Peter Pan and Wendy

Peter Pan and Wendy is a 2023 American fantasy adventure film directed by David Lowery from a screenplay he co-wrote with Toby Halbrooks. Jim Whittaker served as a producer on Walt Disney Pictures' production of Walt Disney's live-action remake of the 1953 animated feature film Peter Pan, based on the 1904 play Peter Pan; Or, J.M. The Boy Who Didn't Grow Up (also known as Peter and Wendy) by Barry. The film stars Alexander Moloney (his film debut) and Ever Anderson in the title roles. Jude Law, Yara Shahidi, Alyssa Wapanatahak, Joshua Pickering, Jacoby Juppe, and Jim Gaffigan also appear in supporting roles. The story follows Peter Pan and Wendy, who travel to the magical world of Neverland with Wendy's brother and Peter's best friend, Tinker Bell. Along the way, Wendy embarks on adventures that will change her life and encounters Peter's nemesis, Captain Hook.

JOHN FOXX & THE BELBURY CIRCLE - “SUIT”

Ever since leaving Ultravox to pursue weirder and wilder things, John Foxx has been something of a serial collaborator, constantly teaming up with sundry other artists. I could list them all out, here, but I would quickly run out of space on this post, and spoil all of my ideas for other things I want to write about on my blog. Suffice it to say that I think it’s very valuable for creative people to collaborate, and that it forces us to rethink things and come to insightful new conclusions. The major threads of his style have remained very consistent, but each new partnership he forges seems to bring a bit of new light to his work in a way that’s satisfying to the devoted fan while still being interesting and breaking some new ground.

I especially admire Foxx’s ability to indulge in what we might consider “trendy” movements in electronic music. One of my other hobbies besides music is fashion, and I see discourse about trends and their significance there all the time. The common-sense consensus always seems to be that one should feel free to reject trends entirely, while also feeling free to indulge in items that are trendy and have fun with them, as long as one is true to their own style and wearing what one genuinely enjoys. I think a lot of music critics are guilty of rejecting trendy movements out of hand, or at least believing that a trend is only valuable if it manages to stick around and turn into a more permanent fixture. You likely won’t be surprised that I see it more like leopard mini-skirts. Over the years, John Foxx has dabbled in everything from “electroclash” in the Aughts to “vapourwave” more recently, and earlier this past decade he went a little “hauntology.”

Chiefly associated with the independent record label Ghost Box Records, the brainchild of one Jim Jupp, the hauntology aesthetic is sort of like vapourwave for an earlier generation. They’re both heavily anchored in nostalgia and warped, incomplete remembrance of the cultural landmarks of the past, and portray that with indistinct or ambiguous artistic elements. They’re a little creepy and unnerving at times, distorting the familiar, and gaslighting one’s own memories of childhood innocence. But where vapourwave channels the bubblegum excitement of Neopets, hit clips, and the SEGA Dreamcast, hauntology is more interested in things like Mid-Century public broadcasting, old science fiction, and tales of the Fortean or occult. (“The Belbury Circle” are simply the “house band” of Jupp and associates of his record label.)

Anyway, “Suit” is one of my favourite things to come from this collaboration. The styles of Foxx and Jupp mesh together incredibly well, and it feels like a very organic progression for Foxx, who’s been wistfully musing about mercurial, laconic Englishmen in grey suits drifting through desolate groves for some forty years anyhow. Whatever you want to call it, it’s the perfect thing to put on to soothe you, while cozying up indoors, or perhaps on a train, in some chilly fall or winter weather. Hot tea optional, but preferred.

(via Belbury Poly, Jim Jupp and Ghost Box Records – The Haunted Generation)

Darkness falls fast in the woods. Unhampered by street lighting, car headlights and the pale hubbub of everyday urban life, twilight descends with the bare minimum of warning, and many a late woodland walk – begun in the syrupy sunlight of evening – has unexpectedly ended amid the sinister crackle of night-time.

In this inky blindness, the imagination moves faster than the feet. Leaves hiss, bracken rustles and every minor twig snap becomes a gunshot. The resulting thoughts are inevitable. Am I alone here? Or is there someone – or something – hiding in the trees?

Such thoughts are evoked with sinister precision on The Gone Away, the new album from Ghost Box Records co-founder Jim Jupp, recording – as ever – in his guise as Belbury Poly. The album was inspired by traditional tales of fairy beings lurking in the British woodland: not the floaty elemental spirits of J.M. Barrie and co, but the malevolent goblins of medieval folklore....

