Based in the UK and a resident at Natural Selection, EKATA engineers sonic environments where machine language and dystopian tension collide. Her sound operates in the shadows - driven by a cold, sci-fi presence & blurring the lines between Electro, Techno, Acid, and EBM. Each set and production unfolds like a transmission from a decaying future: precise, unrelenting, and charged with a latent sense of menace.
With releases on AVOIDANT (Soma Records) and a growing catalogue of electro-focused material that underscores her sharp, machine-driven sound, her output continues to reinforce a clear and uncompromising artistic identity within the underground. Her recent release on Umwelt's New Flesh Records, further extends this trajectory - raw, uncompromising, and firmly rooted in the darker edges of the electro spectrum.
Her journey has included memorable sets at legendary venues such as TRESOR, FOLD, UNFOLD, E1, Shambala Festival, About:Blank, Kilométre25, Fanzine Festival and Loone, steadily cementing a distinct presence within the worlds that she is orbiting.
Her work has resonated with visionary names in the electro world, earning praise and support from influential figures like Anthony Rother, Umwelt, The Advent, Andrea Parker, and Plant43 to name a few.
EKATA forges a sound steeped in dystopian atmospheres and mechanical intensity, where metallic textures and industrial rhythms collide with raw emotional depth - crafting immersive sonic landscapes that are as evocative as they are propulsive.
Whilst being heavily influenced by Detroit, her performances reflect a commitment to authenticity. she's a dedicated selector with sharp instincts and a fearless, uncompromising artistic vision. EKATA delivers sets that are powerful, transportive, and deeply resonant.
