I suppose one day, this key of mine will be in use.
When the roots of the trees have grown over the ruins, of what used to be my city.
When the gunpowder in my chest will fade, as the time goes on.
Until then, I’ll let the dawn fall on.
And wait until I can call a this same old place a home.

Until that moment I’ll browse through the field of trees, with golden appels.
My dream of peaceful days are as sweet as persimmons.
My memory of Omas voice as vivid as the violets, she used to murmur quietly -
No man is free until the we accept kindness, until then we shall be wise and clever and more quiet than the mice, do take my word for it. I’ll save you the trouble and give some peace of mind.

Crying feels as bitter as holding sumac above my eyes,
I try my best to understand that emptiness is what welcomes me, but that does not feel right.
But I still believe that this old key of mine, will kiss a familiar door, at least one last time.

Taken from Ursula Sereghy's debut album 'OK Box' (G&P019), out September 2021

With a background in playing jazz and formative years of playing saxophone in a live band, Prague-based Ursula Sereghy stepped out of the hustle in order to focus, all while becoming a regular at the local Synth Library. A space where she found support of the musically and politically like-minded, and could nourish her newfound passion for experimenting with machines and exploring the limitless possibilities of sound design. An extensive period of voluntary detachment from  everyday life during the pandemic gave rise to the stunningly confident debut album 'OK Box' fabricated by this dark horse of a producer.

The 38th release of katharsis and our final release of 2023 is the prodigious compilation "Embracing Darkness, Absorbing Light" featuring a vast array of artist beloved by the label. Throughout the grandiose line-up of the 36 tracks, the listener is absorbed by various differing interpretations of the theme outlined in the title of the album. Some of the invited artist went full into introverted progressions and meditative sounds, while others focused on aggressive rhythms or anthemic melodies. But even though the styles and techniques of the songs differ from each other, the artists seem to have some commonality in their sonic palettes that binds it all together in a mutual love for music as a healing force of nature <3
