mega cat is a disembodied multidimensional being most discernibly experienced as sound waves. It was first discovered in a basement home studio in the Central District of Seattle, Washington by audio chemists Aaron Benson (drums, percussion, guitar) Kim West (synthesizer, piano) and Ryan Devlin (bass, guitar.) Upon first encountering mega cat, all three researchers experienced a loss of time, body dissociation, euphoria, and ego death. Reports of holographic thought, enhanced perception, and minor instances of levitation have been widely documented from just one encounter with mega cat. Though the being doesn’t seem to use traditional language to communicate, mega cat transmits instrumental narratives that feel familiar to fans of 20th century science fiction, afro-beat, hip hop, and psychedelic music. In a rare interview, the creature stated “mega cat is mutant. mega cat isn’t done mutating.” Archaeologists are now linking artwork found in early human settlements with the stories being “transmitted” via mega cat’s music. The now famous graphic cave etchings of battles between animals appearing to be giant rodents and amphibians seem to be mirrored in the recent mega cat transmissions “Rat Fight” and “Good Newts.” Largely derided as a hoax, the woman claiming to be Sarah Connor from the year 2029 was recently verified to be a genetic twin to actress Linda Hamilton. How, then, is this woman 20 years Hamilton’s junior? The synchronicity of mega cat’s twin “Ballads of Sarah Connor” parts I and II is again tough to explain. Are these coincidences some sort of massive publicity stunt on the part of label Share It Music and distributor Sub Pop Records? And, if so, to what end? Is mega cat trying to tell us something we’ve yet to fully discern? In public appearances to the audio and scientific communities, Benson, West and Devlin are joined by Dave Dederer (Presidents of the United States of America) on guitar and Daniel Weiss (The Sextones) on percussion. Though mega cat shifts shape, the clearest imagery of the disembodied being has been transcribed by the Japanese born, Seattle based illustrator and muralist Shogo Ota (tiremanstudio.com). The world has been promised a complete transcription of mega cat’s messages to date sometime in February of 2024. Show more
