets — or anything else your imagination inspires.

🧘 Through postures, breathing exercises and relaxation techniques, yoga sessions offer a moment to reconnect with the body and the living world around us.

🍃 In *soft cryptogamic drifts*, .o.s.s.s opens spatio-temporal portals into micro-universes shaped by q***r ecologies, somatic practices and DIY aesthetics, inviting participants to become “cryptogamers” alongside their plant allies.

Gaspard Polar invites listeners to immerse themselves in a world where listening, feeling and imagination take on their full meaning. Between meditative atmospheres, hypnotic sounds and deep rhythms, he explores in his own way the notion of « storytelling music »

Present in mythological tales, rituals and revered throughout the ages, the tree, a symbol of memory and fertility, is a gateway to spirituality.

Hailing from Yerevan, Armenia, Innersha is a producer and live artist who has created a fresh and sophisticated perspective on contemporary live techno. Her sound is a dense constellation of IDM intricacies, celestial textures, and deep techno grooves that drift effortlessly into the depths of mind-altering psychedelia. This unique sonic signature has already led to visionary live sets at revered institutions including Bassiani, Berghain’s Säule, and Refractor, alongside multiple performances at Mo:Dem Festival.

───

Solarythm has been crafting immersive electronic journeys for over a decade. Emerging from the psytrance scene with a live project, his sound has gradually evolved toward deep, mental, progressive, and techno landscapes, always driven by a strong hypnotic and trance energy. Rejecting rigid boundaries between genres, he has developed a hybrid approach centered on the dance floor and storytelling, both in DJ sets and live performances.

───

Uman Yazar blends modular textures and organic rhythms to create captivating and mystical atmospheres.

───

Svarog is a techno artist whose project has undergone a visible and deliberate collapse of its original mythology. Releases on Semantica, Dynamic Reflection, Affin, and Nachtstrom Schallplatten outline this previous phase — a period in which depth was achieved through concept.

Today, Svarog operates from a different point:
as an accumulation of experience, and its transformation into sound.
Hypnotic structures, tension, and a flow of sound without the need to construct a narrative.

Svarog is no longer a character or a mythology.
This transformation leaves the project in an undefined space — between intention and inertia, control and surrender.

A rising star on the Lyon scene, Mastaï explores the percussive rhythms of jungle, footwork, bass music, dembow and UKG.
Heavy basslines, flashes of acid and a sassy voice: these are the building blocks of the tracks she devours.

───

Liya Tesfaye is a project built around broken beats and a highly percussive approach, creating intense and immersive atmospheres.
As a member of the Lyon-based crew .records, she explores minimalist territories, and offers a world that blends UK bass, dub and atmospheric sounds, where contrasts take centre stage.

Founder of and member of the LVE tribe, natural limit distills an
addictive musical vision. Trained in consciousness awakening, his dj-sets aim to conjure up old feelings experienced somewhere deep in a forest, or in a space surrounded by people you love. Perhaps both. Sensory music navigating through different known worlds, for a psychedelic journey between dream and reality.

───

Founder of .deep and resident of , Neuron No. 3 is a project envisioned as a cerebral exploration, where every sound is a synapse seeking to transmit information. The temperature oscillates, the journey advances: between the roundness of dub and the groove of the club, spaces hybridize and boundaries blur. The tempo shifts, the path evolves, the rhythm adapts, and the story unfolds. At the end of the tunnel, a glimmer awaits.

The idea of Sauvage Dub Trio emerged on a summer afternoon, deep in a valley. It fit entirely within a glass of farigoule: composing dub-techno with two producers, a bassist, and a collective chemistry. The harmonies float like heat over the stones. This first live set shapes the light, psychedelic color of Sauvage Dub Trio.

Organic, hypnotic, telluric…each set is designed as an experience that occasionally questions, but always speaks from the deep.

A few weeks after its release, I’m sharing some excerpts from Outreciel.

This EP was shaped by a fascination with wild, open spaces and the emotions they can evoke: uncertainty, solitude, wonder, and peace.

Thank you to everyone who has already taken the time to listen and support the release.

Outreciel is available on Bandcamp and all streaming platforms.

.als (Paris, France)

A deep journey through the blurred 135–140 BPM spectrum, where deep techno, psytrance, bass music and slowed-down tribe textures gently merge. A fluid, instinctive mix driven by movement and dancefloor energy from start to finish.

This year, Solma will also perform a B2B with Bobby Watson for the opening night of the 10-year anniversary of La Vallée Électrique Festival.

The visuals use cyanotypes made from plants collected on-site at La Vallée Électrique Festival, a process orchestrated by , extending its atmosphere into an organic visual form.
