Patricia Kokett – Bizarr [Knekelhuis]

Patricia Kokett signs a new job in Knekelhuis. In 2018 she debuted on this Dutch label with Diabel, and now returns to this platform to sign her first album. Bizarr is a concept album, which she has been working on for years until achieving this great result.

On this long-awaited followup release, Patricia Kokett continues his transcendent explorations. Built around a trip to the annual Nine Emperor Gods festival on the island of Phuket, Thailand, Bizarr is the sonic end result of immersion into Thai ritual culture. The festivities and rituals of this so-called Vegetarian festival, which aim to give health and wisdom back to the community, inspired this beautiful, ecstatic collage of music, self-illuminating Kokett in the process. In this narrative of 6 long, stretched out songs, he conjures up an electrifying sense of catharsis and transcendence. An insert gathering in-depth liner notes about the artistic vision, the travels and the concept behind Bizarr will accompany this release.

Release date: March 30^th, 2020.
