Ian Blevins is from England but he’s quite the dude. This is his first offering for the ESP Institute. On side A, meet the happy beast named 'Hannibal', a big room tune that ticks every box your heart may desire — bone dry drum production, atmospheric arpeggios, soaring strings and pads, a beautifully sweeping bass progression and an overall sense of euphoria; goosebumps guaranteed. On side B, 'Welcome Aunt Poly' cools us down a little bit — stripping back the instrumentation, minimizing any superfluous effects, and layering a sparse bassline and droning synths over a laidback 808 — all to a relaxed tempo. Blevins’ debut proves that from the right point of view, familiar elements and motifs can take on a new life whilst reminding us just how the rave can feel. These two songs will increase your serotonin levels.

Based in the UK and a resident at Natural Selection, EKATA carves out sonic worlds that are defined by a dark, sci-fi undercurrent and a cinematic vision of Electro, Techno, Acid & EBM.

With releases on AVOIDANT (Soma Records) and memorable sets at legendary venues like TRESOR, FOLD, UNFOLD, E1, Shambala Festival, About:Blank, Kilométre25, Fanzine Festival and Loone, she continues to cement a distinct presence in the underground electronic scene. 

Her work has resonated with visionary names in the electro world, earning praise and support from influential figures like Anthony Rother, Umwelt, The Advent, Andrea Parker, and Plant43 to name a few.

EKATA forges a sound steeped in dystopian atmospheres and mechanical intensity, where metallic textures and industrial rhythms collide with raw emotional depth - crafting immersive sonic landscapes that are as evocative as they are propulsive. 

Whilst being heavily influenced by Detroit, she's a dedicated selector with sharp instincts and a fearless, uncompromising artistic vision. EKATA delivers sets that are powerful, transportive, and deeply resonant.
