He wanders among misty bogs turned surreal

"He wanders among misty bogs turned surreal, he talks to the wee folk of his own bad dreams, he files reports on introspected black visions with a kind of blarney eloquence. Like an actress cradling a doll for her stage baby, his language keens and croons about tales that are not quite there." Melvin Maddocks is talking about Samuel Beckett, a literary legend of the twentieth century. "It is neither night nor morning. A man must find himself without the support of groups, or labels, or slogans," writes R. D. Smith. And Beckett, by removing his characters from nearly all recognizable contexts, Smith continues, is "engaged in finding or saving" himself. Martin Esslin writes: "What is the essence of the experience of being? asks Beckett. And so he begins to strip away the inessentials. What is the meaning of the phrase 'I am myself'? he asks . . . and is then compelled to try to distinguish between the merely accidental characteristics that make up an individual and the essence of his self." A Time reviewer noted: "Some chronicle men on their way up; others tackle men on their way down. Samuel Beckett stalks after men on their way out."

Closer to the sound of it

Thanks for your patience. Next week.

Study of Gneiss Rock, Glenfinlas, 1853.

Helo semua, Kita akan menyiapkan beberapa surprise edan di album baru kita yang pasti membuat lo semua berkata "wow hebat" lalu boker di celana karena begitu kagum. Kita sudah tau dengan siapa kita akan merilis album ini. Tapi judul, kover, dll, masih belum dapat kita kabarin. Ada beberapa masukan yang bagus hasil kontes design kover kemarin, tapi kita masih menimbang2 yang mana yang paling asoy. Kita juga sedang mempersiapkan beberapa video art, dan langkah tur awal untuk album ini. Tunggu saja, dan jgn lupa untuk bersiap2 untuk album SC yang kedua.

Hi,

This is the official non-fiction fictional blog for the musical group known as SAJAMA CUT. Yes yes yes we realize we do have a dotcom, but this seems effective-er and efficient-er.

For the last 4/5 years we have been in preproduction. Everyday. We recorded 6 songs which should be released one day. Needles to say, we kept (are keeping) those songs hidden in the closet, solely for the fact that it did not feel "up to par."

Since February 09 we have been recording 8 songs we think are good to great. To describe it would be futile since it's better listening to it - and any other music - without any pre conceived notion. Than again, it would be fun.

The songs contain trumpets french horns etc. There are no guitars in some songs. It is very different from anything we have done: as TOJ was different from Apologia.

We are excited for you to hear it.

Thank you for all your messages, either through info@sajamacutband.com, facebook, twitter, cellphones, etc. They mean much.

This is a video of the recording session.
