Catalounge blends to some new kind of worldy, dubby, electro and danceable style of what we call Post-Mestizaje.

Spanish, English & French ragga-lyrics, livedrums and loops, effects, funky guitars and a booming bass: Certainly one kind of special european underground group.

Placed in the cosmpolitan Barcelona with origins from all over the world, the 6 very different musicians have been playing together for almost one year.

Not long ago, Gambeat, Manu Chaos and Mano negra's bass player got to know Catalounge, was fascinated and since then supports them within his own musical network.

In April 2006, their first EP came out: "Home". Taking in consideration the different heritages of the players (South America, Europe, Africa) the title "Home" seems somewhat ironic. On a deeper look, their music and the mix of cultures just defines for them the current centre of their lifes: where to relax, where to come to, where to feel right, home.

Their liveshows are great entertainment: They start with dubby, worldy soundscapes, rise the tention with disco-like funk-tunes and put the audience in extasy with rocky and cross-overy intoxicating songs. Don't miss the chance to see them live while they still play in clubs!

In summer 2008 Catalounge will continue to widen their fan base, play shows and travel a lot. Stay tuned, be our friend and be part of Catalounge artistic adventures!

Castellano:
Con su interesante fusión de estilos (Drum&Bass, down tempo, dub, hip-hop, electrónica) Catalounge muestra un nuevo enfoque al mestizaje musical barcelonés, en sus potentes directos la electrónica convive en perfecta armonía con intrumentos tradicionales como guitarras, bajo, batería y lap steel + FX, sumados a las voces de David Picard, Hug Lee Mungs.
