Rain EP by Torin Bell is now available for free download

Rain EP by the alternative hip hop/electronica producer Torin Bell is now available for free download on Electrolyt!

[elyt10] Torin Bell - Rain EP

The EP is a collection of three short instrumentals filled with peace, tranquility and joy. Beats, playful melodies and energetic chord progressions. Sometimes distant, always cool and unbelievably beautiful. Amazing tunes that stay with you long after listening.

“The project is centered around water and each track uses the rain within it’s backdrop to provide a soothing white noise alongside various synth waves to create the coming and going of the rain in the spring. I wanted to create a atmosphere of peace and the rain usually helps in doing so.” (Torin Bell)

[elyt10] Torin Bell – Rain EP is available in various download formats and includes hi-quality double sided cover art designed by Susana Licéaga.

Get your free copy on Bandcamp or on our page on Soundcloud.

Enjoy!

Kid Schurke & Brain Hall – Haen Zikum Ulus [elyt09]

Electrolyt proudly presents

Kid Schurke & Brain HallHaen Zikum Ulus

At the Brainhall synapses twitch to the beat with joy, when Roman Schürch and Andreas Glauser launch their machines. Frequencies are modulated, punctured, tweaked and pitched. In doing so, the tones and textures of the five tracks are kept well in flux by the fixed rhythm scaffolds and repetitive sequences. Due to the analogue origin of Kid Schurke and Brain Hall’s machine music, the overall sound is organic and warm. This is glitch and hop, industrial noise, ambient and improv jam. Sometimes there are subtle references to the electronic music pioneers of the 70s and sometimes memories of ecstatic synth-thunderstorms on dance floors in the early 90s appear as split-second flashbacks. The long tracks leave space for the music to develop and evolve. Quiet parts turn into tight electro funk monsters and beats disappear in an ocean of frequency modulations. It’s so exciting and inspiring. For the love of electronic music: Haen Zikum Ulus

Elyt09 is produced, mixed and mastered by
Kid Schurke (Roman Schürch) and Brain Hall (Andreas Glauser)
at Brainhall Studio Zürich, Switzerland, 2016.
Haen Zikum Ulus cover artwork is created by Susana Licéaga in Mexico City, 2017

Kid Schurke & Brain Hall to release on Electrolyt, Share video

Kid Schurke and Brain Hall live

Electrolyt is very happy to introduce Kid Schurke & Brain Hall.

The Swiss duo consists of Andreas Glauser, an experimental artist and musician, who is running the Zürich based art production label brainhall, and music producer and synthesizer wizzard Roman Schürch who aside from his own music has produced numerous remixes for various projects such as Saalschutz, Egotronic, Sedlmeir, Karpartenhund, Tim & Puma Mimi and many others.
The two musicians exclusively use analogue gear such as the Korg Monotribe and manipulated mixing boards to create their amazing and unique electronic sound textures and beat patterns.
On February 24th Kid Schurke & Brain Hall will release their newest ep “Haen Zikum Ulus” on Electrolyt. Ahead of the release the duo shares a visually stunning real-time video synthesis created by Roberto Vitalini of bashiba.com. The short clip features an excerpt of Kid Schurke & Brain Hall’s track “Als ich alles wusste”, which will also be included on their upcoming EP. Enjoy!

Lipstick – Escape To Mars out now!!

After Media Monster and Lost And Found Files, Krystal Bell and Andreas Dorwarth return to Electrolyt with their newest release Escape To Mars.
The Ep is featuring 4 tracks of electro-psychedelic bliss, once again proving the duo’s ability to create ear-worm-quality melodies, embedded deeply in tracks, which stray far beyond the usual conventions of modern dance music. At the same time, Lipstick pay respect to their roots in old-school electro, house, minimal, dreampop and spaced out indie-psychedelia.
Escape To Mars has been mastered and additionally mixed with great skill and understanding for Lipstick’s sound by Florian Malicke, who is part of the Lipstick family since day one and who is one of the creative masterminds behind the German spacerock- electronica band Messer Brüder.
The beautiful artwork has been designed by Susana Licéaga of the Mexican dreampop-electronica project Aeropuerto.
Escape To Mars is now available for streaming and downloading on our Bandcamp.