Today I’m stepping back in time to add some of the albums I have bought since starting this project back in 2014. While I will continue to work through my album collection alphabetically, occasionally, once a month at least, I will post an album bought recently that I may have missed alphabetically. One such example is todays offering from hauntology experts Belbury Poly.

📽 The Legend of Tarzan (2016)

Just sayin, Tarzan is hot! I watched this movie when it first came out, but I didn’t remember as much of it as I thought I did. One of my favorite parts is when Tarzan gets bitten during a fight and closes up the wound with ants. It’s gross, but it’s so cool! Besides being attractive, Alexander Skarsgård is great in this role; and Margot Robbie is awesome as Jane, too. And even though he’s the bad guy, I love Christoph Waltz in this! It’s really packed full of amazing performances and beautiful visuals. I could watch it again and again.

Sex/nudity: 3/10 (some jokes/implications, implied sex, male nudity but nothing below the belt is shown clearly)

Language: 2/10 (not horrible but there is some)

Violence: 5/10 (a lot of fighting between men and men and men and animals, death shown sometimes pretty brutally)

Overall rating: 9/10

Belbury Poly - Root and Branch - from the new album, The Gone Away (Ghost Box) (natch)

Inspired by far-fetched fairy folklore, The Gone Away is the new album by Belbury Poly, the recording name of Ghost Box Records co-founder Jim Jupp. Vintage electronics, music room instrumentation and polyrhythmic sequences conjure up folk-ish, kosmiche melodies.

Evocative and unsettlingly familiar, it sets a darker and more serene tone than the last full-length Poly album, New Ways Out. Belbury Poly’s sound palette is still in evidence however; mellow analogue synths, rustic pipes and rusty strings. Gone are the usual supporting session musicians, with Jupp performing all parts himself. The album came together slowly over the course of three years while Jupp collaborated on various side projects and was finally completed a few days before the global lockdown commenced.

