Signs of returning to standard hermit mode: filling the office with new film purchases.
WARREN ELLIS LTD Articles.
Finally got myself a physical copy of this. Realised I didn’t yet have one while talking to Ariela Kristantina about it the other night – I only ever had it on digital. It is completely stagey, completely artificial, and completely wonderful. One to study. (Again.)
These just arrived, and they’re gorgeous. Status update in a bit when I can function properly. Just going to stare at these for a little while.
Belated birthday gift. Now racked next to the complete QUINCY. I have a weakness for American 70s crime shows, what can I say. The complete COLUMBO will go next to them one day. Who knew KOJAK had 118 episodes, though?! Good god.
I first watched this on VHS, in the basement of the department store I worked at for a year in the mid-Eighties, while I was supposed to be doing admin stuff of some kind. It’s lived in my head ever since, and it’s a joy to finally have a decent copy of it.
(Re-)Building my Jean Cocteau library. Necessary things. I’m gonna need more space in here.
Visionary Hours is a project of Hayden Berry, a musician from Hebden Bridge, UK that combines the sound of strings, guitar, voice, flute and clarinet, to create slowly-evolving modern classical pieces, full of space and gently revealed micro melodies.
Hypnotic. Magnificent.
Recorded in various undisclosed caves and secret locations within the French Pyrenean landscape, we are now witness to a very unique channelling of forces emanating from these two singular ritual acts… The conductive element within these recordings is water, sound sources recorded from cave lakes, streams and rivers are featured through out these recordings, carefully merged with stark, cavernous drone soundscapes and disquieting chants, guiding us to unknown territories as we venture within these singular chambers and places.
Wonky photo – see previous post about incoming new coffee machine hahah
