Catch The Rise - 'Translator'


Producer/composer Catch the Rise (Britt Barker) pierces the veil between fear and hope to champion connection on downtempo instrumental, ‘Translator’.

‘Translator’ opens with a sense of uncertainty, seeing Catch the Rise step cautious electronic feet into unknown territory. It’s a little bit bleak and dystopian, but Catch the Rise quickly turns this narrative around. Live guitar instrumentation swoops in with a chiming sense of hope and resilience, shattering any fear or tension that may underpin the song.


On the ideas behind the track, Catch the Rise explains: ”Music can be such a powerful instrument of communication. It can facilitate connection between human beings and even between humans and nature. This is where the title Translator comes from.”

Through melodic and experimental textures, ‘Translator’ serves a reminder that no matter how expansive, unsettled or shrouded in mystery the world may seem, everything is interrelated. Everything has purpose.
