GATELY KATIE Fawn / Brute

Popis:

American experimental musician and producer Katie Gately is up to mischief on her new album Fawn / Brute, 11 songs of innocence and experience exploring the light and dark of childhood energy following the birth of her first daughter. It is an album of two halves, that moves from the effervescence of early years to the defiance and turbulence of teenage angst. When I got pregnant, I had a lot of energy at first, but later on, my pregnancy was stressful and worrying, so the music got darker and darker: I was making angry music while I was supposed to be feeling maternal." The album is dedicated to her young daughter Quinn, born in 2021 – the track 'Fawn' is a love letter to her. In typical maverick style, Gately plundered cartoon sound libraries magpie-like to build signature nests of sounds, integrating her own idiosyncratic sound recording strategies and sampling techniques, from shoeboxes to theremin and with a boisterous recurring saxophone. Katie is also an in-demand producer, who worked on Serpentwithfeet’s LP, Soil, and has produced and remixed for both Björk and Zola Jesus, with Björk. Katie was also part of Mary Anne Hobbs' curated ‘Queens of the Underground’ Festival in Manchester alongside Houndstooth artist Aisha Devi and is currently teaching at Calarts and USC’s School of Cinematic Arts.
