Electrolyt – netlabel for heartfelt and sincere electronic music

the amazing seeglass from kent, england made a wonderful version of karbidangeln mit aurica‘s song no matter :

“i awoke one morning by the envelope dropping
through my letterbox, the contents a CD. the track
on the CD was ‘No Matter’. A piece of music that
after listening 3 times I had a feeling for making
a few additions and instruments. Of course I asked
Aurica first, and she gave me the go-ahead. ‘yes,
do as you please. i’am interested to what you will
do with it.’ And so, i did play, EQ and record some
sounds. I returned ‘No Matter’ to karbidangeln mit
aurica and she accepted and enjoyed what i did.
and that, was the finest compliment.”

The opener Picknick starts off with a distorted guitar, driven by a static powerful beat. Cymbals, chimes and percussion build a perfect carpet for Aurica’s voice.

No matter. A monotonous bassline, a minimalistic 4/4 beat and a lonely guitar theme are topped with haunting vocals. Addictive.

Driver. A man in trouble with both the mob and the police. A real sticky situation.
A 6 year old boy is telling us a story, while machine beats, industrial grooves and shimmering layers are pulsating underneath.

She and He. Droning pads and hypnotizing vocals pull us deeper into Karbidangeln Mit Aurica’s bitter sweet universe.

Raindrops. A pluckering beat, mellow pads and a playful melody. Raindrops fall on my head. Beautiful and meditative.

For Nothing. Gloomy and cloudy synth layers, a sublime beat and rhythmical synth lines. A pensive tune with a sad note. Not all glitter is golden.

Sunny Day. Synth layers slowly build up until a marching beat kicks in like a small explosion. Voices and a grooving bass line emerge, and take us along.

After just over 2 years, the Electrolyt Netlabel returns with its sixth release Glacial Series by Karbidangeln Mit Aurica.
Berlin resident Aurica Kurtuschin presents seven rare tracks of previously unreleased material produced over the past decade.
Electronica lovers certainly will remember Karbidangeln Mit Aurica from her tracks In This World and Hypotenuse, released on the Berlin elektro label Das Drehmoment.
Aurica’s music is fueled by love, disarming honesty, a fine sense of humor and a great deal of wisdom not buying into the madness of the mainstream hype.
Glacial Series features the finest living room electronica with elements of synth pop, drone and industrial, as well as ambient, post-punk and experimental. The songs are held together by Aurica Kurtuschin’s distinctive and hypnotic voice, haunting melodies and steady pulsating beats. Electrolyt is ecstatic about Glacial Series, as we believe you definitely will be to.
And as Aurica would say, “Make your own universe..but make it a good one!”
