Last Friday, Team Supreme’s Dot, aka Kate Ellwanger, released her latest remix of Koloto’s Mechanica on XLR8R which serves a precursor to her upcoming vocal debut record out later this year. She’s taken Koloto’s original and orchestrated a masterful arrangement of intricate percussion and some low end bass to elevate an already remarkable track. In addition to producing her new album, Ellwanger has also founded her new record label Unspeakable Records focussing on trailblazing lady producers in the music industry.
In her own words, Dot describes the concept behind the new imprint, “I noticed this underlying tension of female producers being competitive with one another and I wanted to completely get rid of that catty-ness. I was just like, this is dumb. It would be so much better if we joined forces and started making shit happen.” This incredibly lofty ideal could soon become a reality as the Unspeakable roster includes a some of music’s leading ladies including Low Leaf, Suzi Analogue, G.L.A.M., Youngmin Joo, Kittens, Teri Gender Bender, Cherry Chan, Vendetta and Amy Cherette. We expect we’ll be hearing alot more about Dot and her new label in the coming months but for now stream her new remix and pick up ticket to see her live supporting Tomas Barfod, and Kid606 at The Echo on September 12th!
