Krakatit is the name for an explosion with an unimaginably destructive effect. Its inventor himself, the engineer Prokop, is frightened by it, but for many others it represents the desired instrument of absolute power. In Karel Čapek's novel of the same name, published in 1924, Prokop's attempts and their consequences were purely the author's vision. On the other hand, the film adaptation, which was created not long after the Second World War and the attacks on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, apparently partly reflects real events. Apart from the urgent moral appeal, it still captivates today with its delirious atmosphere and visual ingenuity in real exteriors and fantastic backdrops

A message from the movie that is still very relevant and very dangerous today, said by the character of the demagogue

Demagogue: "Where has the victory of democracy, government, led you? To humiliation and hunger, to confusion and helplessness! Noble nations are in want; for those who were destined to rule have been worn out by the lot! We are chosen by providence to raise from the dust the chosen nations and they showed the inferiors their place.

The rain is over:
South Mountain puffs out
Spring clouds.

(Tr. Sōiku Shigematsu)

One of the most influencial modern Japanese writers, Natsume Soseki’s literary career started in 1903, with a series of haiku and renga published on various literary magazines. Between 1900 and 1903 he studied at the UCL in London, but this proved to be quite a dramatic experience for the young Soseki:

“The two years I spent in London were the most unpleasant years in my life. Among English gentlemen I lived in misery, like a poor dog that had strayed among a pack of wolves.“

Despite this, when Soseki returned to Japan he exploded into prolific writing activity.

Tension (naviarhaiku485)

It was a pleasure working with Andreas Kitzmann's track https://soundcloud.com/andreas-kitzmann-27370936/disquiet0591, thanks @andreas-kitzmann-27370936!

With such gorgeous material, there wasn't much more to do than plug in my acoustic and play the guitar into the Chase Bliss Mood (so may not be immediately recognisable as guitar, apart from a bit at the end that I left relatively straightforward). Some minimal flavouring of the reverberating & delaying kind, with the dosage slightly higher for the purer acoustic sounds towards the end. 

The Tête-à-Tête pic taken at Tate Modern London seemed very appropriate for this week's assignment.

I love listening to & creating Ambient, Dark Ambient & Experimental electronica (and the occasional beatscape). I have no professional aspirations  - I just really like creating music / manipulating sounds. It's my way of relaxing after a hard day at the office. All my tracks are produced using monitoring headphones (Audix A140) so I recommend that you listen to my music through headphones. My DAW of choice is FL Studio. I also use Reason every now & then. 


To the artists I follow; I do my best to try to listen to as many of your tracks as possible each night (I listen to each track all the way through - you went through the effort to create a track so you deserve to have it heard in full). If I miss a recent upload of yours, please forgive me...

Thank you for taking the time to visit my little corner of the soundcloud. 

Always remember; To create original output, consume unusual input.
