London-based Sharon Katta dives into the stoops of darkness and resurfaces full of hope and renewal in new project "Death said, breathe". The 7 track EP reads like a short film, with a lush sonic landscape built specially for Dolby Atmos.
From a gunshot, to sounds of nature, and South Indian street drums - Katta creates an expansive arena filled with visceral experiences. The artist draws from his own struggles with mental health, crediting a phone call with his sister for ultimately saving his life. He shares,“Life is good. I’m grateful I reached out for help before I was too late. That call was the best decision I’ve ever made, and I’m glad I gave myself another chance at life.”
Collaborating with Grammy-winning engineer James Auwarter, Katta designed the project to be experienced in its entirety with Dolby Atmos, pushing the boundaries of what it means to create a sonic world that is both intimate, epic and collapses the distinctions between cinema, art, and lived experience.
