So where does this come from? Had they not broken up? What was the
last one: "Sonn und Mond", that compilation album from 2009,
tracing their long path from fledgling Rocksteady roots to their
very own twisted and charming concoction of alpine world dub
chanson bliss? Wait, there was another, in 2010, again released on
Pingipung, with brassy tunes and the feat of casually putting the
dub back into dubstep: "We so horny", as if all the acclaim it was
to meet from the serious crowd was just a joke. And then silence.
They must have run out of ideas, right? End of the line,
eventually, and mission accomplished.
Well, ideas are a dime a dozen. They are not what it's all about.
Austrodub, as they once succinctly put it, means total commitment,
naivety, and not fearing failure. And nothing else. With a stance
like that, you don't run out of ideas. The best come through your
door with foreign tongues and good food and an open heart anyway.
And when they don't, it's just as well. hey-o-hansen were
essentially a duo, and life put many hundred kilometers between
them. That's what happened. Michael Wolf had to return to their
mutual hometown of Innsbruck, still a painter and now also an art
teacher; Helmut Erler stayed in Berlin as a mastering engineer and
occasional solo musician. Five years passed.
Now this. What is it?
It is crisp and icy, angular and brittle, mysterious and massive,
crystalline and breathing. It is as free and tight as they've ever
been, and it will rub you the wrong way for a while. You'll want
to play it on 45. You'll wonder where that pull of heavy, empty
space is coming from, so raw and different from their earlier
ambition towards a smooth and luscious flow. You'll be tempted to
call it electroacoustic dub. With rectangles. But it's not about
genres. It wasn't about genres in 2010 either, when dubstep ended
up serving as the foil. Here, Michael Wolf selected classic
riddims as a basis for each of the tracks, to make clear that it's
not about composition. Well what is it all about then, after all?
We just said it: It's Austrodub. Nearly became the album's title,
too.
At home in the mountains, having been a pioneering climber, Wolf
would tell you that taking a break is essential when you've
exhausted yourself, and that you should then continue at a slow
pace. Helmut Erler conceived of an elaborate setup of half-time
renderings and microtemporal variation, and brought their 2011
backing-tracks for concerts that never happened to a fresh life.
And here they are, molted to the shape of a true monolith. There
was no master plan, just a sudden invitation for them to play at a
festival in Innsbruck this June. And so there it is, Sno Dub, born
from the tides and pressures of passing life, and you're allowed
to dance.