FM bringt das neue Album Old Habits Die Hard im Mai

"Old Habits Die Hard" ist das vierzehnte Studioalbum der legendären britischen AOR-Rockband FM. Das Album wird von Frontiers Records am Freitag, den 3. Mai 2024 veröffentlicht. Sieh Dir unten das offizielle Video zur ersten Single "Out of the Blue" an. Steve Overland, Sänger, Gitarrist und Gründungsmitglied der Band, sagt zum 40-jährigen Jubiläum (1984 - 2024): "Das neue Album umfasst die besten melodischen Elemente der 40-jährigen Karriere der Band. Wir haben uns genau angeschaut, was die beliebtesten FM-Alben großartig gemacht hat und versucht, uns darauf zu konzentrieren", sagt Steve über das neue Album "Old Habits Die Hard". FM sind bei vielen für ihre großen Refrains, die Twin-Lead-Gitarren und Steve Overlands intimen, aber dennoch kraftvollen Gesang und den klaren Gitarrensound bekannt. Nach dem "Thirteen"-Album von 2022 wurde "Old Habits Die Hard" durch die Krebsdiagnose von Keyboarder Jem Davis etwas verzögert (glücklicherweise wurde bei ihm inzwischen Entwarnung gegeben) und dann durch den plötzlichen Tod von FMs Gründungsgitarrist Chris Overland (Steves Bruder), der die Band hart traf. "Der Tod von Chris kam aus heiterem Himmel und war niederschmetternd", sagt Steve. Zu allem Überfluss verstarb der Gitarrist Bernie Marsden, ein enger Freund der Band und langjähriger Mitarbeiter von Jim Kirkpatrick, nur zwei Tage nach Chris". Die Tragödien, die die Band während des Aufnahmeprozesses plagten, bestärkten FMs Entschlossenheit und den Wunsch, das beste Album zu machen, das sie für ihre 40 Jahre im Geschäft machen konnten. Das neue Album ist auch eine passende Hommage an Chris Overland. In den letzten 12 Monaten, während ihrer ausgedehnten Tourneen, produzierten FM das Album selbst und nahmen den Großteil davon in ihren eigenen Aufnahmestudios Dale View und Electric Pepperland auf. Das Eröffnungsstück und die erste Single "Out of The Blue" ist ein Song, der von Keyboarder Jem Davis stammt. Jem sagt: "Die Band liebt die Musik von Toto und Foreigner, und so habe ich versucht, diese Einflüsse in einen Track zu packen. Als Steve dazukam und anfing zu singen, wusste ich, dass wir etwas Besonderem auf der Spur waren". "Out of the Blue' ist ein Song, der bei den FM-Fans der alten Schule gut ankommen wird", sagt Steve. "Bis jetzt war die Reaktion auf den Song erstaunlich". Das Album geht weiter mit dem Rocker "Don't Need Another Heartache", einer AC/DC meets Foreigner Hymne mit einem mitreißenden Refrain. Dieser Song wird wahrscheinlich im Live-Set für die 40-Jahre-Jubiläumstour enthalten sein, da er einer unserer Favoriten vom Album ist", erklärt Schlagzeuger und FM-Gründungsmitglied Pete Jupp. "Whatever It Takes" und "No Easy Way Out" sind typische FM-Melodien, die auch nahtlos auf eines der früheren klassischen Alben der Band passen könnten. Bassist und Gründungsmitglied Merv Goldsworthy erklärt: "No Easy Way Out' hat den großen typischen FM-Refrain. Es ist ein gewaltiger Hook. Das ist genau das, wofür wir bekannt geworden sind. Es ist einer meiner Favoriten auf dem Album". Die härtere Seite des Albums wird durch "Lost", "Another Day in My World" und "Leap of Faith" repräsentiert. Diese Songs sind zwar etwas härter, haben aber dennoch die eingängigen, melodischen Refrains, für die FM bekannt sind. "Cut Me Loose", "California" und "Blue Sky Mind" sind poppigere, gefühlvollere Stücke. "Blue Sky Mind" wurde wiederum von Keyboarder Jem Davis konzipiert, der den Song ursprünglich über seine Erfahrungen mit seiner Krebsdiagnose schrieb. "Dieser Song war wirklich eine Therapie für mich. Es war wichtig, dass ich es in der Musik verarbeitet habe", sagt Jem. "Black Water" ist ein grüblerischer, bluesiger Track, der immer weiter wächst. "Das ist ein echtes Lieblingsstück von mir", sagt FM-Gitarrist Jim Kirkpatrick. "Ich hörte Brian May das Gitarrensolo spielen, also holte ich meine Brian May Signature-Gitarre heraus und versuchte, ihn bestmöglich zu imitieren. Hoffentlich habe ich es annähernd geschafft". Vorbestellen kann man das Album hier bei CeDe.ch Tracklist: 1. Out of the Blue (4.21) 2. Don’t Need Another Heartache (4.35) 3. No Easy Way Out (3.54) 4. Lost (5.20) 5. Whatever It Takes (4.37) 6. Black Water (4.52) 7. Cut Me Loose (4.34) 8. Leap of Faith (4.05) 9. California (5.17) 10. Another Day in My World (4.14) 11. Blue Sky Mind (5.06) Production Credits: • Old Habits Die Hard • Produced by FM • Mixed by Jeff Knowler • Mastered by Jim Griffiths at Principal Audio • Photography by Paul Stuart Hollingsworth • Recorded at West3 Productions, Tremelo, Electric Pepperland, Morsecode Studios, JK Studios • All songs written by – Overland / Goldsworthy / Jupp/Davis / Kirkpatrick Track by Track: Out of the Blue - "Ich habe diesen Song auf Lanzarote geschrieben", sagt Jem Davis, Keyboarder von FM. "Er handelt von einem Mann, der in seiner eigenen kleinen Welt vollkommen glücklich ist, und plötzlich erklärt seine Partnerin, dass sie es nicht mehr ist und Schluss macht! Das kommt für ihn aus heiterem Himmel, aber er wird nicht kampflos aufgeben und sie verlieren". Don't Need Another Heartache - "Dies ist einer der bluesigeren Tracks auf dem Album, eine Art früher Foreigner/Bad Company Vibe", sagt Steve Overland. "Es geht um einen Kerl, der zu lange in einer schlechten Beziehung war, aber jetzt hat er endlich genug". No Easy Way Out - "Das war einer der ersten Songs, die für das Album geschrieben wurden", sagt Steve. "Er handelt von einem Mann, der vom Pech verfolgt wurde und weiß, dass es nicht einfach sein wird, aber er ist entschlossen, sich wieder aufzurappeln. Lost - Dies ist ein echter AOR-Groove-Rocker", sagt Steve. "Er handelt von jemandem, der alles hatte, es verloren hat und alles wieder haben will". Whatever It Takes - "Das ist wirklich die Ballade des Albums", sagt Steve. "Es ist ein Song über einen Typen, der ein Mädchen aus der Ferne anbetet, aber nicht die Worte hat, um es ihr zu sagen... eine bekannte Geschichte". Black Water - "Der Arbeitstitel lautete ursprünglich Havanna", sagt Jem. "Es ging um einen Menschen aus dem tiefen Süden der USA. Egal, wie weit er reiste, die starke Anziehungskraft seiner Heimat zog ihn immer wieder zurück". Cut Me Loose - "Dieser Song handelt von einer Beziehung, die verblasst ist", meint Steve. "Es ist an der Zeit, weiterzuziehen, aber wie schwer kann das sein, wenn man schon lange zusammen ist..."... Leap of Faith - "Dieses Stück ist das Gegenteil von 'Cut Me Loose'", erklärt Steve. "Es ist ein großartiges Riff, um den Track zu eröffnen. Die Geschichte erzählt, wie man den Funken verlieren kann, wenn beide es wollen, und wie man ihn zurückgewinnen kann, wenn beide es wollen. California - Musikalisch war ich auf der Suche nach einem Indiscreet-Vibe der alten Schule im Stil von 'Other Side of Midnight' oder 'American Girls'", sagt Merv. "Als Kind habe ich immer die Beverly Hillbillies und 77 Sunset Strip gesehen. Es schien alles so anders zu sein als dort, wo ich aufgewachsen bin, im Norden Englands. Sonne, Strand, Surfen, tolles Wetter und natürlich all die großen Filmstudios. Ich war mir nicht einmal sicher, ob das alles echt war oder nur ein Traum". Another Day in My World - "Das ist die Geschichte eines Mannes, der immer unbemerkt geblieben ist und sein Leben im Schatten verbracht hat", erklärt Steve. "Plötzlich will er das ändern und sich im Leben einen Namen machen. Blue Sky Mind - "Keiner weiß, wie er auf die Diagnose Krebs reagieren wird", sagt Jem. "Als ich im Januar 2023 die Diagnose erhielt, habe ich festgestellt, dass meine Art, damit umzugehen, darin bestand, einfach positiv zu bleiben. Da kann man nichts machen. Im September habe ich Entwarnung bekommen. Es geht darum, positiv zu bleiben und das Negative hinter sich zu lassen. Ich mag es, dass dies der letzte Track ist. Es ist eine positive Botschaft an alle, die mit Krebs zu tun haben"!

