Natasha Kitty Katt is not your average DJ and producer; she's an otherworldly force and an intergalactic disco vampire.
To celebrate her (unsurprisingly) favourite holiday, Halloween, Natasha announces the release of her new single ‘Batt Danse’, featuring vocals from Billy Wirth from the cult classic 1987 vampire film ‘The Lost Boys’, out everywhere on F*CLR Records on 27 October. Natasha will also be releasing a music video which will be out on Halloween day, Tuesday 31st October.
A dream collaboration for Natasha, and a real feast for the ears, the collaboration came about when her friend Kevin Wells of No Reel Productions heard the track and immediately said, ‘We need to get one of the original vampires on this.’ Kevin then put Natasha in touch with Billy Wirth who played ‘Dwanye’ in The Lost Boys.
Natasha says, “Billy has been an absolute joy to work with and is one of thee nicest guys ever. He recorded his vocal sections remotely in LA and we worked remotely. He’s went full on vampire, doing a spoken word part in the style of my beloved, Vincent Price.
I’ve always wanted to write my love letter to vampires and all things creepy, and this is it. I’m a huge horror fan and i’ve always loved that 80s synth, italo style sound so it was only natural that I would combine the two.
I never imagined I would get the opportunity to work with Billy Wirth, but here we are. The fact that something I have created something that will be immortalised with a ‘Lost Boy’ is a dream come true for me.”
We caught up with Natasha to find out more..
