fünfzehn songs von drei der erfolgreichsten wiener neustädter bands der frühen 80er jahre (x-beliebig, dämmerattacke und bates) werden ausschließlich von ehemaligen musikern dieser bands neu interpretiert. das vehikel für diese neuaufnahmen nennt sich bezeichnenderweise totgeglaubt. kann man den spirit von punk und new wave wieder beleben? den neongrellen zeitgeist jener tage mit dem dunklen schlund der gegenwart verbinden? ewig seine jugend verschwenden? man höre, fühle, urteile selbst. totgeglaubt, so unser urteil, ist quicklebendig. und hat viel zu sagen, ohne sagen zu erzählen.

the new release from help presents works from various help-releated artists. another release from the arhus-imprint that doesn’t directly state club-proof, but still, this one wouldn t mind having a spin or two by your local dance pusher.the opening track is by central, a ripe house tune with both melodies and good-vibes - probably the closest this young man has come to making an anthem. next up is the four piece group maizena with an ambiguous rhythmical ambient-house jam from the area of denmark with the least rainfall. on the b-side you’ll find a raw and to the point recording of dj sports and c.k joining ph 1 in his throwback techno-studio in the suburbs of arhus. next up is the long awaited debut from manmade deejay, who has been cooking a floating rhythm jam for this 5 course meal of modern danish cuisine. last but not least amsterdam-based kaap joined central on a fine day at rubber studios to create this dreamy and galloping ride. all in all this genuine piece of wax is filled with local devotion and love from the help-crew. thanks for the support!

the three tracks travel in many different directions. speaking directly to all the dreamers, the result is a surprising cross-over in which synthesized european music gets injected by imaginary tropical visions. the record is opening with the inner mind percussive ambient « chekema », an animistic incantation that will please all those who see parties as modern ritual gatherings. the jazzy wave of « get enough » cracks open the b-side. it’s a foggy street jam in which the cold cr-68 rhythm balances perfectly with the warm organ chords of the crumar. closing things off is the spectral reggae song “love so high”, a desperate cry from a polar explorer stranded on an iceberg drifting towards the carribean. heartbreaking.