Overwhelming & Brutal

Overwhelming (verb)

Have a strong emotional effect on

Overcome with emotion

Affected by something very strongly

Synonym to: strike, move, affect

Brutal (adjective)

Unpleasant or harsh

Direct without any attempt to disguise unpleasantness

Synonym but not limited to: violent, savage, direct

Brutal & Overwhelming

A combination of both words have a negative-leaning connotation. The experience of course, is subjective to each audience. People who loves seeing horror or action film might find these emotion exhilarating while people who hates loud noises and jump-scare might hate the emotion and feel scared. Study by Lynch and Martins (2015) shows that low empathisers have more tendency to enjoy violent and gore media and vice versa.

Horror enthusiast seeks sensation from suspense and resolve. Suspense for example, is when a character is in threat of a masked killer and resolve is when the killer is finally caught or killed in retaliation. We often feel a sense of euphoria and relieve when a threat is resolved and such logic happens behind a horror enthusiast’s mind.

Zuckerman’s model of sensation-seeking mentions four related but different factors that includes:

thrill and adventure seeking

experience seeking

disinhibition

boredom susceptibility.

Zuckerman M. (1988). Sensation seeking and behavior disorders. Arch. Gen. Psychiatry 45, 502–503.

Here are the examples of 11 artworks that feels brutal or overwhelming or both:

Requiem for A Dream

(viewer discretion is advised)

youtube

Requiem for a Dream (2000) is a film depicting addicts who are connected to each other. This movie often uses parallel cuts to indicate things are happening at the same time. The use of meditative music over heart-wrenching scenes creates a haunting effect. The editing choice in the final scenes successfully created tension and the continuously looping parallel shots of the characters proves to be overwhelming.

Before Your Eyes

youtube

Before Your Eyes tells a story of a boy who died very young due to an illness. This game utilises motion sensors and the game progresses every time the player blinks. Each scene is crafted with great details making the players holding their blink to elongate the scene. The first person perspective makes the audience sits in the young boy's place watching life flashing before their eyes. This game is overwhelmingly beautiful and heart-wrenching in its aspect to cherish whatever amount time we have left on earth.

Devotion

youtube

In Devotion (2019), the user plays as a father solving clues and puzzles as to what happens in his life. This game criticises the influence of cults in Taiwan. It also heavily criticises overbearing parents and the stigma of mental illness in Asia.

The use of red colour during revelation and flashback scenes and the silent jumpscare during most of the gameplays is very effective to keep the players anxious. This technique also does not over expose the players resulting in a more unpredictable jumpscares. Besides it’s graphic imagery and colour scheme, this game is brutal due to its harsh and raw depictions of cults and superstitions that affects vulnerable families in Taiwan.

