"Rad Cat, who creates cutesy and bubbly future-pop melodies, departs from his signature sound with his latest release, “Diamond.” ... the gritty, ominous and hard-hitting record." - Forbes
San Diego-native Rad Cat makes his debut on Dim Mak’s New Noise imprint with his addictive, electro-pop groove “Diamond,” featuring the fearless vocals of Gloria Kim. The track opens with a brooding, ominous melody before popping into Gloria Kim’s hushed, breathy vocals. As the song dips into the chorus, listeners are dropped into a frenzy of spunky synth chords as a driving, crisp beat persists.
“Diamond” marks Rad Cat’s New Noise debut, and follows Rad Cat’s self-released single “Levitate;” an ethereal, synth-driven tune featuring the vocals of Armen Paul. Earlier this year, fans heard Rad Cat’s sound shift to a darker, more emotional electronic sound following a breakup. The ominous tones in “Diamond” hint as a nod to this darker sound break, while employing many of the characteristics of the high-energy future pop sound that fans are used to.
Rad Cat has an impressive resumé of production and remix credits with artists like blackbear, Kevin Gates, Enrique Iglesias, and more, but the first-generation Mexican-American producer has made a name for himself soundtracking dance floors and even some of your favorite commercials for brands like Nintendo and Samsung.
Rad Cat caught the attention of major labels at a young age with his future pop sound, eventually signing remixes with Sony and Universal before turning 21. Since picking up a Fender Starcaster at age 12, Rad Cat has never stopped chasing his passion, leading to his eventual love of electronic music.
