Rent ist the pseudonym of artist and ecologist Katrin Euller. Rent’s sounds refer to industrial ecosystems, interconnections, dark landscapes and their stories and the stories of those who inhabit these places. At the same time, it is the processes of sound creation itself that emerge in Rent's compositions: sounds influence each other, reinforce each other, cancel each other out, dissolve and become noise, sound like the city, a car alarm for example. Then everything gets lost in the fog again.

Together with the Viennese Label Ventil Records Rent will release their first LP Kill A Phantom in June 2024 after releasing the EP As Cold As Sunlight in collaboration with Transformer and Wilhelm Show me the Major Label in 2023. Katrin Euller is also part of several artistic collaborations and member of Doom band Eaeres.

Building from a reputation of thrilling live performances Rent breaks new ground with Kill A Phantom, evolving from the tropes of industrial and noise to forge cinematographic scenes of dark matter and metamorphic bodies. What first appears as confrontational music undergoes an idiosyncratic alchemy. Harsh sounds collide with digital remains and field recordings and form an ephemeral unity whose story unfolds and changes over time, while at the same time revealing genuine vulnerabilities and trauma.
