BLACK SUN by KARO GLAZER
On “BLACK SUN”, KARO delivers a euphoric guitar riff, spiked with her explosive voice, trance groove and her new artistic vision, which is presented by her new conception of 7” vinyl, which includes DJ TOOLS kit on B side and the solar foil sleeve cover, that lets you safely observe the sun. Working alongside Flemming Rasmussen (Metallica, Rainbow, Mr Big) nad Michał Rosicki (Herbie Hancock, Dr L Subramaniam, George Duke) Karo originally produced the entire track as a 2 minutes long filler song on the album. Half year later, after meeting Christian Holl Buhl, the leader of a Danish rock band Dead Star Talk, Glazer decided to rearrange the song and compose the psychodelic progressive outro. Once the track took shape, she recorded BLACK SUN with her band and her special guests Christian and Gunes from Dead Star Talk and Józef Skrzek - the multi-awarded master of the moog, founder of the legendary Polish band SBB.
“I wanted to write a song that has a flavour of Jake White and moves your body like Led Zeppelin. Nobody would ever expect me to do that, but that’s my roots. I’m coming back home! At the same lyrically I was inspired by Pink Floyd. I looked at the complexities of living in AI and algorithms era, when we as human beings become more and more passive. We mostly pretend on many cases instead of sharing love and support each other. I adore songs that might not be exactly what they appear to be on the surface. This is what makes music powerful.” - Karo Glazer on “BLACK SUN”.
After years of performing contemporary jazz, Karo Glazer returns with BLACK SUN, a single filled with the rebel voice, wailing soul, jittery guitars and buzzing grooves born of frustration, anger, pain and love to mankind. It’s a psychodelic rock Odyssey with progressive influences based on alternative, soul and jazz roots.
