Very young music lovers is likely the name "Annette Humpe" solely because of their highly successful project "I + I" have become known with which it in this country probably pretty much cleared away everything that is to be awarded in prizes. Successful but Annette has been around since the 80s. She was with her formations "Ideal" as well as "DÖF" an icon of New German Wave, created hits that are in your ears today, initiated solo projects or formed with her sister Inga (now with 2raumwohnung successfully) the duo "Humpe- Humpe ", are bursting with creativity as the longplayer. However, the big time, associated with their name mass success they achieved (except presently with "I + I") never really know what place to impose itself with its inherently very conservative being who diligently tinkers with highly creative output rather in the background, medial and to come to the forefront, accompanied. A very nice and rare property in the vanity fair, the showbiz is now once.
The here present two pieces of silver retrospective gives a fantastic overview of the work of an extraordinarily talented exception of German pop music, a silent all-rounder, which in all its facets is unrivaled in Germany. True musical tidbits that have lost none of its relevance, despite the years and reveal the extremely wide musical spectrum Annette impressively, are supplemented by the well-deserved tribute by very current acts such as "Unholy". Alone the atmospherically extremely dense, fatalistic song "Never mind", ingeniously arranged and produced, justifies (almost) the purchase of the album.
This double CD is now finally have a comprehensive cross-section of a highly talented, quietly and often in the background acting superwoman who can rightly be described as an icon of Deutschpop. Thank you, dear wife Humpe, for all the musical highlights from 3 decades, for this whole package of creativity!
