all in 1 place

We're glad to introduce one of our sonic allies to the LÍO Press series - because if there's something we stand for is diversity of sounds when it comes to dancefloor context. 4:45 by Katza gives the perfect example with a selection of atmospheric vocals, mechanic dub, hip hop cuts and beyond.

Katza is co-founder of PARALELOAN events, a DJ based in Bilbao who has spent half his life exploring the margins of music. Although today many associate him with electronic club music scene, he started playing in punk bands when he was very young - and that is something that comes out when he chooses the songs to make people dance. Relying on contemporary club music, post-punk, dub and DIY quirks, Katza values immediacy, urgency and emotion in the sounds he selects above all else.

N.O#37 - Gues MIX - Katza @ktz

Crujen las melodías, se inicia otra experiencia. Una vez más, hablamos entre nosotras de que sus mixes, son vivencias muy especiales.  Katza es un gran selector, llega a profundidades loquisimas en sus búsquedas de donde rescata rarezas que, en sus mezclas, adquieren una presencia diferente. Si conocías algo de lo que pone, de repente, es diferente por el espacio en el que lo sitúa. Si no lo conocías, se convierte en algo a lo que atender y que necesitas volver a escuchar para asimilar. Esto es muy bonito y especial. Estos experimentos que vivimos juntxs, nuestro cuerpo ya los ha registrado , y sabe, y nos mantiene alerta, en todos los sentidos, a lo que pasa cerca suyo.
Muchas gracias Katza.

“Nos gusta el eclecticismo. La amplitud de miras”

Es la frase que define a la perfección tanto las fiestas del colectivo Paraleloan, como el #postcast que nos firma uno de sus responsables. Silent Servant, Powell, Marcelus Pittman, Actress o Rezzet… son solo alguno de los nombres que han pasado por su escenario y que demuestran su capacidad a la hora de llevar una coherencia con la programación, que además saben conjugar con una linea de diseño sobria pero no por ello menos atendida.

Katza y Egoitz consiguen generar en sus fiestas el ambiente perfecto para una “noche de club”, su público disfruta de la atmósfera ideal en la que te olvidas de todo lo superfluo para centrarte en ese ritual colectivo llamado baile. Y es precisamente eso lo que consiguió abriendo la noche de Post Club #37 y que ha sintetizado en estos 75 minutos de set.

Pandemian eman den soinuen erakusketa bat da Etxetik. Euskal Herria osoko DJek, Dabadaban ohiko direnak, egindako nahasketak. Hau da 2020ko hilabete haietan gure buruek entzuten zutena.

Etxetik is a selection of sounds IN the pandemic, a collection of mixes made by djs from the whole Basque Country, all of them regulars at Dabadaba's booth. This is how our heads sounded back in 2020.

Katza @ Dabadaba (Etxetik, sonidos en la pandemia #1)

Discos Capablanca Takeover on Mutant Radio: next in line Katza, Bilbao’s post punk bona fide and co-founder of Paraleoan.

Katza [Discos Capablanca Takeover 2]

“I recorded this mix the morning of 14th of june, with an specific image in mind. I wanted to recreate the feeling of transcendence and stillness i felt during the earnest days of confinement, a solemnity i find quite easy to find in nature but no so much in cities. I hope you find the perfect moment to dive into it.”

Katza (@ktz) is a co-founder of PARALELOAN, he is a DJ based in Bilbao that has spent half of his life exploring the margins of muisc. Although today many can relate his sets to dance music, he started playing in punk bands when he was younger - that became a remarkable influence for him when picking the tracks to make people dance. Relying on both contemporary club music, such as post-punk, dub, or more DIY oddities, Katza values first of all the immediacy, urgency and emotion sounds selects.
