tAngerinecAt is the project of Zhenia Purpurovsky — producer, composer, classically trained multi-instrumentalist, poet and sound artist with 35 years of musical practice — and Paul Chilton, sound artist and multi-instrumentalist. Both are based in Wales. They met in Ukraine, where Paul lived for nineteen years. Their music is a ritual that sneaks up on you: visceral, unclassifiable, evoking the apocalyptic gravitas of Philip Glass, Jocelyn Pook and Ryuichi Sakamoto, the emotional depth of Bachar Mar-Khalifé and Maxim Shalygin, the cinematic intensity of Son Lux, and hammering industrial electronic beats of Gesaffelstein intensity. Music of freedom and empowerment that rose from the bare realities of life. Purpurovsky's lyrics are forged in the fire of his own life — born in Soviet Ukraine, shaped by extremes no manifesto could contain, now Welsh. Not confession. Ceremony. Not escapism. Liberation. The band's latest album Grief was released in 2025 and sells to an ever-growing audience at shows and through the group's Bandcamp and website. H.R. V.IP was their first album, originally self-released in 2014 by tAngerinecAt and now gets a re-issue treatment through Klanggalerie with the addition of three rare and unreleased bonus tracks.
