Million Dollar Hotel

Though the track’s title is different, this time inspiration comes from a film.

That’s rare indeed, but U2 are somehow my source of inspiration (together with other irish sounds and rockblues), Daniel Lanois and Wenders too.
About this film, it was the year 2000. Since then, things have quickly changed, our way of life more and more conditioned by technology and public sharing, but I often think that it’s just a (conditioned) illusion.

This intro scene represents somehow my long adolescence … till 2000, I’d have been dead, instead it was the beginning of a new era (if I like it or not).
I played with my own memory about the film, or better: with my feelings about the film, watching the scene just yesterday, when I tried listening to my music with it.
 

Freaks are back!

You know, this film is a masterpiece used and abused. Anyway, this track by Black Horses (& SpiresVortex guitar) works perfectly with it. Have a good Freaks Show!

Distant Sounds

… or DISTANT GALAXIES

A painter is lost if he finds himself.
That’s wonderful, said by an octogenarian artist.
MAX ERNST

NAISSANCE D’UNE GALAXIE, 1969 – Max Ernst

Naissance d’une galaxie (Birth of a galaxy) was created in the year of the first moon landing. Man had conquered the lunar symbol of the yearnings of Romanticism (a cultural epoch so important for Ernst) and found only empty, rocky silence. As if by way of a replacement, Ernst allows a new galaxy, its circular disc patterned with dots, to arise out of the nebula of primeval forms inhabiting the lower border of the picture. This galaxy is located in the imagination – and in the picture seen here. Entirely in keeping with Ernst’s fantastical natural history, the eternal, ethereal realm and the here and now of artistic invention converge in the moment of this picture.

.. King

This must be the shortest and unusual track I’ve ever created, but sometimes inspiration comes from lots of mistakes….
Maybe I should have named this simply King Kong.

Somewhere

I’m going to delete my asocial accounts (not this), so I’ll be just HERE and THERE in your ears (and possibly in your heart).

Ectoplasm

There’s no prove about the existence of ECTOPLASM, but there’s no doubt about the creative mind of some magicians. So any creative product of our mind is really an Ectoplasm! Or not?
I wonder how this girl was able to obtain such an effect in 1912 …
