some creatures romp and roam 
weaving a home of silver thread
finding what they need 
silver threads lead them straight ahead
there’s no guilt no fear
the path appears exactly where they tread

others are ugly prey
dreading the day they bleed ‘em dry
always wrapped so tight
self-made cocoons cannot defy
the defeat that is prophesied  
nice try

do
you
choose which side you’re on?
there’s no escape
once the line is drawn

some creatures romp and roam 
weaving a home of silver thread
others hide and cheat
secretly seeking what they dread
there is no escape
the web is shaping in your head

do
you
choose which side you’re on?
there’s no escape
once the line is drawn

oh, there’s no escape
there’s no escape
there’s no escape
no escape

all of this is yours
all of this is mine
once we’ve drawn the line

The Web

Yeah (life is good)

Ghost

Enter a world of mystery and paradox, where existences are fluid and nothing is quite as it seems...

Seitz /zʌɪts/ is the art-pop project of German-born, Bristol, UK-based singer and pianist Carolin Seitz. Classically trained and heavily influenced by piano goddesses Kate Bush, Tori Amos and Fiona Apple, she combines various keyboard instruments with synthetic and programmed sounds to accommodate both classical and contemporary compositional techniques. Arrangements rich in melodic and rhythmic counterpoint intertwine effortlessly with her vocals, ranging from light and ethereal to dark and seductive. 

After the mid-pandemic release of her first two singles (‘What a sound!’ - Adam Crowther, BBC Bristol), Carolin fell silent due to long COVID. She's back just in time for Halloween '23 with ‘The Web’, a captivating dark pop tune reminiscent of Danny Elfman's haunting scores. Enjoy some creepy, crawly vibes with this comically dramatic exploration of cruelty and injustice among exoskeletal creatures! ‘The Web’ was arranged and produced in collaboration with Kostia Rapoport, a sought after German theatre composer.

The film noir-inspired music video is Carolin’s first venture into videography. It will be released on October 17th. For the time being she is still too unwell to perform live but looking forward to creating more videos for previously unreleased tracks.
