CATSINGTON – “to another town”

The new CATSINGTON single “to another town” was on repeat all day, and it is a genuinely gripping piece of music. The project came together in a Los Angeles apartment where Jeff Katz, a filmmaker and photographer, assembled tracks from old gear scraps like a collage. He eventually paired up with Swiss vocalist Bhuvan Singh over Instagram, and their partnership mirrors the heavy focus on distance, love, and heartbreak that shapes the music. Backed by bassist Paul Bucholz and drummer Justin Heaverin, the band builds this specific track around hypnotic rhythms and sharp edged synth textures that draw heavily from the raw, tense styles of Alan Vega, Suicide, and LCD Soundsystem.

What gets me is how the song uses baseball as a specific lens to look at deep, complicated human dynamics: friendship, rivalry, reconciliation, and how people drift apart before finding each other again. It looks at long term connections that once felt like they would last forever, questioning if they can survive when people grow up and chase fresh starts. The song hits on the idea that moving to a new place promises a clean slate, but people usually bring their unresolved habits and baggage along with them anyway. The driving blend of danceable energy and quiet, thoughtful writing creates a restless mood that feels completely honest.

Personally, I think the way the vocals play off the driving rhythm makes this an incredibly rewarding listen. It captures that strange ache of looking back at old friends while trying to figure out your own future. If you enjoy this track, you should definitely take some time to check out the previous releases from CATSINGTON to get a better sense of how their sound has developed.
