I see, this is what it sound like when you're drowning in frozen water. At first, it's a bit scary, then you can hear the distorted noises of people trying to save you, all while you slowly feel yourself slipping away. The haunting melody of the depths beckon you as you slowly feel yourself fading. The sounds still exist, but they seem so much more distant than before. Your body still struggles as your mind slowly begins the give in to the pull of the tides. You hear the desperation of the frantic beings above, who try to reach you, but their muffled cries seem so very far. Time is distorting, ebbing and flowing, just as the tides. Minutes? Hours? Perhaps even years. None of that matters anymore. You're safe. Blissful. Enveloped by the water as you sink even deeper. As you slowly fade away into the overwhelming blackness.

i will always appreciate Steve Roden's music above all others. in the center of my musical heart are seated people like Solange Knowles, Steve reich, Gavin Bryars, Philip Glass, all of which i resonate with their deep sensitivity to music and how it wrangles time. However one thing that discomforts me about all of those artist is their eagerness to shift and change the seating of the music. don't get me wrong, it isn't an objectively lacking aspect of their work; its the briskness of wanting to change that occasionally upsets me. Steve Roden on the other hand i deeply respect. His music regularly conjures images of coolio-nimbus clouds, icebergs, cargo ships, ocean currents; a perpetual feeling of heavy nowness, while still weighing that of the scent of a single grass root. It always comes with a feeling of hopelessness, only with all pity, tragedy, and sorrow removed. i often get a vivid image of myself being a sunken ship somewhere in the arctic circle, and watching icebergs drift overhead through earally clear water. greenland sharks appearing as bumble-bees when compared to the scale of time I pass through. a reoccurring dream i mysteriously only have when falling asleep to 'stars of ice' puts me, again, deep underwater making my way to the tungsten-light bulb-lit exit of a garganchuan submarine passing through arctic waters. i step out into the pitch black, otherwise silent waters; only filled with the deep, dark hum of the vessels engine; compelled by its own nature to run perpetually, to push through nothingness. not for the sake of a moral objective, not for its own benefit, not against its own will, merely by the fact that it exists to function in that way; simply by the fact that in that moment in time, the molecules that we recognise and categorize as an 'engine' are held together by its own chemical bonds, and that each gear and pump have momentum and trajectory that causes them to spin a propeller, which causes the whole unit to move forward. in that way i think that all people, all life for that matter, are like that submarine. we exist not because of some destiny, not because of some moral mission, not because of some punishment from a higher power, not because of a miraculous chain of coincidences. while all may be true in their own right, i feel that the eyes we see out of, the universe we observe, the emotions we feel about it, and the time that passed to have such a process take part; it all exists because gentile collisions of circumstance we stable enough for other happenings to accumulate on top. in short, it all exists because able to happen, and keep on happening. the choreographies of gravity and matter gave way to electrons, protons, neutrons, photos, who's own unique prefered positions gave way to the elements, who gave way to chemicals and molecules, who gave way to the human body and mind. each synapse developed from a distant animal's ability to function around other animals and scenery. i feel the very concept of 'meaning', 'happening', 'form that IS in some way', only exists as a mechanism of the organ, colloquially known as the brain, that evolved from eons of living. i think that it is every human and living things destiny to continue living until it isn't able to, weather that road be blocked by a landslide, tapered to a dear trail, or simply not maintained enough to be walkable. we will keep on experiencing, simply by the sheer fact that we are able to experience. Steve Roden, it is with these eyes, these ears, and my whole heart that I hope and pray you rest blissfully. you will be deeply missed.

Chère Françoise, je comprends votre remarque. Mais la musique est faite de sons, comme tous les "bruits". Il faut donc penser au sens large. Et puis je vais vous avouer que j'aime beaucoup l'auteur de ces musiques (steve roden) et que j'aime par ailleurs Monteverdi, Bach, Mozart, Schubert, Luciano Berio... Ne vous prenez pas pour une imbécile, ouvrez vos oreilles ! Amicalement
