In 2008 Swiss indie-pop-combo Electric Blanket made quite an impression with its charming single «My Eyes my Heart». The song was chosen for «Sounds! Summer Hit» by Swiss National Radio DRS3 and even made it into rotation at Berlin based Radio Station MotorFm. Now, with its new album «How Much Peanut Butter», the band takes us on an emotional roller coaster ride; From the easiness of «My Eyes My Heart» to the anger of «Blood In My Face» back to the innocence of title song «How Much Peanut Butter». Out of purring to growling guitars, Lo-Fi Synths, joyous drums and handclaps, Electric Blanket conjures a refreshingly headstrong soundscape. In the epicenter, singer Helenka struggles for happiness. After the electronic approach on its first album «It's Ok It's Not Ok» (2006), the band was up for a more spontaneous take. So the songs for «How Much Peanut Butter» were written in a very simple, Lo-Fi-way by use of a guitar and a Casio-Kids-Keyboard. This still reflects a lot in the final album. Especially perky accrued the title song «How Much Peanut Butter». Helenka & guitarrist Patrick wrote and recorded the song along with keyboarder and longtime friend Oli Kuster during a live radio show. They even integrated the vacuum cleaner of the passing cleaning crew and what arose, pleased so much, that it had to be on the album. With their 12 track album «How Much Peanut Butter» Electric Blanket create a substantial and soothing universe of confidence, which is going to delight many hearts. About Electric Blanket Antsy of the boredom at the academy of arts, singer Helenka Danis and guitarrist Patrick Lerjen cancelled their studies. "Let's do something real instead" they said to each other and started the Band «Electric Blanket». What began as machine-music with a strong influence from electronica evolved step by step to the bands current headstrong mix of indie-, lo-fi-, and synth-pop. What stayed the same since day one, is the bands commitment to unconventional pop songs around Helenkas neurotic cosmos. With shows at such importent venues like the «Jazz Café» London, the international festival «Rock Oz Arenes Avenches» and rotation at radio stations MotorFM (Berlin), Virus (Swiss national), Couleur3 (Swiss national) and DRS 3 (Swiss national) the band has proved its potential. The 7inch vinyl single series With their 7inch vinyl single series Electric Blanket satisfy their thirst to release music off the beaten track. «I Never Ate That Bird» (incl. Round Table Knights remix) and «My Eyes My Heart» (incl. Seelenluft remix) whet the appetite for the new album. True to their band name, Electric Blanket is now here to warm our souls.
