79.5 is the sound of New York City. Soulful and psychedelic, their melodies may be hard to categorize, from 70’s underground disco to acid jazz to sugary sweet pop. The line-up includes singer, songwriter and composer Kate Mattison, singer and rapper Lola Adanna, drummer Caito Sanchez (Charles Bradley, Lee Fields), bassist Andrew Raposo (Midnight Magic, Hess Is More) and sax player and flautist Izaak Mills.
This week, Razor-N-Tape revisit a few of the standout cuts from last year’s massive LP drop by Brooklyn band 79.5 with a varied dancefloor-ready remix package.
Here we asked Kate Mattison to talk to us about records that have had an impact on her musical journey.
Todd Rungren is my hero!
I absolutely melt when I hear this song, and the lyrics are so private, so raw. Something always about Donna.
Such an incredibly perfect track. The octave piano jumps are just so cool.
Her cover of Leonard Cohen’s song is so interesting and lush. The strings at the end, just magic.
She might be gone on this earth, but Aretha lives on in every one of us. This song makes me never want to give up.
First time I heard this I played it at least 10x again. Never tire of this gem.
As a kid, it got no better than listening to Bo Diddley on my Walkman while riding my bike.
I’m a big Janet fan, but this track especially I came back around to maybe 10 years after its release. It’s so dramatic and sweet, and always makes me dance.
It’s just so beautiful.
This is a great song! I don’t know what it is about it but I always put it on when I’m feeling a little down, it perks me back up!
Thanks for tuning in to our deep dive with Kate Mattison of 79.5, exploring the timeless tracks that have shaped their unique sound. Don’t forget to check out the latest groove with their new remix EP, available now on Razor-N-Tape. Dive into the dancefloor magic at 79.5 Remixes and let the rhythms move you!
