Kate Stein - Scenic Byway 
with remixes by 
Perel and Zillas On Acid

Australian born artist Kate Stein joins Roam Recordings with an absolutely stunning debut of psychedelic dance floor thrillers in the Scenic Byway EP. The original title track is a perfect hypnotic jaunt that makes us dream of the clubs and festivals we so miss. Complemented by stellar remixes, Perel takes on the first one and proves once again that she is a master of epic cosmic italo infused disco. Zillas on Acid keeps the slightly dark yet fun and quirky vibes going in their lovely rendition. Rounding out the EP is Kate Stein’s original Side Winder that offers an unassuming journey that builds and moves and is easy to get pleasantly lost within. 

Release Date: March 27th, 2021

PREMIERE | Kate Stein - Side Winder [Roam Recordings] 2021

A long walk was at the apex of most days; sometimes the route was the same, sometimes they took a punt. That was the beauty of living in the countryside, there was a never-ending supply of nature to explore. Of course, the woodland walks and far-reaching cornfields had become familiar after all these years of living here, but every now and then they'd stumble upon a hidden paradise.

Hot on the heels of Daniel Monaco & Sauvage World's EP earlier this month, San Francisco's Roam Recordings welcome Australian-born, New York-based producer Kate Stein. Marking her debut release, 'Scenic Byway' offers two original cuts that display Kate's knack for crafting hypnotic melodies and low rumbling bass lines, backed up by two remixes on the flip from Perel and Zillas On Acid.

Release Info: 
Australian producer Kate Stein brings her mesmerising sounds to TAU with the Death Stocked EP, her debut with us. Currently based between New York City and Los Angeles, Kate merges a variety of styles to produce captivating cuts that embody the ethos of dance floor liberation and self-expression. A confident performer who has appeared at House of Yes, Mayan Warrior and Cityfox Experience at Brooklyn Mirage, among many other notorious spots, Kate is also carving out her own lane with her productions. On Death Stocked we get two original cuts, with a bumper selection of reworks...

The EP kicks off with scintillating energy, as 'Dome Brain' lures us into Kate's sonic web. Pulsating disco noir rhythms combine with pumping beats and a cacoph- ony of rousing effects and triggers, to create a stirring atmosphere. Twisted acid disco for the dance floor diehards.

Next up, Curses steps in with two remixes. The first, 'Metallic Dub', ramps up the potency of the beats in conjunction with a raucous low end. A sweet riff takes centre stage as the track progresses, Curses shrouding the original with his dark wave aesthetic. This is followed by the 'Spectre In the Dance Remix', where he opts for a more sombre interpretation.

The title cut 'Death Stocked' works off an undulating low end, throbbing and juddering, while crisp claps and shakers act as a catalyst for involuntary body move- ment. Kate creates an immersive atmosphere juxtaposing a bright melody with the morose bassline. As the track reaches its conclusion more elements are added to increase its uplifting appeal, taking you the highest heights.

Zombies In Miami roll out the first rework, taking it into more menacing territory. An insistent riff is complemented by layers of melancholy synth and mournful melody, amplifying the track's emotive impact.

Finally, Leonor closes out the release with his spinetingling rework. Taking the uplifting melody from the original, he takes us on an expedition to a higher vibra- tional field, where good vibes and positive energy are ubiquitous.

Hump The Night [Kate Stein Edit]

After months of spinning ideas, jamming instruments and carving out musical sweetness across multiple countries, finally this gem has arised from ether! Enjoy 'Maggot Monday' by FUNBOYS & ACKERMAN and the remix of @katesteinnyc.

FUNBOYS & ACKERMAN's EP opens with the mind-bending psychedelic rave anthem 'Maggot Monday'. The remix by Fucanglong Files head honcho ALF CHAMPION and his buddy MDHNTR infuses the original with experimental beats hitting deep from Mexican hyperspace. Hyperloop jump forward to 'Be A Jedi'! With its mysterious tones, bouncy beats and again beautiful live vibe; this power tune masterfully pulls you on the dance floor like a tractor beam. Not unlike JUSTINE FOREVER (Deux Control, Club Forever), who adds her aural force to 'Be a Jedi‘ with a beautiful edit! 'The Best Start of the Week' continues with 'Duro Direzzi'. What a banging journey! Its rich texture, tribal elements and punchy rhythms builds up a big cloud of joy until it explodes. Until finally KATE STEIN transforms the original into an enchanting dance hit. Enjoy a mesmerizing auditory experience that showcases the exceptional skills of the artists behind the EP.

Funboys & AckerMan - Duro Direzzi (Kate Stein Remix)

Mateo Gonzales. In Mexico, even children know his name. One of the most versatile Latin American producers, known for his monikers Bufi, Theus Mago and Sonido Phantasma, one of the co-founders of Duro Label, he released a huge amount of music on such labels as Electrique Music, Kitsune, Discotexas, Platino, My Favorite Robot, Turbo Records etc, he is one of the pioneers of the Mexican modern electronic scene.
This is not his first collaboration with Los Angeles  producer Missy Livingston aka Moderna (known for her work with Ghostly International), at the beginning of last year they recorded together a powerful EP on Chloe's Kill The DJ.

This time they are released on another French, Marseille's label La Dame Noir. The new EP includes 3 original mixes plus remixes from Sebastian Voigt and a remix from the Mateo Gonzalez himself under one of his monikers - Bufi, which we are happy to present to you today.
Moderna & Theus Mago - Tecno Misogino (Bufi Remix) - a dancefloor-worthy groove monster, anchored by a funky, but menacing bassline with vocal cuts and a catchy guitar loop, rework that bringing original into a chugging, low slung
prowler with raw biker disco percussion. 
Yet again here La Dame Noir have served up a fresh modern dark disco package that packs real heat. Enjoy

7. Younger than me released the highly acclaimed Warning Code EP last year. They also remixed Curses - Her Violence Beauty, so he returned the favor and remixed the title track. Curses added his touch to the Machine Psychedelia of the original. They are an italian duo out of Milano. The production is inspired by Italo Disco, Post-Disco ,
New-Wave , House and Electronic Music with the inevitable 80's twist.

Younger Than Me - Warning Code (Curses remix)

Kate Stein and Lord Fascinator have been partying and playing together for years at parties in New York and excited to finally have their names side by side on a piece of music. 
Beyoğlu was the original opening track for Fascinator’s album Water Sign. Cut at the last minute it found it’s way on to a chewing gum commercial which then turned into a Hungarian meme. He decided to release it in June enlisting Kate Stein and Die Orangen on remix duties.
