Yet it is an EP full of sensitivity and emotion that Katuchat composes through 5 rich and complex titles.<\/p>\n<p>He explains: <em>&#8220;Hypertension is quite a special piece of the EP, it represents the whole excitement I had to create this project. It sounds like a distant music with very marked rhythm&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Katuchat, of his name Maxime, relates his personal history. Affected since his early age with an incurable disease the young French producer chooses music as executory.<\/p>\n<p>He transcribes his daily struggle, through his music instilling hope and positivity. Over the pieces he gradually, almost chronologically, bring us through his states of mind, from hy- pertension to spleen. His productions unstructured, agitated at the same time very calm, as a contained torpor, an implo- sion in depths. Katuchat\u2019s pieces are very detailed, between vaporous spreads and deep bass, few notes of pianos and aerial elements come across to complete an elusive melody.<\/p>\n<p>Beyond music, Maxime has worked an aesthetic also marked with his wounds, the scar on the back of his head, worn proudly, to hide nothing from the world, is the central element of his artwork.<\/p>\n<p><em>&#8220;Indelible and immutable, like a tattoo, this scar represents the way I had to learn to live with my illness by assuming the traces left externally and internally&#8221;,<\/em> he says.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Anesthesia&#8217; is a very personal musical project to express the acceptance of this disease, the consent to never really heal and the importance of keeping your head up.<\/p>\n<p>Katuchat\u00a0is a 24 years old French music producer. He made his debut on the music scene at the age of 20 with the EP &#8216;Lonely Cloud&#8217; in 2013, followed by &#8216;Lapis Lazuli&#8217; in 2016.<\/p>\n<p>Strongly influenced by artists such as Aphex Twin, Arca and Shlohmo, his rich and singular music surprises with its com- plexity. An impressive level of mastery from a young age, Ka- tuchat is part of the lineage of very promising young artists. Close the artists and founder of Roche Musique, C\u00e9zaire, he has made his entry into the label with his EP &#8216;Anesthesia&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u2018Anaesthesia\u2019 tracklist<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>1 Kremlin<br \/>\n2 Hypertension<br \/>\n3 Spleen<br \/>\n4 Endocrine<br \/>\n5 Flatline<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/sut1.co.uk\/sLJ2zuXasJR8v7uJjNyG8vfy9fDy9aTx-f2orfv99uXjsOPltOHm6Orb3jHf3reUlZKQwdanwtqvz9mqnoGanpWRn5uAktmblpfezruVYXV3YGxkcg..\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/soundcloud.com\/katuchat<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>Experimental French electronic newcomer, Katuchat,has shared his brand new animated visual clip for Spleen, which is lifted from his acclaimed debut EP \u2018Anaesthesia\u2019 out now <a class=\"mh-excerpt-more\" href=\"https:\/\/cultureaddicts.com\/?p=30033\" title=\"Avant-electronic artist Katuchat shares surreal animated video for \u2018Spleen\u2019\">[&#8230;]<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":30034,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"_wpas_customize_per_network":false},"categories":[13,28,29],"tags":[7770,7769,7771,7768],"class_list":["post-30033","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-electronic-music","category-music","category-music-video","tag-anaesthesia","tag-katuchat","tag-roche-musique","tag-spleen"],"aioseo_notices":[],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cultureaddicts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/27466-91781fcbda6e83c20c944c4f0953c47f.jpg?fit=640%2C415&ssl=1","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p2B2TV-7Op","jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":36325,"url":"https:\/\/cultureaddicts.com\/?p=36325","url_meta":{"origin":30033,"position":0},"title":"Nelson Beer delivers spaced out electronica on\u00a0&#8216;And The Thunder&#8217;","author":"cultureaddicts","date":"April 15, 2021","format":false,"excerpt":"Left-field electronic musician \/ composer Nelson Beer has shared a brand new track And The Thunder out now via [PIAS] Recordings.
