Helmut – „God in the Middle“ + Exclusive Interview

1. Thank you very much for your time! Before we introduce your new release to our readers – what kind of drink would you recommend to sip on while they listen to your new music?

I only recently discovered that matcha latte with oatmilk can be a wonderful thing on a cold winter day.

2. Please give us an update about – new single, new album, tour dates, new videos?!

All of the above, please. I’m currently working on those things. My new album is pretty much finished and I have some skilled friends I’d like to collaborate with on videos and the live show. Still careful not to jinx it but I’m positive that more good things will happen soon.

3. We live in times of many conspiracy theories. Which, harmless theory would you wish were true? (For example Dinos living inside Earth or E.T. living in a home in California)

That love conquers all.

4. What fashion style or brand would best describe your music?

I’m really rather bad at naming things. I would like to think one that stays in flux while staying true to its emotional core or something like that. Slightly melancholy but cute outfits maybe.

5. Tell us more about your songs! Topics! Message!?

My lyrics almost always start from a subconscious place. Looking for melody and rythm I ususally sing fragmentary gibberish that I then in many many sessions mold into finished songs. They’re mostly about humans being human. Emotional messy humans being emotionally messy humans. But the songs also do change their meaning for me over time.

6. Beside music, do you have any special talents?

I make a mean crêpe and I’m trying hard to improve my tennis.

7. Name 5 things we all should know about you as an artist?!

None. You should be entirely free to project.

8. The road so far…. who or what was your biggest support??

My unconditional love for music. It feels great knowing that I’ll always have that.

Collaborating with the other kids and fun and sincere times with close friends and strangers alike are quite important for my wellbeing, too : )

9. A question you’d like to answer, but never been asked in an interview before?! + Answer pls

Can I interest you in a piece of freshly baked apple pie?

Yes, thank you kindly.
