It just dawned on me that Die Heiterkeit are amazing.

Die Heiterkeit – Heller Morgen

“How bright is the morning
How dark the night
How long do we have to wait
Until you wake up”

This is our second time featuring Die Heiterkeit and the laughter remains brittle, at the very least. Their new single “Heller Morgen” (Bright Morning) from the classic double album “Pop & Tod I + II” is another magesterial, minimalist elctro-choral masterpiece. Dignifed, stately, mounful and unbearably beautiful, it’s a must listen. A word to the wise – Pop & Tod I + II will assume it’s rightful place in the patheon of great German records, maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow – but soon and for the rest of your life.
