Pateka - Pateka (2025) [Hi-Res]

The album is an exhilarating and experimental sonic journey that blends jazz, rock-psychedelia, and neo-soul. It embodies the avant-garde spirit of the Bay Area, featuring a unique fusion of synthesized sounds, samples, off-kilter grooves, and expansive jazz harmonies. The record touches on themes of friendship, grief, and the esoteric. It incorporates snippets of real dialogue, layered samples, and shifting rhythms, capturing the intimacy of the band's shared creative life and referencing important places and traditions from their adolescence.
