As the first katharsis release of 2022, we present you the debut EP “Distance” by  Rome-based artist chantssss. This release frames a deep introspection for the listener by exhibiting a granular sound collage based mainly on aquatic sounds but also on solid objects broken up to tiny pieces until they transform into a liquid semi-percussive state. 

Throughout the four tracks of the EP, we are enveloped by a transforming layer of fluid noise, that momentarily resembles the slithering of a snake, which is also graphicly represented by the artist alias. This is no coincidence, as the artist is connected to this theme by their experience of being bitten by a viper while capturing aquatic field recordings in the mountains.

On “Distance”, chantssss premieres his artistic expression by employing intertwining multi-sensory atmospheres of nature combined with generative synthesis and field recordings. The single “Your Next Online Healing” will be premiered on the 3rd of February, a week before the full EP releases on February 10th.

The 40th release of katharsis is the EP “Life is Hard” by Malle Voss coming out on April 10th. Following up on his debut release “Death is Easy” on Blue Tapes from 2022, the artist expands his musical pilgrimage into pure and spiritual affection in chaotic and dark territory. By using emotion in a structural way, the 6 tracks portray deep truths of overcoming struggle and turning nonsense into meaning. The tracks work like dark botanical angel artifacts, each with its rituals and prayers of death motivation and enlightenment through hardship. The range of sentiments covers everything from both beauty and joy to aggression and ecstasy, in its messy-by-design style of maximalist minimalism.

"Phanto plastilina" is a plasticine representation of a synthetic jungle
where impossible insects tell each other secrets,
accompanied by pixel toads and prankster dolphins.
Their gibberish comes to life thanks to granular synthesis of cfolle
on super collider and recorded noises from life and the net.
