Welcome To The Official KOMMUNITY FK ©™ Website.
Kommunity FK was created by Patrik Mata in 1978 in the midst of the LA punk explosion.
Unknowingly, Patrik's new musical genre became a cross between post punk against a darker gloom that
became the genesis of American gothic/deathrock.
Kommunity FK's beginnings were raw. Mata's influences of William S. Burroughs, Jean Cocteau,
Salvador Dali, and early Bowie were woven through a dreamy musical side combined with
experimental synthesized art punk. Mata's visionary soundscapes were all his own.
The original pronunciation of Mata's new creation was "Kommunity Fuck".
Very daring for the
time when the later part of the band name was the top word of what was then known as the
FCC's 'seven words not to be uttered' list. Changed by Mata to "Kommunity FK" so promoters back in the
day had no problem placing the headliners name on their marquees.
The FK has stuck throughout the decades ever since the bands live performance inception.
Patrik Mata, now fully armed with his own recording studio (Vision & The Voice Studios)
where Mata has continued Kommunity FK as a groundbreaker within the world of music.
Mata not only records new Kommunity FK pieces and remixes at the Vision & The Voice Studios daily,
but also works for clientelle such as movie sound tracks and other artist material.
Mata also DJs for numerous clubs including the first reopening of the Los Angeles based
"Bat Cave".
Kommunity FK performs internationally and records new material
in the same tradition as they always have since 1978-
But now with a 21st Century Deathrock twist.
(Streaming website background music is Kommunity FK's original piece "23rd Curse"...Enjoy!)

Kommunity FK Featured On:
Plunder The Tombs
Plunder The Tombs is a blog created and writen by Sutekh The Destroyer.
Based out of Western Austailia Sutekn started Plunder The Tombs as a way of looking back on a musical past that he felt was in sore need of curation.
As many Kommunity FK/Deathrock/Goth fans have also expressed-
It seemed Sutken felt that what passes for Goth these days is not even what the scene or music once was. Plunder The Tombs is a blog filled with history and information regarding many bands from back in the days of 1979 to 1988.
Patrik himself has really enjoyed the depth of Setken's take on Kommuinity FK.
It looks as if Setkin knows a great deal of history regarding bands that helped start the genre of Deathrock/Goth and does his research well.
This write up/blog spot on Kommunity FK starts off with Patrik in Los Angeles starting Kommunity FK in 1978 as well as insite upon the album art of Kommunity FK.

* Thank you to Yaffa & Phillip at 'POSERS' on Melrose *
POSERS has a special place in Patrik's life.

A very heart felt thank you to Yaffa and Phillip for all their kind support to Patrik and Kommunity FK.
**PATRIK MATA WRITING AUTOBIOGRAPHY/MEMOIRS FOR FUTURE BOOK PUBLICATION"**
KOMMUNITY FK's mainman PATRIK MATA has been writing his
autobiography/memoirs for an upcoming book publication.
He has been told by
many of his closest colleagues and associates to do this for years now and
has finally decided to go for it. This most promising book will include his
early days as a daydreaming 3rd grader in a Catholic school hearing British
Invasion rock for the first time, to his Glitter Kid days of being "reborn"
from hearing BOWIE for the first time, to his being handed the "Factory
Sample: Not For Sale" copy of "Anarchy in the UK" BY tHE sEx pIsTolS when
they were on EMI from then Malcolm McMclaren Rep. RORY JOHNSON.
The book,
PATRIK claims, "will be one of personal and, at times, even questionable
experiences, exposed for the first time from being buried quite deep in my
Soul's TRUTH." The book will also include some never-seen-before
photographs taken during several musical periods in his life to also having
an accompanying CD of trax of songs self-penned by PATRIK MATA that have
never seen any kind of release until now.
A few of these trax will include
some of his very first ever songs with just himself and an acoustic 12
string guitar to 2 trax PATRIK recorded that were mixed and produced by KEN
SCOTT(producer of the best first 5 most influential BOWIE classic lps), from
back in 1975!
The photo shown is a 'sneak peak' that Patrik has released. The photo was taken
by Mark Sullivan backstage at the Whiskey-A-Go-Go in Hollywood, California.
Patrik
is seen here hanging out with (from left to right) Rodney On The Roq, Blondie's Debora
Harry, and Patrik Mata-YUMMY!! The year is an early 1976 when Blondie just played their
debut show in Los Angeles.
Stay tuned to this website for more as it develops...
