about

IRTH are an electronic “ghost pop” duo from BC, Canada who combine intensely emotional, interweaving vocal lines with relaxed, minimal beats and sparse instrumentation to produce soundscapes that are as haunted as they are seductive. Choosing to abandon laptop-based production, the duo create and perform their material using samplers, live instruments and an arsenal of vintage gear, analog tape effects, spring verbs and dusty old tubes. The result? A unique sound that bridges earth and wire - a place where electricity meets and dances with the naked, human body.

LYRICS:
"China Shop" (IRTH)

Make me a china shop so I will learn how to be With the most delicate parts you offer me
And I am sorry that I turn everything
Into my own game - into my own win.

And you have got me grievin' For all I'll never be
For all I've never been
You have got me grievin'
For all I'll never be For all I've never been

Make me a telescope so I will never be a part
From your most tiny bits in your deep crater star heart Or make me an air balloon so I'll always float above That great murky mud of our precious needy love

And you have got me grievin' For all I'll never be
For all I've never been
You have got me grievin'
For all I'll never be For all I've never been

I wanna be your paper
I wanna feel your brush on my skin

Make me an armor impervious to steel
If I never have to feel then I'll never have to heal Or make me a casket so I could just get it over with And die into this excavating pleasure that you give

I wanna be your paper
I wanna feel your brush on my skin
