Introducing Natasha Kmeto's Indubitable Synth Anthem 'Come & Say'
EntertainmentNatasha Kmeto is an electronic producer with a powerhouse, slightly jazz-influenced voice; live, the Portland-based musician sings, plays keybs, and programs synth patterns (or whatever!) on her rig at the same time, flexing her prodigious talent and melding dancefloor fealty with raw soul.
It’s been two years since Kmeto’s last album, Crisis, on which she explored techno with the instinct of a born Berliner, laying down throaty, ghostly vocal tracks over isolated, often minimal clicks and bass. In the interim, she’s been traveling the outer reaches of the festival circuit and touring with TV on the Radio, only now coming up for air. On September 18, she’ll release Inevitable (Dropping Gems), the follow-up album on which she, according to a press release, “explores her relationship with her partner and the self-actualization of her own queer identity” as well as a “range of emotions within that exploration” that “speak to universal human experiences.”
