Discography
ORGANIC
Christopher Kah's latest album, 'ORGANIC,' stands as a testament to his unparalleled ability to blend the hallowed timbres of church organs with the pioneering sounds of electronic music, crafting a project that feels both deeply rooted in musical tradition and boldly forward-thinking. The album unfurls as a sonic exploration that ventures beyond the boundaries of genres, inviting listeners into a realm where the sacred and the synthetic merge in a mesmerizing dance. At the heart of 'Organic' lies a profound respect for the organ, an instrument steeped in history, which Kah deftly intertwines with contemporary electronic soundscapes across ten meticulously crafted tracks. From the opening notes of 'Nova Nivis,' the album captivates with its delicate balance of ethereal melodies and enigmatic ambiances, setting the stage for a journey through the cosmic and the spiritual. The track 'Vault of Celeste' epitomizes the album's thematic core, with its AI-generated visuals that craft a surreal, boundary-pushing experience, perfectly complementing the track's expansive and cinematic qualities. This blend of visual and auditory storytelling is a hallmark of Kah's artistic expression, further exemplified in 'Le Second Voyage,' where listeners are invited into dream-like sequences of infinite galaxies, underscored by airy organ arpeggios and cinematic grandeur. 'Organic' doesn't shy away from embracing the darker, more intense facets of electronic music, as evidenced in 'Blast,' a track that infuses techno rhythms with the sacred sounds of organs, redefining the club experience. Meanwhile, 'Chimera' and 'An Expected Backfire' showcase Kah's skill in creating deeply atmospheric compositions that weave together hypnotic rhythms with layered, saturated sounds, culminating in a powerful auditory experience that's both haunting and invigorating. Each track serves as a chapter in a larger narrative that Kah constructs, one that navigates the intersections of the divine and the digital. With 'Organic,' Christopher Kah not only pays homage to his formative years and classical training but also pushes the envelope of electronic music, crafting an album that resonates with a timeless quality while propelling listeners into uncharted sonic territories. In essence, 'Organic' is more than an album; it is a profound statement on the evolution of sound and spirituality, a beacon for the future of electronic music that honors its past. Christopher Kah has carved a niche that is uniquely his own, offering up a work that is destined to be dissected and admired for years to come.
INTUITIVE MUSIC
Intuitive Music: Weaving sound, cinema, and emotion into tales.
The enigmatic Christopher Kah has furthered his eclectic catalogue with more unique and inspiring output on its way this January. The 'Intuitive Music' album is a showcase of Kah's ability to weave together the worlds of sound and cinema, pure emotion at every twist and turn, playing out animations right before your eyes as each short journey presents its own tale. The talented composer is grabbing his artistic freedom with both hands inviting his peers to join him.
When you begin to unravel the 'Intuitive Music' experience, you are not simply listening, but every sense in your body is tantalised and enlightened by the intelligent vibrations which urge your thought processes to steer in original directions, outside of the box and anything you have wondered before.
Kah has never been afraid to express himself in a diverse manner, constructing music and projects way beyond the norm, and he wants to pass on this ethos. The idea of this project is not only for the Frenchman to showcase what he can craft, but to encourage other artists to not settle for typical formats. An album should be created by the artist for the artist, a natural and organic process, an open invitation to make their mark on the vast music industry of the 21st century.
Combining all of the above Christopher looks to open up another series of workshops next year, Masterclass sessions with blossoming people who want to develop, and open up new doors for them. A fantastic opportunity for hardworking producers to explore new terrain and ideas.
A mastermind of modern music offering his knowledge and vast experience via his theatrical sound and concepts, looking to inspire the forthcoming generation of talent to engage in otherworldly sound design and compositions from the artist's heart.
L'Art de Christopher Kah est d'allier eclectisme et precision; il sait capter la frequence de resonance de l'image et de l'intention de son realisateur, et la faire vibrer dans en accord magnifie.

