Get Well Soon is Berlin based songwriter and producer Konstantin Gropper whose burgeoning reputation in his home country should be matched over here after this debut double-A single.
The oddly named You/Aurora/You/Seaside is a widescreen piece of melancholy featuring a morose rhythm interjected by sharp handclaps and the lingering sorrow of a Latin brass section. Christmas In Adventure Parks is even better. Imagine if Pulp went around Europe visiting grand cathedrals for a year instead of hanging around charity shops in Sheffield, then add some glorious choral harmonies, church bells and a plucked banjo. Joyful, sad, funny and heartbreakingly lovely.
