No Exit

"I feel you there, in every pore. Your silence clamors in my ears. You can nail up your mouth, cut your tongue out — but you can’t prevent your being there. Can you stop your thoughts? I hear them ticking away like a clock, tick-tock, tick-tock, and I’m certain you hear mine." - Jean Paul Sartre

A little of this absolute and blue infinity Would be enough 
To lighten the burden of these times 
And to cleanse the mire of this place.

MESSAGE FROM JAPANESE WALLPAPER :war peace rocket ships was recorded in various beds across three continents in the first half of 2011. The idea was hatched on a stormy wet day in downtown Jerusalem, where I spent the last few months of 2010. After a sudden bout of inspiration, I set about to gather some things I could use to create music. Armed with several wooden floorboards, an ancient Casio keyboard, a microphone, laptop and a dated copy of Ableton Live, I set out to record. The result is this EP, inspired by war, peace and rocket ships.

Trap doors to endless wisdom

Μας πήρε 5 ώρες να διανύσουμε απόσταση, που υπό κανονικές συνθήκες πέρνει μόνο 5 λεπτά, αλλά τα καταφέραμε και ήταν πράγματι η πιο κατανυκτική, η πιο μαγική μέρα τη ζωής μου. Δεν ένιωθα την ανάγκη να βγάλω φωτογραφίες, ειδικά όταν ήμουνα μέσα στο Μεγάλο Ναό. Ήξερα οτι αυτά που βίωνα εκείνη τη στιγμή, δεν θα τα ξεχνούσα ποτέ στη ζωή μου.
