This new sonic wardrobe features House, Drum & Bass, Neo-Soul, Electro-Funk, Big Beat Techno, Rock Reggae, Metal, and Trip-Hop.
“…….superb from front to back and shows an alluring new side of the infinitely diverse artist.”–Jon D’Auria, Bass Magazine
“Katie Knipp was already the Queen of several genres – her complex, yet accessible compositions never fail to elicit awe. However, this remix project with Pancho Tomaselli, opens up a myriad new sonic avenues, and paints fresh vistas with innovative confidence. Utterly wonderful.” -Joe Cushley, host of Balling the Jack Radio on Resonance FM, United Kingdom
Highlights of Dance me include tracks that pull listeners through an array of moods- from hypnotic bass-driven anthems to lush, atmospheric sound worlds- cementing Knipp as an artist who refuses to be confined by any single genre.
