For her debut solo album, СLights Out,Т Kate Simko packed her bags
travelled 6000 miles from Chicago to Buenos Aires - 2 years in a row -
taking her time to compose and deliver one of the most creative and
timeless electronic music albums of recent times. A musical expedition of
twists and turns, СLights OutТ branches out into vast avenues of diversity
with a ten-track offering that takes us on a body-moving journey of
countless colours and shapes. Groovy polyrhythms, rich harmonies, and warm
analog textures weave a common thread throughout the voyage, forming a
stunning and romantic display of creative emotion. Highly lauded German
label Hello? Repeat fits perfectly with KateТs artistic outlook. Having
carved their niche in the electronic music scene with rare and meticulously
selected output since inception in 2005, they hold a reputation as a
leading label in one of the most respected circles of creative and
innovative dance music. Hello? Repeat is conceptual, artistic and the music
and artist set speak volumes. Bruno Pronsato, Daze Maxim, Cabanne, Audio
Werner, Patrick Specke, and Half Hawaii have contributed to the labels
catalogue, with СLights OutТ crowning the labelТs 19th release. After a
contemplative break, they strike back with one of their strongest offerings
to date in the shape of Kate SimkoТs artful and boundary-eclipsing album.
Music has been a lifelong journey of discovery and personal expression in
Kate SimkoТs life. From intense classical training, to collaborating with
the Philip Glass ensemble, to scoring a feature film, Kate has always
embraced all projects in their magnitude. However, her debut artist album
was somehow the most challenging of all - her first complete
(uninterrupted?) statement of original music
