I made an album with my friend Angelo De Augustine called A Beginner’s Mind—a collection of folk songs loosely based on films. We started this project together in upstate New York (before the pandemic) and then finished it remotely during Covid. The first new 7-inch single (“Reach Out,” above) is partly inspired by Wim Wenders’ Wings of Desire, and the lyric video features our respective dogs. The B-side (“Olympus”) is based on Clash of the Titans (the 1981 version, which includes Ray Harryhausen’s final stop-animation work). You can pre-order here. We will be releasing two more 7-inch singles over the next few months. More music (and movies) to come. I hope you enjoy. Peace to you. XOXOXO
Thank you Kentaro Miura for bringing the world Berserk, a story filled with tragedy but that also teaches us hope and with characters that have a place in our hearts.
One of the most beautifully written mangas with the art and story alone. This is hard to realize that this tragedy happened, its just so shocking so sad...
I can’t believe it was kept in the wraps for 2 weeks… but I’m a bit flabbergasted and still processing that Kentaro Miura has passed away.
It’s pretty easy to understate how big his influence is in art. Without him, we wouldn’t get Dark Souls and Bloodborne, and the animators and artists of Castlevania explicitly said he was in an influence in their work.
Miura, in my opinion, had one of the greatest eyes for detail and some STRONG, STRONG, STRONG visual imagery almost untouched by… well a lot of people really.
He pushed the visual imagery of fantasy and horror in new and exciting ways, and it’s a test to his timeless writing that we’re still invested in Berserk for decades.
RIP Mr. Miura.
