    If you don't want to die without other humans around you then zoom out far enough and chronologically speaking we're all dying at pretty much the same time, and spatially all in the same place. Another way of looking at it is you're a representative of existence and you'll be surrounded by things that exist till you go, so you won't be alone in that sense. I'm not sure words help but I wish you the best in overcoming that fear (if that's what you want).

    This piece makes me feel blissful, reflective and also very desperate. I don’t all my friends and family to die but it’s inevitable. Life is beautiful but I’m not used to it...

    I first listened to this and 'discovered' William Basinski this summer. i have just come back to it and immediately I am in that summer moment when I first heard it. It sounds like all the good and poignant emotions that I have had in my life (I'm 62)Wonderful

    i have tried to think of words that describe
    William Basinski's music
    and yet no words of mine could
    even come close to how amazingly wonderful
    his music is.
    it is breath taking and the exact definition of beauty

    @synthfreek That is ONLY for The Disintegration Loops. All his other works are simply manipulated loops from old recordings. But what he does with them is magic, El Camino Real especially. It is probably the single most listened to CD (I own two copies) in my collection and I have thousands of them. This song plays throughout the night, EVERY night accompanying me into sleep and greeting me in the morning. I can never get tired of it.

      Is that some kind of pun at the end there? You obviously have Stars of the Lid and Their Refinement of the Decline then?

    Curious enough: there is a painter named Zdzislaw Beksinski which sounds so much like Basinski. Explore Beksinski work while listening to this song by Basinski. The fitting is perfect.

    • @nighttime9539
      @nighttime9539 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I think this is how I came across this record. I was watching a painting compilation accompanied by El Camino Real. And the artist was probably Beksinski but I'm not sure. The channel was called Distant Mirrors.

    I listen to this song daily to go to sleep (and keep it on repeat through the night) and have been doing so since it's release. This is Basinski's masterpiece if you ask me. Indescribably transcendent, dreamy and billowy...

    I had a trip to California this summer. And I dont know if this name has any significance to the city in California. But listening to this song, and watching a Californian sunset was one of the greatest ways to experience this song.
    But as far as masterpiece, I would have to go for DLP 5, just because of its disintegration aspect of loosing a millisecond every repeat of the loop til the end of the song.. Actually, scratch that... All of his works are masterpieces!

  • @borowczyk76
    @borowczyk76 15 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Yes thx... I'm familiar with that work as well, in fact it's the first Basinski tune I heard when it came out. Been a fan ever since. Melancholia was my favorite piece until El Camino Real came out.

    To those who posts these vidoes on TH-cam, make sure you select the right pictures(s) for the song, as visuels can help creating the "look" and visuel sounding "style" of the songs, thats how much it can get/be manipulated whith ...
