ghost town side A

The 16th release of katharsis is the EP “Internal Presence” by the label founder, jjjacob. This EP is the follow-up and counterpart to his earlier release on the label “Journey Before Destination” which came out half a year before on March 8th. On this release, jjjacob returns to his usual uncompromising electronic sound after exploring more minimalistic and acoustic facets of his musical expression on the preceding EP. By blending uncanny choirs and obscure samples with peculiar synths and IDM-inspired drums, jjjacob’s melodic universe brings the listener on a sonic adventure into a fantasy-infused world.

While “Journey Before Destination” sought to explore the heroic struggles of a poignant pilgrimager, “Internal Presence” examines the magical sensations and daunting emotions of otherworldly transformations. Starting from the grandiose trance-infused intro anthem “Shapeshifter”, the EP quickly develops into the curious yet introverted exploration of an exquisite domain on “Realm of Essence”. Following this, immense feelings and existential contemplations are presented through ethereal harps and hymns of lost spirits on “Lethal Sentiment”, before angelic creatures serenade about the destination of our eternal journey on the closing track “Terminal Bliss”.

The 23rd release of katharsis is the collaborative album “Brutal Nature” by label founder jjjacob and various other artists. The idea of the project, which has been in progress for several years, was to extend the artistry to a more conversational form than the classic introverted style of the electronic music composer. The album shaped itself through several exchanges of ideas and stems between jjjacob and the numerous artists of the project.

The final product of the collaborations has a common theme of finding solace in the darkness and brutality of nature. This could be exemplified by the deep melancholy infused with an inner peace of losing a loved one in the mourning song “Threnody” with Hajj, or in the overcoming and healing of both internal and external wounds by the catharsis of music and art on the eloquent track “Trauma” with Bungalovv and Odete. As an introduction to the album, jjjacob and the local Beham created an auditory interpretation of self-blame with movie samples and abrasive low-end explosions, and to conclude it jjjacob and Slikback created the bass-heavy club lullaby “Bonum Nocte”.

The album follows jjjacob's previous two EPs on katharsis from last year, “Journey Before Destination” and “Internal Presence”, but it is his first full-length album since “Body Without Organs” released on the Spanish label Sweat Taste in 2020. The album artwork is a collaboration between jjjacob and Emil Stephensen, with the main motive being a painting by the latter.

lyrics 


I love a bad situation
Don't stop girl it's amazing
I'm in the club with a bratz doll
I look like ryu from street fighter
I coulda been inside that,
I kinda wanna try that

Hair on my arm so you know it's South Asia
I'm in London so I fuck with the Bengalis
My bitch is from Sri Lanki

I'm in Holloway smoking gas on the balcony
Wondering what the fuck, what the fuck has happened to me
I love a bad situation
Give me something worse, I can take it
Man, fuck all that stable obligation shit
All I want is a crisis and a bad bitch
All I want is a crisis and a bad bitch
All I want is a crisis and a bad bitch

yeah, Drama, drama
call your ma-ji, mama
cause Symrun is dropping heat in summer, summer

I love a bad situation
Don't stop girl it's amazing
I'm in the club with a bratz doll
I look like ryu from street fighter
I coulda been inside that,
I kinda wanna try that

Hair on my arm so you know it's South Asia
I'm in London so I fuck with the Bengalis
My bitch is from Sri Lanki
Korri (girl) wan massage me
Yes I'm Punjabi

You think I give a fuck about the shit on the internet?
I'm just making tracks to make you shake in the Deva set
I was in Radford, I was in Grimsby
Coulda got arranged marriage when I was 15
Coulda got arranged marriage gorri (white girls) gonna miss me
Pulled up in a range rover rapping over sick beats

Recorded July 2022 in Holloway, London

et des fois tu me vois juste pas comprendre
traverser la rue en regardant devant moi
j veux pas savoir de quoi sera fait demain 
on s tient la main on ne fait qu'un 
et des fois j suis un enfant
j'aimerai n'etre qu'un enfant

Des petits bouts de toi en moi comme une étincelle
Ça s’en vas au matin
Quand la lune éteint le ciel
Jtai donné tt le temps de la terre
Moi j’comprends pas
Jte l’ai dit 1000 fois
Tu fais semblant dpas comprendre
Un petit pas de plus en arrière je tombe dans la dance

et g grave grave voulu m enfermer
et j pense a toi mon frere malade
ca aurai plus facile d etre mort né
a la place j me la colle et j me rend drame

tommy moisi 
elle m laisse en vu
elle repond pas a mes messages
c archi passif aggressif si j en veux plus demain j me taille
j vais faire tourner la machine j esquive la maladie mentale
et quand le monde pour une seconde n est que la lumiere d un vitrail
et quand j me kiffe j te kiss j ecris c automatique 
j ai pas dit un seul mot j suis bavard avec mon stylo bic
