Burgeoning experimental electronic producer Ka Fu has joined forces with Lama’s Dream on ‘Rain Catcher (Ka Fu Remix)’ .
Ka Fu’s interpretation of the title track from Lama’s Dream’s new EP Rain Catcher appears alongside remixes by Tuba Twooz and Alae Records founder Ivan Latyshev. In 2019, Ka Fu burst onto the scene with his album Encoding: Master, an eclectic collection of tracks characterised by Ka Fu’s pacy production and ability to convey a sense of unyielding forward motion through his sound. The album boasts mixing credits by Klas-Henrik Lindblad (Anja Schneider, Rodriguez Jr., The Presets) from Berlin BlackHead Studios and received support from Data Transmission, XS Noize, Child Of House and Progressive Dreamers amongst others.
Founded in 2018, Lama’s Dream is the unique vision of experienced DJ and producer Denis Brunich. In cooperation with different live musicians around the world, he creates distinctive downtempo dance music, interweaving a story within each track and filling it with extraordinary purpose and meaning.
Ka Fu‘s sound is endlessly inspired by the likes of Depeche Mode and, more recently, wave music heavyweights Noah B and Kareful. The remix is an amalgamation of experiences, interests and talents, drawing parallels to the organic-meets-electronic sounds of Boards of Canada, Bonobo and Koresma.
‘Rain Catcher (Ka Fu Remix)’ is a deep and contemplative offering showcasing Ka Fu‘s ability to craft immersive soundscapes. Pairing the intricate organic guitar work of Lama’s Dream with crisply edited samples, Ka Fu carves out a space for each sonic element to take root and bloom as the track progresses. A commanding bassline flows beneath silvery synths, sweeping percussion and ethereal vocals. Small gestures string together as the track gradually warms and fills out, suspending the listener in a state of blissful, healing hypnosis.
