Marlena Käthe

**Marlena Käthe** is a Berlin-based musician and multidisciplinary artist known for her hauntingly ethereal soundscapes that blend dark pop, electronic textures, and poetic German lyricism. Emerging in the late 2010s, her work often explores themes of vulnerability, transformation, and the interplay between the organic and the synthetic. Tracks like *Schlaflied* and *Morphea* showcase her signature mix of brooding synths, whispered vocals, and intimate storytelling, while her 2023 single *AGED* leans into minimalist industrial beats layered with raw emotional candor.

Beyond music, Käthe’s artistry spills into visual media and performance, with her projects frequently accompanied by self-directed, surrealist-inspired visuals. Releases like *Bruises, Rework* and *Phyrrus* highlight her collaborative spirit and experimental edge, cementing her reputation as a shape-shifting voice in Europe’s underground electronic scene. Her work feels like a late-night conversation with shadows—equally unsettling and mesmerizing.
