Mari Kattman - Year of the Katt
Electronic musician and vocalist Mari Kattman is known for her work as part of the duo Helix as well as being a solo artist in her own right. ‘Year Of The Katt’ is her debut full-length solo release for Metropolis Records (and third overall) and includes the recent singles 'Anemia' and 'Sharp Shooter'.
Of the album as a whole, she explains that “finishing it was a truly herculean effort. It is completely recorded, composed and produced by myself, so there were a lot of learning curves and things I needed to sort out before I was truly happy with the end product. I feel relief and enormously proud that I got it done.”
One of the most captivating artists on today’s electro-industrial scene, Kattman has been writing, recording, producing and performing since 2012. She has collaborated with the likes of Assemblage 23, Mesh, Ivardensphere, Jean-Marc Lederman, Psy’Aviah, Aesthetiche, Neuroticfish, BlackCarBurning, Cassetter, This Morn Omina, Solitary Experiments, Mephisto Walz, Aiboforcen, Interface, Comaduster and more.
Kattman's impressive resumé of vocal contributions for these acts bely her own talents as a songwriter and producer. Singles such as ‘Fever Shakes’, ‘URGOD.AI’ and ‘Swallow’ have already demonstrated her prowess in crafting hook-laden, irresistibly catchy electronic songs tailor-made for the dance floor, where elements of Trap, Hip Hop, Electro, Ambient, EBM and Industrial music interplay with her powerfully distinctive voice.
