Following on from Joseph Malik’s original version of ‘Trouble with a Capital T’ on Ramrock Red Records, this brand new EP on F*CLR is remixed courtesy of fabulous all-rounder, Natasha Kitty Katt with a brilliant new alternative ‘Trouble’ vocal delivery by Joseph Malik to fit the incessant groove. With additional production by the North Street West gang, Natasha delivers a synth driven banger, with high strings, a Nord worm lead and energetic drum patterns that would’ve been equally at home in the darker recesses of the legendary London clubs, Heaven or G.A.Y as well as today’s vibrant dancefloors. With distinct hints of Dead or Alive, Depeche Mode and Yazoo, this will rock your 80’s Hi-NRG universe. Be warned – ‘Trouble’ will burrow into your brain, and you will experience vocal outbursts at bus stops, by the chiller cabinet in Aldi and on the school run.
Born and raised in Edinburgh into a soul music-obsessed family, Natasha was introduced to rare disco, soul, funk and boogie from a young age. Spotted by the main influencers in the disco and house scene, Natasha quickly took up DJ residencies at well-known events such as Glitterbox, Suncebeat Festival Croatia, Southport Weekender, Soul Heaven and Ocean Beach Ibiza. Moving dancefloors with her eclectic collection of underground disco, she has also played at world-renowned clubs across the globe including Hï Ibiza, New York’s House of Yes, London’s iconic Printworks, Ministry of Sound, and Supernova Seattle. Matching her meteoric DJ’ing rise within clubland, her releases have gained interest by some of the scene’s biggest players, including Louie Vega (MAW), who reworked two of her tracks released on Nervous Records, as well as appearing on Glitterbox Recordings, Nervous Records, Tropical Disco Records, The Basement Discos and Midnight Riot to name but a few. As label owner of Edinburgh based Ghetto Disco Records, Natasha Kitty Katt’s releases focus on high quality disco and house, made for dancefloors.
