Scandinavian Funk from a Scandinavian Hunk 😳🤦
I made this EP in the spirit of the sound of early 00's, funky and bouncing hardgroove techno. ⚒️
I've played all these three tracks out for months and they seem to do the trick each time. It's the first release on Absence of Facts for 2023 and sets the tone for this year's releases. Hope you like it!🙏
The next part, Scandinavian Funk II will be out in a few months time. And in June my debut EP on AnalyticTrail will be complementing this sound, too.💎
"Kat's out of the bag." 😼
Playing @ KitKat, Berlin in June '23.

“For this DT:Premiere we selected the opening track “Piru” which is a thundering jam. Raw and driving, its energetic and jackin’ style is aimed at moving the dance floor, while oozing quality from precise, stabbing tones and spacey analogue textures that add looming tension to this functional club spinner.”
