Sending out echoes of jazz, electronica, ambient music and minimalism, Mercury Prize nominated Portico Quartet have created their own singular, cinematic sound over the course of five lauded studio albums and one EP.

From the band’s 2007 breakthrough Knee-Deep in the North Sea, and the John Leckie produced Isla in 2010, to the self-titled recording Portico Quartet in 2012, the heralded Art In The Age Of Automation in 2017 and the critically acclaimed Memory Streams in 2019, each album has seen the band expand its palate or explore new trajectories.

Emerging from the heart of Berlin’s club culture, Cats & Breakkies craft a sound that dissolves the boundaries between electronic rave and artful live performance. In spaces where DJs usually command the crowd, they bring pure musical presence — transforming the room into a shared emotional and physical experience. They merge machine and human, body and mind, analog warmth and digital precision — creating performances that feel like stepping into a living, breathing dancefloor organism. It’s trance-inducing club energy one might associate with Berlin or New York — only more alive, more expressive, more present. Their sound unfolds like the Pinot Noir of electronic music: warm, dark, elegant, and deeply nuanced. At times, it evokes a futuristic big band from the year 2140 — dynamic, hot-blooded, and full of character. Their music dances between electro, house, art rock, krautrock, fusion, and jazz heritage — inviting both deep immersion in sonic detail and total surrender to the groove. They don’t just perform — they build emotional journeys. Beats evolve over long arcs, anticipation rises, tension blooms, and crowds move together in a shared state of flow. Some listen deeply, others dance with abandon — and both are equally right.

In 2015, Cats & Breakkies presented their debut album Organic Electro in a showcase at Kantine am Berghain (Berlin, Germany). As an instrumental concept album, it became the band’s first major artistic statement, earning strong acclaim and expanding their fanbase across Germany and Europe. Their performances have been described as dynamic, mesmerizing, and powerful musical journeys. Their second album, Spectral (2018), broadened their sonic vision and consists of three distinct instrumental sets. In 2024, the band released their fully self-produced album New World, presented on their extensive 2024/2025 record release tour. A series of singles and remixes followed throughout 2025, further shaping their artistic direction. Their next release is scheduled for March 20, 2026, marking the next chapter in their evolving sonic identity.

"Cats & Breakkies: organic electro with soul — where technology meets humanity and the audience becomes part of the journey."
