Basel’s Katermurr channels a raw 90s house energy on the organ-driven ‘What Is’, landing via TheBasement Discos.
Katermurr delivers a punchy slice of retro-leaning house with ‘What Is’, a track that leans heavily into the golden era of organ grooves while keeping its sights firmly on modern dancefloors. Built around a bold, rolling bassline and those unmistakable stabs of gospel-tinged keys, the track wastes no time locking into a groove that feels both nostalgic and immediate.
There is a real bite to the production here. The drums hit with intent, the arrangement stays tight, and that “dog with a bone” energy runs throughout, pushing the track forward with a stubborn, driving momentum. It is the kind of cut that thrives in the mix, sitting comfortably alongside classic house selections while still holding its own.
Simple in structure but effective in execution, ‘What Is’ taps into the core of what makes house music work. Groove, attitude and a clear sense of purpose. A no-frills, organ-fuelled weapon for DJs who like their sets with a touch of 90s fire.
