Kati Castillo – Celular

Austrian-Dominican singer Kati Castillo releasew her debut single „Celular”.. The song, co-written by Kati herself and Amadeus Award-winning producer Johannes Madl, is the first release from this year’s Matches Music Songwriting Camp at Attersee.

“Celular” by Kati Castillo captures the feeling of a real connection and the tension that follows: who makes the first call? Set to a flirty, rhythmic beat with undeniable summer vibes, the song explores that mix of hesitation and hope – the feeling you get when you’re waiting for someone to go first. Sometimes picking up the phone feels like a huge step, but if the chemistry is real, why not just call? In a time of casual connections and unread messages, “Celular” is a reminder to be bold and follow the feeling. Direct, honest, and a little nostalgic.

Kati Castillo is an Austrian-Dominican singer, songwriter, and producer blending R&B, Latin, Pop, and electronic influences into a raw and sensual sound. Guided by intuition, some ideas start as sketches on her iPad and others evolve in the studio with trusted producers. With her voice as her main instrument she moves between softness and power, capturing moments of intimacy, chaos, and clarity. Kati Castillo doesn’t aim for perfection, she creates from feeling. Fans of RAYE, Rosalía, and SZA will find a fresh, vulnerable and honest voice in her world.
