KattattaK! — Music, Energy, and Community in Constant Motion
Now in Season 18, "Katt's Retro Arcade" is 90 minutes of music drenched in neon nostalgia and futuristic edge. This season’s sets dive deep into synthwave, retrowave, and 1980s throwback soundscapes, reviving the era’s signature pulse while infusing it with modern production and precision. The music hums with the glow of analog synths, the shimmer of chrome reflections, and the restless optimism of imagined tomorrows. As Samuel Valentine neatly captures it, “Synthwave is the music for a future that never happened but everyone dreamed about in the ‘80s.” Katt channels that sentiment perfectly — every track feels like a transmission from a parallel timeline where the future really did come dressed in neon and echoing drum machines. It’s nostalgia refracted through the lens of possibility, equal parts memory and momentum.
If you’re looking for a musical experience that never really stops — one that hums along whether you’re logged into Second Life or just tuning in from the outside world — KattattaK! has you covered. What began as a small, spontaneous idea has evolved into a continuous, living broadcast: a 24/7 stream of archived KattattaK! episodes, looping endlessly for anyone who wants to drop in, turn up the volume, and drift into its distinctive rhythm.
The story of KattattaK! began back in March 2021. Kimmie and Katt, two friends throwing what was meant to be a casual beach party, realized that something was missing — live music. That impulse, simple as it was, ignited an idea that grew far beyond a one-off event. Before long, KattattaK! was born: a high-energy weekly show that started as a two-hour session but has since refined itself into a sharp, 90-minute burst of sound and spectacle.
Each Saturday at 6 PM SLT, the Kimkattia Dome becomes the beating heart of this world. Those who arrive early are rewarded — about twenty minutes before the show begins, Katt unveils her AI-generated “warm-up” tracks. These are experimental, playful soundscapes that set the tone for the night ahead: part curiosity, part art, and entirely unpredictable. Then comes the main show — 90 minutes of momentum, mood shifts, and connection.
KattattaK! seasons typically span ten episodes, with short breaks in between to reset and recharge before diving back in. The community around the Dome has grown loyal and lively, forming an atmosphere that feels equal parts concert, social hub, and ongoing creative experiment. Adding to the mix, Sia Aurora — known to regulars as The Deviant DJ — occasionally steps in to spin her own signature sets, bringing a fierce, eclectic edge to the mix.
But the Dome doesn’t sleep between weekends. Wednesdays at 5 PM SLT, it transforms again — a midweek escape with its own identity.
Week One brings KWR – Katt’s Wednesday Reset, a total change of pace. The tempo drops, the space widens, and the atmosphere deepens. Katt curates a sonic experience built on lush, ambient soundscapes — the kind that recall artists like Carbon Based Lifeforms, Aes Dana, or Solar Fields. It’s less a performance and more a journey inward: an hour of immersion meant to let listeners breathe, think, and drift through imagined worlds where time slows and light feels liquid.
Week Two, however, belongs to silence — or, at least, to possibility. On alternate Wednesdays, The Dome is Dark. It’s a pause in the cycle, a moment to step back and make room for the unexpected. Occasionally, that space fills again with energy when DJ Sia takes over the night. Under her Deviant DJ moniker, she flips the mood completely, delivering pounding EDM sets that light up the virtual floor. Expect festival energy, underground club beats, and mashups that crash genres together in ways that shouldn’t work — but somehow do.
Together, these events — the Saturday shows, the Wednesday shifts, the nonstop stream — make KattattaK! more than just a performance. It’s an evolving ecosystem of sound and connection, blending technology, artistry, and community in a way that feels both futuristic and deeply human. Whether you drop by for a few minutes or stay for an entire season, the Dome always has something waiting — sound without borders, music without pause, and a community built on rhythm.
The loop never ends — and that’s precisely the point.
