Using a defiant combination of industrial picks and techno atmospheres, Scary Valentine presents unused renderings for the boundless electronic genre. Their creations emerge supported by bold and somber lyrical environments, upholding new meanings to electronica experientialism. Scot Gordon, the main craftsman behind Scary Valentine, was born in Japan and dedicated part of his life travelling along most of Europe and the Middle East searching for daring inspirations and measuring additional sound environments. Combining musical influences from acts such as Kraftwerk or Alien Sex Fiend, Gordon then joined forces with Shari Valenta, responsible for most of the duo's vocalizations. Valenta's experienced vocal training was the substantive addition for Valentine's dark ambient scenarios. Gorgon, the group's debut album, hit record stores in 1999, getting reasonable acclaim within fans of the genre. In 2001, Shades arrived as their second album.
