Kate Wax is the alter ego of Aisha Devi Enz, the Swiss-born, half-Tibetan, totally-driven, self-producing avant-garde singer-songwriter that gifted the world with her Reflections of the Dark Heat debut album via Switzerland's ambassadors of cool Mental Groove back in 2006. And now, after a natural break for baby-making and subsequent months spent holed up with her beloved machines in her cosy studio cave, Aisha finds herself ready to dust off her Kate Wax persona and return to the dancefloor fray to unveil a bold new collection of dark, unconventional electronic post-pop going by the name of 'Dust Collision'.
Kate Wax is the purveyor of totally amazing electronic sounds. Bet you can't keep your feet still. I'm thinking Kate Wax could be the next big thing, check her out and see if you don't agree.
Echoes and the light

TITLE: Dust Collision (33BCD)
LABEL: Border Community
YEAR: 2011
Kate Wax's 'Dust Collision' is a bold collection of dark, unconventional vocally-exhilarating electronic post-pop underpinned by a minimal synth production aesthetic. swiss-born, half-tibetan autocrat kate wax's second studio album (the follow up to 2006′s 'reflections of a dark heat' on mental groove) is a self-produced affair, the idiosyncratic product of a love affair between her synthesizers and the raw unadulterated feminine power of her soprano trained voice, expanding to reveal her own rich lyrical universe. mixed by kate wax and electronic production legend James Holden.

I Knit You
Brings new meaning to the old joke, punchline being "If I get her the wool will she knit me one".
