Track Premiere: Catpurse “Fire-Eaters”

Black and white image of two female artists, each in a thoughtful pose. The left artist has long wavy hair and wears a white outfit, while the right artist has straight hair and rests her hand on her cheek, wearing a dark top.

Catpurse is the collaborative project of Hulda Ragnhildur Hjálmarsdóttir and Sofia Zaiceva (aka sofi), two artists working at the edges of sound, code, and memory. Their new track “Fire-Eaters” plays like a transmission from a world only partially remembered. A repeating beep marks time like a warning, something in the distance getting closer with every glitched-out bar. Vocal fragments drift in like signals from ancient radio waves as if a lost civilization we once inhabited is reaching back out from the void. Thumping rhythms pulse and squelch with a kind of tactile urgency, drawn from abstracted memories of movement, heat, and touch. Nothing here stays fixed. It shifts, flickers, and folds into itself, leaving behind a resonance that feels both bodily and broken.

“Fire-Eaters” appears on She Has Candy, which will be released by SØVN on June 12. Stream below and pre-order HERE.
