  • Finally
    BeatTracker #22 Feat. New Releases in Nu Disco / Disco

    There are albums you listen to, and there are albums you live with. 'Finally', the forthcoming new record from Catz 'n Dogz, belongs to the latter.\n\nAcross sixteen tracks, Voitek and Greg have created their most creatively ambitious and emotionally open work to date. An album about relationships, friendship and the people and places that shape us. At its heart is a simple idea: music should make you feel something, and sometimes the most meaningful moments are the quiet ones when you finally have time to yourself.\n\n'We've tried over the years to make albums that are based on a certain concept, rather than just a collection of random music,' the duo explain. 'In a world of disposable art, we wanted to create something for special moments. A piece of work that the listener can really connect with.'\n\nFinally is rooted in the emotional contradictions that make memories so powerful. Inspired by classic American Folk and Soul, its songs are happy and nostalgic; hopeful without pretending that the past doesn't exist. There is melancholy inside the euphoria and warmth inside the sadness, a constant interplay between looking back and moving forward.\n\nThe album begins with the soulful breakbeat glow of 'We're Gonna Be Alright' featuring Ajii, before moving through the smoky jazz and piano-led intimacy of 'Dance For You' with Miller Blue and the bass-driven energy of 'Sun Goes Down' featuring Charlotte Haining. Closing with the reflective 'Miss You' featuring Mateusz Krautwurst, the record takes in a rich cast of vocalists, musicians and producers, alongside a series of deeply personal Catz 'n Dogz solo productions.\n\nThose collaborations are central to Finally. The album is, in many ways, a celebration of the creative friendships Voitek and Greg have built throughout their journey. Relationships that have allowed them to step outside their comfort zone and rethink what their music can be.\n\nWritten and recorded between Madrid, New York, Warsaw and the road, the album finds the duo placing renewed emphasis on songwriting, chord progressions and musical craft. Rather than simply chasing the next track, they took the time to learn, experiment and create something with a sense of permanence.\n\nThat sense of permanence also extends to the way Finally is being released. Alongside digital, the album will arrive on vinyl and cassette - different formats for different listeners, but all carrying the same invitation: slow down, press play and let the music take you somewhere.\n\nThis is an album for driving without a destination. For watching the sun go down. For remembering somebody you haven't thought about in years. For those rare stretches of time when there is nowhere else you need to be.\n\nIt is a celebration, but also an acknowledgement, of where we have been, the people we have met along the way, and the possibility that the best moments might still be ahead.\n\n'We are very happy that this album found its way to you,' say Catz 'n Dogz. 'We hope that every time you play it on your record player, it will put you in a good mood and remind you of somebody or something nice.' - Voitek & Greg\n\nSometimes, that's all an album needs to do.
