Jana Plewa and Sebastian Skalei are the two Berlin-based Singer-Songwriters at the core of Kat Cosm. (I say core because everybody who is in any way involved in this project can be regarded as being ‘in the band’ – for example, when Sebastian talks about the guy who designed the cover, he talks about him like a member of the band.) For this album (Knightboat), they recorded two new songs, which they composed and recorded at their respective homes. The songs are located almost exactly in the middle between electro-acoustic music and classic songwriting. Jana and Sebastian made sketches of these songs on guitar or piano, but recording them with the computer – an instrument which they use very playfully – is what gave them their final shape. Another trademark of this record is its richness in variety. Not only can one hear echoes from all genres and periods of popular music of the last 35 years.
