Goldschatz is a duo made up of Swiss guitarist and singer Timothy Jaromir and Canadian artist Rykka, who create beautiful melodies that reflect life on the road. “Twin Flame” is a five-track EP that takes listeners through wilderness terrain while illustrating the connections shared.
The EP opens with “Keep The Fire Burning” – an engaging track that draws listeners in with its gorgeous harmonies and catchy alt-country groove. Goldschatz sets an inviting soundscape as the launchpad to their musical EP journey. “Keep The Fire Burning” serves as their melodic invitation for others to join them!
Within the third track, “Free Rolling”, we find a shift of energy. This catchy tune showcases tastings of rock influences while featuring Timothy and Rykka’s intricate vocal harmonies – captivating audiences on an energetic musical ride.
“Be Here In The Morning”, the EP’s closing track, showcases Timothy’s soothing vocals over gentle strumming of an acoustic guitar to create an intimate environment. Rykka joins in to add her hauntingly beautiful harmonies into an immersive storytelling track which leaves an everlasting impression. It truly leaves us breathless – yet mesmerising all at the same time.
Goldschatz captures the spirit of “Van Life” perfectly through their music. Their tracks capture both their love for each other as well as life on the road and stem from American folk tradition, but with a distinctive signature all their own. Their song, Twin Flame is no exception as one cannot help but draw parallels between “Twin Flame” and artists such as Angus & Julia Stone or The Civil Wars who share such heart-wrenching melodies.
“Twin Flame”, as the EP title encapsulates, perfectly captures their music’s intense magnetic attraction and connection. Poets often use this term to refer to two souls who share one essence and this mesmeric attraction is palpable throughout this EP.
Recorded in Winterthur, Switzerland with production by Giuliano Sulzberger, Goldschatz’s new EP is an ode to both Switzerland’s wild beauty and Western Canadian forests – its sound being inspired by these unique environments which played such an instrumental role in their creative process. Their music shows this influence vividly.
Fans will have an exciting opportunity to see “Twin Flame” live when the band embarks on a tour through Switzerland this autumn. These performances guarantee an emotional experience loaded with tunes that entice people to close their eyes and listen.
Goldschatz’s “Twin Flame” EP is an emotional journey across continents. Timothy Jaromir and Rykka showcase honest songwriting, soulful harmonies and engaging storytelling – three hallmarks of great acoustic folk music that make “Twin Flame” worth listening to for any fan of heartfelt melodies or authentic storytelling alike! You won’t want to miss “Twin Flame”.
