Gataka

Gataka delivers a masterclass in 'Full-On' psychedelic trance, a sound that is as much about physical momentum as it is about mental expansion. The music is characterized by relentless, driving triplet basslines that create a sense of forward motion, layered with shimmering, liquid synth textures that seem to spiral upward. It is high-fidelity, high-energy electronic music designed for massive sound systems and open-air environments where the acoustics can breathe.

What sets Matan Kadosh apart is his ability to blend the 'twisted' and 'funky' elements of the genre. While many psytrance artists lean into dark or purely mechanical sounds, Gataka maintains a sense of groove and melodic playfulness. You will hear staccato vocal samples, sudden rhythmic shifts, and occasional rock-influenced elements like live drums or guitar riffs that break the hypnotic cycle just long enough to keep the listener engaged and surprised.

For those new to the project, 'In Trance We Trust' is the essential starting point. It captures the peak of the mid-2000s Israeli sound, offering a perfect balance of morning-style euphoria and technical complexity. It is music for the moment when the party transitions from night into day, providing a sonic surge that feels both grounding and transcendent.
