Watch this animated short film by Vincent Morin created for
helico bacter's "Held"
:





This is so light, it will make you fly, and yet still so „earthy“ 
that the feeling remains, it’s real. It’s a constant melancholic 
smile from a person you have known all your life without realizing it. 
It’s easy listening for the heavy-hearted, which is not to say, that 
it’s in any way shallow, but over and over (and over and over 
and over and over...) a joy to listen to.
Like walking through a busy small town, watching people doing 
whatever they do. Do you know those moments, when everything 
and everyone suddenly looks meaningful and interesting? In this 
case, this moment lasts 34 minutes, with lots of piano-sound, 
complex beats, modestly shining melodies and samples which 
fit in so perfectly like the distinguished gentleman with the calm 
voice, asking you for the way, when you have the time and knowledge 
to answer that question. There is a specific peak at „The Ever-Green-T-Shirt“. 
The perfect tune to skip and jump with your favouite person 
(ideal case: your alter ego) on a sunday afternoon on your bed. 
Or a dewy lawn, or a dirty clubfloor....Whatever! Do not download
it and the thought that you’ve missed out something great will haunt 
you for the rest of your life! Seriously. Erm, well, so, yeah: we do highly 
recommend this. Like: seriously! Also recommended: to put „held“ on a tape. 
Success guaranteed, whatever the occasion for the tape was. The man 
behind this really good record (actually, that would be a sufficient 
description, everything else is just inappropriate, but fun. 
But most inappropriate things are fun, right?) even offers a beautiful 
and sad video for „Held“ which you can watch here. What’s up with 
the tiger in the end? Any ideas?
