Emerging Sydney-based duo Cat & Calmell are thrilled to kick off the new year with the release of their second single ‘Dramatic’ and the accompanying video directed by Louis Brandt. Listen/Watch HERE
Produced by WA-born talent Hauskey and mixed by Justin Hergett (FINNEAS, Ashe), the brooding new single cements Cat & Calmell as ones to watch in 2021. With biting lyrics and an assured, confident energy, the song was written during a period of reflection on the current climate crisis.
Of the release, they say: “Dramatic is one of our favourites! We wrote this song as a way to express our frustration at the people in power and their complacency with the state of the world, it’s a cry of frustration from our generation to theirs and we hope it resonates and you think it’s a good jam!”
Cat & Calmell catapulted into 2020 with their debut release ‘dumbshit’. The track was added to full rotation at triple j, received numerous spins on BBC Radio 1 and collected praise from The Guardian, NME Australia, Pilerats and Monster Children, among others. The song gained placement in a number of prominent playlists across both Spotify and Apple Music including the hugely popular Diplo & Friends playlist. To round out a killer first year, the pair shared the Dumbshit Remix Pack, which featured two remixes by Loods and Grammy-nominated trio Mansionair (listen here), and unveiled their first ‘Bedroom Session’ live performance (watch here).

AMNPLIFY – DB
My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences.
Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.
