GO FIND, THE
Title:
Miami
Label:
MORR MUSIC (GERMANY)
Format:
CD
Price:
$14.00
Catalog #:
MORR 047CD
A one-man band from Belgium, with fellow Morr artist
Styrofoam
(
Arne Van Petegem
) on production. The face
and the voice behind it belongs to
Dieter Sermeus
. Where Styrofoam always tends to take an introspective look
inside,
The Go Find
takes the other route by being positively extroverted. Sermeus presents himself as a very
self-confident songwriter, whose catchy, yet sometimes melancholic pop music bypasses the brain and hits the heart
directly. His songs feature the bitter sweetness of some of
The Postal Service
's tracks on the one hand. On the
other, they also bring to mind the subtle glow
The Notwist
presented on
Neon Golden
. The Go Find occupies
the intersection of both bands, which Dieter refers to as being highly influential to him.

Over The Edge vs. What I Want
once again musically documents the friendship between
Dieter Sermeus
, the
face and voice behind
The Go Find
, and fellow Belgian
Arne Van Petegem
, whom you might know as Morr Music
recording artist,
Styrofoam
. Dieter provides the "Late Night Remix" of his very own "Over The Edge," slowing down
the original's pace, twisting his own vocals in a very subtle way and laying down a transparent carpet of warm and
glitchy soundscapes.

MORR 075CD
Picture this: a warm early summer night. A golden ocean. A magnificent view. In the background, a record of modern pop
songs is playing, nonchalant and elegant in equal measures, with touches of rock, dance and singer-songwriter
introspection. Often, the tracks have an air of
Fleetwood Mac
's smooth chic, which they so unforgettably displayed
on their classic
Rumours
album. Other songs bask in the naked, comfortable warmth of just a guitar, a voice and a
microphone. Chords tumble out of a well-traveled Hammond organ, 25-year-old analog synths buzz and purr in the distance,
and yet none of these songs sounds retro, not even for a split second. When
Dieter Sermeus
set out to write a
follow-up to his 2004
The Go-Find
debut,
Miami
, he felt he wanted to move away from solitary songwriting
and recording, and involved his live band from a very early stage. Together, they crafted a collection of "good-sounding,
danceable pop tunes" in a studio in his Antwerp hometown, which provided a warm and friendly environment, full of ancient
keyboards and rare Moogs. The crisp electronic sounds which adorned most of the
Miami
tracks have all but
disappeared: the new songs sound softer and often more sparse, with bass and drums painting twinkling constellations onto
the night sky. With their precisely-placed rhythms and transparent sound, they feel instantly familiar, but upon repeated
listening, a wealth of exquisite details and infectious melodies is gradually revealed. There's the aged
synthie-transistors of "Beautiful Night" opening the album; or "Dictionary," which starts agreeably reserved, with dry
drums and a pithy bass, until more ingredients are carefully added: hand claps, hook-lines, precise delays -- neon light.
In "Downtown" however, moonshine softly lights up acoustic guitars and an amiable voice tells of how memories fade away.
In the end, this is a record about looking back at the past, and searching for clues about how to approach the future.
