The Lifesaver 3 Compilation, the yet most comprehensive package of the lifesaver history, sounds like electro, sharp-edged like the vault in a Hague bunker (Lauer), provides data pop with piano crescendo (Fort Romeau), brings the style characteristics of German Schlager music to the breakdance mat (Rolande Garros), lets the bulky lily-of-the-valley bells clang and sends the reverb tails away with the wind (Benedikt Frey). There are several new names to discover: Felix Strahd, Benjamin Milz, Vincent Feit; and of course there a many old acquaintances: Massimiliano Pagliara, Orson Wells, TCB, Chinaski. Roman Flügel brings us “Good News”, however: “From Another Planet.” And Fort Romeau feels “Lost, Again”, but in such somnambulistically beautiful manner that you want to get lost with him instantly and jointly find the great joy. Again and again there are mysterious chants. It’s not required to decipher the specific words in order to get the message: Salvation is near. Salvation is here: the Lifesaver Compilation 3, available on vinyl and for download on Friday, May, 19th 2017.