Everywhere At The End of Time

youtube

This album created by The Caretaker depicts the mind of a patient with alzheimer. The 6 hour long piece involves a continuously degrading set of music. Each stage shows a deteriorated version of it’s previous stage. The album ends at static noises and ultimately long silence.

What makes this album eerie, overwhelming and brutal is the idea behind it. Exposing the audience to what dementia sounds like forces them to emphatise with the memories. The duration of the album also emphasises the slow and painful degeneration and by stage 5 the sudden void creates a horrible overwhelmingly somber aura knowing the memories are forever gone.

Ouroborindra (album)

youtube

Ouroborindra (2005) was produced by Jim Jupp under the pseudonym “Eric Zann”. Jupp stated this album was inspired by H.P. Lovecraft. Similar to Lovecraft, this album has a haunting and hair-raising aesthetic. A minute listening session gives the audience a taste of Lovecraftian cosmic horror.

The static noise and continuously evolving sounds creates an overwhelming eeriness while not being painful to hear. Some parts are accompanied by pianos giving the listener’s ear some time to rest. This arrangement choice proves to be excellent as it creates a pleasant bridge and outro.

Brutalist Architecture

At a glance, this architecture looks boring and unappealing. What makes a brutalist characteristic is the blocky and chunky design.

Some argue that brutalism is an egalitarian movement, this movement strays away from white painted walls with decorated windows typical of the time. At the time, the geometric and blocky design was considered modern. This evidence appears in futuristic movies and in spy/war movies symbolising rebellion, modernism, and revolution.

Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy (2011)

Black Mirror (2011)

Shoujo Tsubaki (Camellia Girl)

(viewer discretion is advised)

youtube

Shoujo Tsubaki (1992) is a film adapted from the comic of the same title. The uncensored animation completed with voice acting added many layers of disturbance and the feeling of dread. Many people found this film very upsetting resulting to banning in several countries.

This artwork is one of the greater known titles within the ero-guro (short for erotic-grotesque) genre. The Ero-guro genre symbolises resistance and rebellion during world war 1. Some also enjoy it as escapism and sexual liberation. This film is brutal due to its depiction of grooming, abuse, and nonsensical grotesque scenes.

Sistine Chapel Church

The wall and ceiling of the Sistine Chapel were painted by Michelangelo (1508-1512). It is not surprising that this work took an incredibly arduous time that Michelangelo dreads working on it. The details and paint stand the test of time and the colossus artwork will make every visitor gasps in awe. Each painting has incredible details and the colours are carefully coordinated. It only takes a single glance to feel overwhelmed by the presence of this artwork.

Japan Sinks

youtube

Japan Sinks is a Japanese animation series created by Masaaki Yuasa. The animation was an adaptation of a novel with the same title. Each depiction of death are raw and uncensored oftentimes includes close-ups. This series was a contribution to Paralympics 2020 and was set to release as a promotional campaign.

It doesn’t take the brightest bulb to notice the brutality of this series. The main characters experienced sudden deaths of their loved ones and the grief was left unprocessed until much late. Naturally, this end of the world scenario includes a multitude of body counts. Many great characters did not survive and their final scenes include close-ups and slow motion of their remnants making their sudden demise even more brutal, leaving a gaping hole in the viewer’s heart.

Judith Slaying Holofernes (Artemisia Gentileschi version)

The painting showed an “uncensored” gory scene of Judith beheading her abuser helped by another woman. It is said that Gentileschi was inspired by her master, Caravaggio. Caravaggio’s version had a different composition and the painting shows Holofernes holding his blood, resembling strings.

Judith beheading Holofernes (Caravaggio)

Unlike her master, Gentileschi did not hold back nor consider making the painting palatable for the viewer. The more brutal interpretation made the intention behind the painting even clearer. It is one of the strongest depiction of complex independent women and a strong message of feminism in baroque era.

Notre Dame Basilica (Montreal)

youtube

This gothic style cathedral is located in Quebec City, Montreal. The three-story-tall hall symbolises the church’s power and the huge size of a cathedral has been known to give psychological effects to the devoters. The blue colours represent the sky and heaven, the red colours complemented by gold accents gives a royalty and majestic look. The pillars will reverberate the sound of organs creating an effect of “heavenly sounds”, many believers are attracted to this sound resulting in higher attendance. The design of the cathedral makes the attendees feel small and overwhelmed as if the church attendees are “meeting” God.

Final short reflection:

Each of the artworks above shows a great amount of research and thoughts poured into the small details. They each have their own unique approach creating unique and impactful results.
