Valley Of The Sun Publishing's

About

Valley Of The Sun Publishing was a cassette-based independent label operating primarily during the late 1970s through 1990s, specializing in experimental audio material focused on therapeutic and consciousness-altering applications. The label's catalog demonstrates a distinctive approach to sound design, blending elements of ambient music, binaural beats, and early new age experimentation with more avant-garde sonic exploration. Their releases, including The Beat To Theta Tape (1978), Healing Acceleration With Body Relaxation And Music (1981), and Hypnogogic Sound / Vibration Tape (1982), represent early experiments in psychoacoustic music and subliminal audio production. The label's output reflects the intersection of underground experimental music and alternative wellness culture prevalent in the 1970s and 1980s. By the 1990s, Valley Of The Sun Publishing continued exploring subliminal messaging and positive affirmation audio with releases like Only Subliminals - Confidence & Positive Thinking (1990). While not widely documented in mainstream music histories, the label's body of work contributed to the broader experimental and fringe audio scenes, predating many contemporary developments in dark ambient and electronic experimentation.
