Originating in the early 2010s, the project was founded by producer and musician Alex Turner, who sought to create immersive soundscapes that evoke emotional and introspective experiences.

The name "Kateche" is inspired by the Greek word "κατήχησις" (katēkēsis), meaning "instruction" or "teaching," reflecting the project's aim to explore auditory narratives and convey complex atmospheric themes. Kateche's music is characterized by layered textures, minimalist rhythms, and evocative melodies, often incorporating field recordings and unconventional sound sources.

Throughout its career, Kateche has released several albums and EPs that have garnered critical acclaim within the electronic music community. Notable releases include the albums "Echoes of Silence" (2015) and "Luminous Veil" (2018), which showcase the artist's evolution toward more ambient and cinematic compositions. The project has also performed at various electronic music festivals worldwide, establishing a reputation for engaging live performances that emphasize sonic immersion.

Kateche's work is frequently associated with the ambient and downtempo genres but also explores elements of experimental and drone music. The project's distinctive sound has influenced newer artists within the electronic and ambient scenes, contributing to the ongoing development of atmospheric music.