LES FREQUENCES INTERDITES
"Intuitive Music: A sonic journey blending cinema, emotion, and avant-garde innovation."
After ten years of silent maturation, now is the time of awakening. Les Frequences Interdites is the latest studio album from acclaimed French artist, Christopher Kah, a cinematic experience via the form of sound, providing an all-round stimulation of your senses. His unconventional approach to music has led him on an illusive career thus far, traversing through multiple shades of techno, from discerning to industrial. Unintentionally collecting these tracks for the last ten years this project sees the sheer passion leak into unmarked territory, there were never any boundaries with time, or limits to sound, leaving an incessant freedom for the Roland affiliate to delve deeper with experimental explorations, and approach numerous styles.
It is to no surprise that the nine-track album has already received enormous support from fellow French pioneer, Laurent Garnier on his It is What It Is radio show, an immediate stamp of approval from a highly respected peer, only expected to increase over the coming period as the world receives Kah’s latest statement.
Each of the outings on the album attracts you in with a soft whispering female voice, setting the tone for the next chapter, with opening track ‘Enlightenment’ igniting with the words “The Beginning”, and so it begins. Steering clear of the generic four to the floor, the thudding broken drums, flashing vocal, and pensive synth work make this an eclectic inception to the body of work and Christopher Kah’s universe. ‘History’ follows up with a gradual and steady lift through organic drumwork, a somewhat eerie, and dark mood that grips you. Shuffling movements in ‘Paternity’ lean this toward a trip-hop entity, conjoined with melodic synths which bring an engrossing angle. ‘Glorious Sun’ is 3 minutes of distinctive ambiance, as the female chants drag you out of the rain, transcending you in the next soundscape. A sense of panic in urgency in ‘Run Run After’ creating imagery of an intense chase, a nod towards the hay days of Drum & Bass, an expected, thrashing number adding to the bizarre curation.
Another discerning journey lowering the heart rate in “Disturbancy – Initiate” a chugging sci-fi trip leading you into murky waters or mystery. Psychedelic and peculiar spoken words work their way around the body of the track in “Damaged,” the voices embedding firmly in your mind enforcing a loss of your surroundings. The aptly named “Mirage” tantalizes your thought process, launching you deeper into this out earth excursion to the point of no return. Encapsulating the rollercoaster of emotion your body has encountered in one track, allowing the escapism to intensify, painting the last strokes on the canvas, building mellowly to a graceful ending of the visual experience. An unimaginable force that has cut deeper than the skin.
Bonus track ‘14 Ans’ lifts spirits with probably the most funk orientated arrangement out of the nine, a pleasant experience allowing time to stop and reflect on the experience that laid before you.
Kah’s recent endeavors do not halt here, as he recently propelled his ECHO LIVE project into the music cosmos, a collaboration with veterans of the game, Roland. The live moniker sees Christopher utilizing the bare amount of two machines, a Roland MC-707 and Roland TR-8S, proving once again it is more than possible to create intelligent music with minimum resources.
There was never a doubt in anyone’s mind that Kah could take us to this visually outer universe location, but now there is evidence for all to absorb and endure. A fantastic display of sound variation, bridging across contrasting moods and atmospheres, with pure emotion seeping through the gaps.

SECOND NATURE
Christopher Kah's summer-crafted LP melds brooding techno with electro energy for a dancefloor-centric sonic journey.
Composed over the course of a long, hot summer month, Christopher Kah's latest long player serves up a firm reminder of the endless possibilities involved in creating electronic music. An 9-track affair that sees the producer call on his trademark brooding techno sound, it nonetheless serves up a fascinating alternative to his last album, the brilliantly received Limited Resource. With that one picking up heavy support from the likes of Laurent Garnier, this is another that's sure to appeal to those interested in dancefloor-driven electronica. From wild electro sounds to Detroit-inspired techno, it serves up a energy-filled workout that barely if ever pauses for breath.
Getting us going is the sounds of 'Second Nature', a full-on sound assault that immediately lets the listener know that they're in for a white-knuckle ride. The infectiously catchy 'CKosmos' expands on the electro vibe, with its muffled vocoder vocals and heart-racing baseline particularly worthy of note. Barely two tracks in, and we've already encountered an album that's not for the faint of heart.
The aptly-titled 'Stamina' is another cut that's positively teaming with energy, while 'Wavering' takes matters down a notch courtesy of a more trance-tinged, restrained approach that forces parallels with Age of Love's self-titled classic anthem. The captivating, otherworldly sounds of '4:1' remind us that this is no ordinary LP, before 'Phantom' goes deeper than ever before in search of its kicks. Kah reminds us once more of his love for atmospheric vibes on 'Faces', another cut that's never lacking in momentous overtones.
The final quarter of the release gets underway thanks to 'Fallout & Ashes', a twinkling, hard-edged track that neatly leads into the album's closing salvo, the quite emphatic 'Whirlwind'. A fitting track with which to close out on, its melancholy heavy aesthetic means it's sure to appeal to DJs from both the house and techno divide. An endlessly intriguing release with no shortage of big moments, Christopher Kah's latest is sure to be treated with wide acclaim by those in the techno community.

LIMITED RESOURCE
Christopher Kah's 'Limited Resource' showcases live, maximal impact with minimal tools, revealing deep musical explorations and an open, organic approach to techno.
Christopher Kah prepares his latest LP, something a little out of the ordinary based around live performance and maximalist sonic impact from a minimal set of tools. With prior releases on CR2 records, Get Physical, Datapunk, Gigolo records and others his first full length was always going to be well received, but coming with such a strong concept and execution to the project is something that took time to get right. Limited Resource at it's best feels like an electronic note pad, a pad where Christopher Kah expresses his deep and darkest musical ideas, packed with texture and feeling in an incredibly organic way. Part of the concept was this openness to bare all for people, holding no secrets back. ''The gear I use is very minimum with maximum result, a drum computer, synthesizer and sampler combined with dj-ing. Instead of mixing only 2 tracks simultaneously, I customize the tracks the way it feels right at that moment. The possibilities are just endless when combining analog and digital equipment. I want to push the mix into another dimension, Closer to the public, and see how they react'' Already receiving plaudits from industry brands like Roland and Elektron, following a series of videos he posts online, sharing how he uses and taking you inside his stripped back production process.
