Hara is carrying – besides her extrasensory abilities – a Universal understanding about music and like a modern shaman, she is weaving a thread between sound and space-time creating a metagalactic cosmos, bringing a sophisticated sonic palette and perceptive ear to dancefloors.
With an impressive, multi-disciplinary past within the creative industries, the former model, stylist and art director channels her abundant passion into intuitive, sensational mixes. It is no mystery that aside from DJing, she is a Quantum Healer. It is clear that Hara delicately weaves this approach into her selections, presenting an enticing and alluring journey mindful of its surroundings.
Carefully chosen, warming gems fill her sets which lie within the realms of Balearic, Cosmic and Italo Disco. Katsiki explores the darker side of these genres but is not limited to them, driving you into an encapsulating ethereal experience. Powerful acoustic percussion, warm growling basslines and shimmering synths are a constant. With the gifted ability to take you on an interstellar journey through time and space, Hara Katsiki propels you into her starlit world.

This mix is magnetically dark, sexy, full of shimmering synths. Last call and a perfect chance to catch the noir vibes 🌚 before some of us will jump into ugly sweaters and Christmas chants.

"We lost Curley way too early and at a point where he was about to become very well known. He had a unique talent but the thing that got me the most was that we were walking the same musical path. We had arranged to work together in the new year but we sadly lost him on new years eve. I was very lucky to have worked with him on the Sahara technique ep and several times in the Spiral Tribe Studio 23 when we were parked up in Den Haag 1993-94. I was most influenced by a record he did with Yan from Unit Moebius on a small label called Oxalis from near Paris. The record featured a flange/chorus being fed back on itself. I was blown away and have developed this sound ever since. You will hear it on this mix. I dedicate this mix to my fallen brother who i will carry in my heart forever and who I always think of before I start an improvisation !!!

Anyone who hears his music and and mine will understand why we are musical brothers."

Funeral Ecstasy pt.2 – The Simulation (Original Soundtrack) is the latest sonic chapter by Stefan ZMK as part of HipSick. This 13-track release is the score to the immersive performative installation that explores the theme of immortality; the hope, the fear, and the reality of the future where death may no longer exists.
Moving through layers of tension, distortion, and artificial calm, the music reflects a world where perception is manipulated and meaning constantly shifts. 
Featuring original score material, instrumental versions and bonus material like a deep-dive podcast, The Simulation pulls you into a soundscape that is unsettling, hypnotic, and strangely intimate.
This is not just a listening experience, it’s an invitation to drift between the programmed and the personal. Welcome to The Simulation.

Now available on Bandcamp, streaming platforms, and digital shops.
