Aromabar is all about creating authentic sounds versus manufactured radio fodder. With playful airiness, the coherent ensemble behind Aromabar combines electrified pop, digital folk and R&B into a neat, enjoyable package. Yes, there is often a shiny surface, but look out for the edgy kicks that are the essence of well-defined tracks, as Andreas Kinzl points out. For each track to stand on its own is more crucial to us than on the second album. We experimented a lot to merge songwriting and production completely. For this latest album, Aromabars vocal line-up includes singer Karin Steger and guest vocalists Pollard Berrier, Big John Whitfield and Nappy G -a well-balanced group that easily shift gears between lower tempo love ballads to spicier social critiques. Singer/songwriter Pollard Berrier, originating from Denver, Colorado, adds something from home to the haunting ballads -Calling- and -Nothings Wrong-. Nappy G, currently busting wide with Turntables on the Hudson, and one of the most requested New Yorker rapper/DJs, performs alongside golden-voiced Karin Steger on -My Conclusion-and -Desire-. And keeping it real with some old skool Soul flavour is -Big John Whitfield on -The Message- and -Rise Up-. Music gets interesting when traces are obliterated, boundaries become blurred and genres dissolve, and that s exactly where Aromabar are with their third album.
