11 Months, 11 Electronic Music Releases By Worldwide Groove Corporation

After working tirelessly for the last 11 months, Kurt Goebel and Ellen Tift have kept on task toward their goal of delivering one new electronic music release a month for a year. Worldwide Groove Corporation’s penultimate release in their Year of the Groove combines cinematic strings, electronic synths, and deep metaphorical lyrics calling humanity to a higher purpose. The new song "Human", penned and performed by Tift, has their trademark sophistication combined with epic orchestral elements that keep the listener hooked until the song’s dramatic end.

"I wrote this purely from my own creative inspiration," says Tift. "After reading so many headlines and thinking ’oh the humanity’, I just needed to get out my angst." So she did what many songwriters do and worked it out in song. "This is a refreshing break from writing for clients and specific song pitches," says Tift. "Most of the time I don’t get the luxury of just writing for myself." That is not the only reason this song is special to Worldwide Groove Corporation, as the recording also features background vocals by many of Ellen Tift’s family members, ranging in age from 8 to 72. "We took our laptop and microphone with us at Christmas and set up a mini recording studio in my parents’ basement," says Tift. Exposed pink insulation served for sound absorption and a Playskool desk was their work surface. All in all, nine of her family members lent their voices to this track, none of whom are professional vocalists. "It wasn’t about getting pristine vocals," says Tift,"the whole message of the song is about human beings loving one another, and I wanted the people I love most in this world to be the voices on this recording. I’m thrilled with the result."

Their next release will mark the end of their Year of the Groove, and they are saying the final installment in this series will be unlike anything else they’ve done in the project. "Without giving too much away, I’ll just say that what is coming next has been in the works for at least 4 years and it will show the diversity of our production styles more than anything else we’ve done," says Goebel.
