Most of the news and updates about what we’ve been doing can be found on The Diary, Facebook, and MySpace. Check them all out to learn about:
Braxton and the Creative Process
The Atlanta Show in a few weeks
The new songs we’re working on (we have 3-4 seriously good ones in the works)
Sarah may check in with a book review or two
And we may be overhauling the website, again.
We know We also promised to add a Gallery a REALLY long time ago, but that might have to wait for a bit longer.
More updates always abound...
January 3, 2010
Happy New Year Everyone! Start things off with a new Valentine Wolfe Song...head on over to the Audio section to hear When Love Decays, our newest creation.
And if that weren’t enough to cause great joy and excitement...
We have more copies of Five Nocturnes available. If you’re nursing a broken heart over the fact you didn’t get any Valentine Wolfe for Christmas (or other applicable winter celebration), let not your heart be troubled. We have plenty of copies for you to get your hands on.
But this time, it’s going to cost you.
We’ll accept your undying devotion, your immortal soul, and $8.00 a copy. Send us an email if you want one. But don’t kid yourselves...of course you want one.

The Spanish Inquisition skit from Monty Python is one of our favorites-probably because on a certain level, we relate to it. Long time fans of the band will appreciate that it only took us three attempts to unveil...
The definitive version of Kissing Twilight, available now on our audio pages.
If you downloaded the other two, well, congratulations, you have collector’s items.
What’s new on this version? not that much (except some really smashing bits we did with KT Granulator, our favorite plug in).-we’ve just realized that to get a song 95% done doesn’t take us all that long, but the extra 5% does take some time.
Anyway, no, really, no foolies: final version up now, so listen and enjoy.
December 16
Kissing Twilight is now re-open! Download the version we like better. You can do that by going to the audio pages, and right clicking and whatnot. We use Macs, so we don’t right click, but i’m sure you’re all very smart, and can figure out how to have your very own copy of Kissing Twilight.
December 9
Kissing Twilight is closed for some minor repairs. All will be well soon.
December 6
Just a reminder that the diary has a new home: blog.valentinewolfe.com
Make sure to update your bookmarks. We’re currently working on releasing some more new songs, taking new pictures, and lining up some shows for late January/early February. The details of all these plans for world domination and more, can be found on the aforementioned blog.
December 1
Hopefully, the long wait between updates was well worth it. Kissing Twilight is available for your aural pleasure. You can find the newest Valentine Wolfe song in the Audio section, our Diary, and our MySpace. Lyrics are in the Lyrics section (clever, that).
Enjoy!
October Show Details...Scroll down to see the pretty pictures! More details on the diary, so click away at all our pretty links...

The Last of the Nocturnes...
Well, turns out we do have a small stash of Five Nocturnes left. If you’d like a copy, they are $7, $5 at a show. So, either wait until October 30 or 31st or a another later date, or email us here and tell us you want one.
September 26-Zombie Prom!
August 21: A handful of Live Shows!
Well, I can take the wraps off…we’re so excited, we might pop.
We have four live dates in the pipeline, 2 confirmed, 2 still working out the details. See the new Show Section for Full Details.
August 16: Dark Ambient Music...for free even!
We included these tracks in the bonus disk version of Five Nocturnes. We may have had these up online before, but never in this format, and never all of these tracks.
So...we're putting all of our ambient music online here in the audio section.
You can download all the tracks for free. Tracks 1-5 are solo double bass, looped in real time, with no overdubs. Much of the otherworldy textures are achieved using delay, granular synthesis, and reverb. Track 6, Music for Cloud 9, features Sarah on piano. After she laid down her track, I did layer and edit the piano part into something a bit more in the direction of unplayable weirdness.
Get them off our site--we won't be posting these on our other social networking pages.
August 9: Lyrics
Read them by clicking to your left. Enjoy!
August 7: Resistance Was Futile
Valentine Wolfe on Facebook
We’re on Facebook. A free copy Five Nocturnes can be yours if you’re one of our First Ten Fans there.
If you’ve requested a copy of Five Nocturnes, we’ll be mailing them out in the next few days
Ah, yes. The Diary has returned.
August 1:
We’re proud to announce the arrival of our latest creation, Five Nocturnes. The CD’s have arrived, and they look amazing. We will get around to posting the cover art soon.
If you want one, we need to know soon: we only have 100, and 7 are spoken for. Several have already gone out. We’ll be out and about giving even more of them to deserving souls, assuming they are, shall we say, inspiring enough for us to find them worthy.
So if you’d like some Valentine Wolfe of your very own, let us know by emailing us using the link at the bottom of the page. If you’re not local to Upstate South Carolina (Spartanburg, Greenville, Clemson, etc), an address would be very helpful so we know where to send it. Extra points if you upload it to a torrent website for us-that would make us happy.
Thanks for listening.
