إِرْهـاقْ (Burnout)

Typically, when it comes to "burnout," we come to think about the humdrum of life and the duties and the obligations that we are shackled to. Yet, there exists another type of burnout; The burnout from people. In such burnouts, you try your best to be the best version of yourself - you try to help, you try to advise, you try to teach, to love, to… to… to…, just to find yourself standing there alone among people who understand nothing about what you are doing, or how you feel - all they know is how to judge you and that you must comply to their ideas. Prolonged exposure to such environment is definitely to leave one exhausted, and burned out, and numb at some point; as if they don't exist, but they live.

Technicality: One quick simple shot that I thought of, and this time I shot it using my modified camera, and 50mm lens, fitted with B+W 092 infrared filter. I was actually hoping to get more colors since the threshold of this filter is low (~650nm) which means it should allow some color in, but that didn't happen exactly as I've envisioned it. Since the light is coming solely from the burning match, I didn't use any speedlites here, and I think it is just about enough for the dramatic effect in the circle of darkness around the set. One side of me think this is too simple and should have more to it, and one side says it is minimal and perfect the way it is; I'll leave it for others to judge. Worth noting that last year (I think?) I made a shot (long exposure one) of a burning candle with the same title, and using a chessboard as a prop. However, I didn't quite like that shot much for some reason.

FOG
Ether Teeth
2003 U.S. 2xLP pressing

Some #minimal #abstract #electronic music for last spin of the night.

Although I was familiar with other Ninja Tune artists in the #90s & early 2000s, I had never heard of Fog (AKA Andrew Broder) until about 5 years ago, when I took a blind gamble on this record from a used bin.

That decision was solely based on the fact that it was on Ninja Tune.

It has since become a late night listening favorite in the Ape house.

nublo roboten - un silencio pesado
(Electronic, Minimal, Synthwave, Darkwave /Kernkrach Records)

"Was klingt, wie ein Science-Fiction-Roman, ist tatsächlich ein Ein-Mann-Musikprojekt aus Guatemala, das zwischen minimalistischem Synth, analogem Bastelgeist und einer tiefen Punksozialisation oszilliert."

Lagartija Nick beschreibt euch in der Review noch ausführlicher den Sound der Platte.
vinyl-keks.eu/nublo-roboten-un

Eine grüne Schallplatte mit einem Etikett in der Mitte, auf dem die Titel und Details aufgeführt sind. Die Schallplatte wird von oben gezeigt.
Albumcover mit einem minimalistischen geometrischen Layout mit einem Gittermuster. Der Text umfasst "nublo", "roboten" und "un silencio pesado", mit einem hauptsächlich braunen Hintergrund und hellblauen Gitterlinien.
"DER DRUCKVOLLE BEAT PULSIERT UND BILDET DAS RÜCKGRAT DER SONGS UND MACHT DAS ALBUM EXTREM TANZBAR. DIE MELODIEN SIND TYPISCH FÜR MINIMAL WAVE EHER IM HINTERGRUND." VINYL -KEKS.EU
