KATABATIK KOLLEKTION

awepittance · July 11, 2010

My friend just released the 2nd compilation for his label Katabatik. It's a very nice selection of dark electronic tracks made mostly on hardware. Lot's of female vocals and vocoders. Fans of minimal wave would probably be very into it but i think this is better than most of the new stuff i've heard like it. Most of the artists reside in the San Francisco bay area.

I am typically the kind of person that doesn't listen to new music unless by chance, or a friend forces me to. For some reason, I clicked d/l with the full intention of listening and even streamed a couple tracks. What does it all mean? Anyhow, this is wicked from the little I've heard so far.

isn't this a name of a wisp track ?...

*clueless*

It's also a word. Something is katabatic if it is caused by a wave of cold air. Something is anabatic if it is caused by a wave of hot air. It generally refers to the weather.

**YEK** · July 12, 2010

i see.

ummmmm, I know it was a joke but don't let this statement dissuade anyone from grabbing this. It's quality.

that's what made me enter this thread in the first place!

awepittance · July 13, 2010

isn't it the name of the wisp ep that has tracks on shimmering hour?

anyways yeah it's the same word and the dudes from the Katabatik label are all from Alaska where you can experience literal katabatik winds.

i was half joking when i said goth, but there are plenty of industrial/shoegaze/goth indie music fans on this board that i think would really appreciate this. Besides Weird Records there aren't very many collectives doing this kind of sound

Downloaded - will listen on the bus ride home :)

Probably 15 years too late, but just wanted to note that this is a pretty enjoyable compilation. Only a couple less than optimal tracks but even then definitely listenable.

**posture** · July 27, 2010

Hooray for free music. Hope it's good.

so there is a new Fall Katabatik collection and in my opinion it's even better than the 1st one. Almost 2 hours long and very diverse in comparison. Lots of instrumental electronic stuff this time around
