Biography of Aaron Carl
Detroit native Aaron Carl takes on the world, with his outlandish brand of electronic music. Refusing to be forced into any one genre; he writes and produces many different styles, including House, Electro and R&B...
Carl's first LP, Storm, led to him signing with Submerge crew figurehead 'Mad' Mike Banks' Soul City label. Wash It and Crucified were put out and received good response -- unexpectedly right in his hometown. DJ Gary Chandler, known for his straight-ahead R&B and hip-hop flavor, played the cheeky Wash It on local radio and at his personal parties. Make Me Happy and a remix project with Theresa Stringer as well as an EP, Midnite Jams, Vol. 1, followed. Down was the B-side to Wash It, and the record showed the deep influence of the Artist in his falsetto and gasping sexual come-ons. My House came out in 1999, and was remixed ten times and made it to number 36 on Billboard's Hot Dance Music/Club Play charts. Minneapolis flavors from Andre Cymone were revealed on Dance Naked, a pounding prance tune directed by a chant and instructions for radical humanism through dance. Uncloseted came out in 2002, and it brought all of Carl's directions into fluid fruition. Pop, electro, R&B, techno, house, and funk all came out on the autobiographical disc that demanded respect for homosexuals, grieved, and wanted a good party. The beats could be thick like hip-hop's jeep bangers and thin out into techno patterns. Some moments commanded sparkling drama inside fog machine bursts and confrontation. Sexy funk also unfolded on the 16-song player that even took time to go the way of ballad singing, made more interesting by Carl's genderless falsetto. But the bottom line is that the album showed maturity and accessible cohesion by the consistent molding of actual songs fertile with infectious lyrics. And despite the power of his versatility, he still gives mention to the underground side of Detroit's dance history. He is one of few to approach dance music as a whole art and make sounds that can reach various audiences without compromising his vision.
Club anthems like 'Dance Naked' and 'My House' prove that Aaron-Carl is a true force to be reckoned with -- both songs made the Billboard Top 40 Dance/Club charts. House may be his main forte, but AC also finds success in the Electro/Ghettotech scene. 'Down' (where he boldly confesses 'I wanna go down on you, if it's the last thing that I do...') is hailed as one of the biggest records in its genre.
Two Detroit Music Award nominations (Best Electronic Artist, Best Electronic Song)
Three Performers Awards of Detroit nominations (Best Live Vocal - Male, Entertainer of the Year - Male by Male, Best Sound Operator/DJ)
Outmusic Award nomination (Outsong of the Year) ('Bring it On')
Featured in URB Magazine's Next 100 (2002)
AC has remixed artists such as Greg Cash, UR and the legendary Manu DiBango. He has also been remixed by Peter Rauhofer (Club 69), Doc Martin and Timo Maas; just to name a few... 2005 marks the 9th year of success in his music career, yet Aaron-Carl assures us: This is only the beginning...
Performing at the Fuse-In 2005 festival, proving that AC, still got it, and in a major way.
