You've got to be into the series to get the whole story unfortunately, but its worth it. Sometimes I can't grasp how David Lynch gets such remarkable performances out of completely mediorce actors. And musicians... For the past 20 years my favourite Lynch movie has remained Eraserhead, great images, great music and atmosphere. The kind of movie which change you... And I do not agree with the "mediocre actors and musicians"... philippe <---------------------------------------------------------------------> http://www.bip-hop.com ambient landscapes, creative and melodic musica... SPACEHADS and MAX EASTLEY : the time of the ancient astronaut [bleep 04] A world of high opera and tipsy beats that then cascades with a metallic pounding. Haunting trumpet melodies over soft drones and textures sets the mood. The music takes on cinematic proportions as the terrain unfolds. Interstellar landscapes are revealed. MAX EASTLEY plays The Arc. A nine foot long mono chord. One string stretched over wood and played with a bow or glass rods. The pitch is changed by flexing the wood. The string can also be shortened with clips. It is then fed into electronic effects. The SPACEHEADS is a duo mixing trumpet and electronics with drums and percussion. Plaintive trumpet calls are looped across pulsing beats that propel us into sheets of metal crashing and vibrating through tiny pick ups cranked to the full and then spun into electronic webs. <--------------------------------------------------------------------->
