"I going there if I want to"
Katmaz is a Brooklyn based songwriter, producer, and multi-instrumentalist and his latest Molly is Polly is a heavy dirty synth propelled affair with deep 80's sounds and catchy vocal melodies. I mean, this could of been on the soundtrack for Beverly Hills Cop (you know, Eddie Murphy -1984). No, on second thought, Katmaz infused this song with such an industrial punk vibe that it would be more like a song in the 1980 Japanese sci-fi anime film "Be Forever Yamato" (yeah, I like that better). But you catch my drift, Katmaz has done a superb job of combining a new wave pop sound but amping up the vibe with a fair amount of dirt. Cool.
The Official Video where he sets the song to 1980's Championship Aerobics is cool, is funny but I secretly want him to set it to scenes from "Be Forever Yamato".

Katmaz is a Brooklyn based songwriter, producer, and multi-instrumentalist that approaches music visually, resulting in a cinematic quality to his sound. Born in Buffalo, NY, Katmaz found his passion for music at a very young age. At one point he was both a classically trained pianist and an amateur boxer but it’s difficult to play piano with swollen knuckles. After moving around the midwest and touring with the alternative act, Debussi, Katmaz settled in New York City in 2014. With the help of fellow producers Braden Blair and Matt Cody (SZA, Ro James), Katmaz created WaveCave studios.
In April of 2016, Katmaz gave a sample of his emotive, soulful strain of music with his first solo release "Nautical Things". Jason Grishkoff (Indie Shuffle) called it "beautiful enough to put me into a stupor" and placed it in their "Best Folk of 2016." In 2018 he released the EP “Tremolo Love” in which the Wild Honey Pie called it “a soulful piece of folk orchestration that could fill a stadium packed with awestruck fans.”
