Dexter Story inner
NEW ALBUM RELEASE (February 13, 2026): Dexter Story Inner
“Fortunately, something always remains to be harvested. So, let us not be idle.” Gustav Mahler…
Inner, an experimental electronic album from Dexter Story produced by music curator and creative director Rani de Leon. The record is built as an inward journey — reflective, playful, and personal — guided by memory, instinct, and trust. The cover, a collage of childhood photographs, traces a line from early imagination to the present moment, honoring the quiet continuity of growth and becoming. This digital release is on Dexter Story’s independent label MAI Recordings, an acronym for music, art and inspiration. “I am releasing this independently as a gesture of gratitude and connection, and as a gentle prelude to my forthcoming album with SOUNDWAY RECORDS arriving in summer 2026. Thank you for walking with me, for listening deeply, and for the encouragement you have offered over the years. It means more than I can fully express.” Click the image to be led to Bandcamp where you can purchase the record and / or click the second link to donate to the manufacturing of the vinyl for Inner. Available on Bandcamp.com on and after February 13, 2026.
DEXTER STORY PRODUCES ETHIOPIAN LEGEND DR. MULATU ASTATKE’S NEW STRUT RECORDS RELEASE “MULATU PLAYS MULATU” (SEPT 2025)
“Sure, there are albums out there that are flashier, more obviously innovative, or aggressively experimental. But "Wenge" doesn’t need to shout to make its point. Instead, it invites you in with quiet authority, offering a deeply rewarding, meditative experience for those patient enough to listen. Just like the Wenge tree itself, this music stands firm, offering shelter, wisdom, and a connection to something larger than ourselves.”
