Hypnotic is the word that comes to mind when watching Kai Altair perform. She aims to inspire a connection to the multiverse, and help create an elevated state on the dance floor. And that’s exactly what she accomplished at her album release party in Brooklyn.
At the eclectic-chic bar and lounge, Lot 45 Buswick, Altair celebrated the release of her first record, Dreamwalker. Often performing with other musicians and performing artists, the album release party was no different. The magical night was filled with candle-lit altars, spoken word and poi spinners.
The 11-track LP is captivating with its trance-like electronics and Kai’s mesmerizing voice. “Draw Down the Moon,” the first track, has a slow tempo behind her pitch-perfect melodies. “Big Cat” is my favorite song on the new LP. It’s strong, dark and sensual. She seems to take on the persona of a lioness preying on what she wants.
Kai Altair’s sound is inspired by myth, transformational culture and dreams and that’s an understatement. While her debut LP is sexy and engaging, her live performances will have you in a trance! Visit http://kaialtair.com/shop/ to buy Dreamwalker.
