MY BABY

My Baby sounds like the intersection of a 1930s Mississippi Delta porch session and a modern electronic trance festival. Their music is built on a foundation of 'voodoo blues' - a term they use to describe the repetitive, hypnotic slide guitar riffs and tribal drum patterns that bypass the brain and go straight to the nervous system. It is earthy, organic, and deeply rhythmic, carrying a weight that feels both ancient and immediate.

What sets them apart is the 'shamanic' quality of Cato van Dijck's vocals, which often shift from soulful belting to repetitive, mantra-like chanting. While they use traditional instruments like the violin and lap steel, they arrange them with the structural logic of dance music, building tension through repetition until the track reaches a fever pitch. It is roots music played with the intensity of a rave.

Start with the album 'Prehistoric Rhythm' to hear their signature blend of psychedelic swamp-rock and danceable grooves. It perfectly captures their ability to make acoustic-based music feel electric and expansive, serving as the ideal gateway into their 'shamanaid' aesthetic.
