Music and style

The broader description associated with KT also refers to a self-taught musician and songwriter working across different musical forms and styles. That material presents the music as difficult to categorise, with elements of fusion, avant-garde background music, jungle, jazz, new age, experimental noise, heavy trance, classical, techno, blues, funk and progressive rock. It also notes that much of the instrumentation is created with electric guitar connected to guitar-to-MIDI synth software.

Under the KT name, seven albums are listed. These are KAT-A-COMB, Megablast - Soundtracks for Your Life, Orfin, KT0, EFGH, 3,2,1... and Democracy of Violence. The same material describes these early releases as largely instrumental and strongly experimental in approach.
