Katie Gately

Katie Gately's music can be particularly hard to describe or pin down.  Is it electronic?  Sure.  Is it dancey?  It can be.  Is it weird?  You betcha.  I sometimes find myself wondering what manner of alien or imaginary woodland creature created these often bizarro, warped pop tracks.  Listen to "Tuck" below, taken from Gately's upcoming debut, full-length LP, "Color," out later this year on Tri Angle.

I have no idea how to even describe this new song from Katie Gately, featured on her recent split 12" with Tlaotlon on Fat Cat.  "Pivot" sounds completely alien, like some kind of warped transmission we've just picked up from space that we're only slowly piecing together.  It's trippy, and creepy, and a great track for Halloween.  Listen below.

I'm not really sure how to describe the music of Katie Gately.  It's a weird mix of ghostly electronics, strange and distorted vocal effects, but an underlying groove to the whole thing.  There is a definite kinship to the likes of The Knife, but i wouldn't call it a reproduction in any way, just two artists traversing the same cold seas.  Listen to "Sample and Hold Me (Please Don't Scold Me)" below and head over here to listen to the rest of the "Pop Pop" EP.
