ein teppich aus öl und staub überzieht die hallenböden und bauten mit einer dumpfen, braun-grauen färbung und das matte licht, das durch die blinden dachfenster fällt, wird von der undefinierbaren oberfläche aufgesaugt. nur dort, wo lichtstrahlen durch zerbrochene fenster oder durchbrüche in den wänden dringen, schimmern die staubflocken wie schimmelblüten auf einer unbekannten substanz. die ära des staubes - fußspuren hinterlassen silberne, scharf konturierte reliefs, wie die fußabdrücke auf dem mond. die geräusche der schritte werden gedämpft, schall und licht absorbiert in den ablagerungen der zeit. das gelände scheint nicht zu reagieren auf eindringlinge; gleichgültig gegen ereignisse, seit es verlassen wurde, reflektiert es nicht einmal das licht oder den schall.

the flower of byzantine culture was a hybrid, enriched with leaves of gold. the 5th century invasion of the western roman empire by the goths had plunged western europe into the dark ages. byzantium became the centre of civilisation and it now laid the foundation for the music of christendom through a fusion of elements, religious and secular, eastern and western. the blend off hellenistic (greek) with semitic (jewish) and arabic (persian) conceptions transmitted its influence into russia via bulgaria and later into western europe. it can be said that not a single musical instrument of mediaeval europe was native but that they were all imported from asia. the migration took place over several centuries and by various routes, of which the most important passed through byzantium and north africa. the much vaunted renaissance in italy was less a re-discovery of classical greek and roman concepts than an embracing of the enduring cultural legacy of the byzantine christian sects. the music and art of western europe blossomed once more upon the opening of the gates to the orient. wellesz, byzantine music and hymnography

...time's landscape. the gradual unfolding of terrain. the sound of rainbows burning. wisps like little kayaks, trailing origins in their wake. the innert flowing. fluid arcs over frozen water. patterns etched into distance. thought's light traces. have our lives lost the component that compelled our ancestors to travel?

time had no meaning. it was gone. the dust of it lay at my feet, disturbed now and again by strange winds that eddied around the ancient rocks i stood upon. the sky, if one could call it that, threw fitful spasms of light and dark. the fires of the borderlands. RELEASE ENTERTAINMENT RE6978-2 RAPOON

'sbas yul' (or be yul) are the 'secret lands', the 'hidden', the 'promised lands' in the tradition of the countries of tibetan (böd) civilization and the ancient cultures of the ri gyal, literally the 'victorious mountains' - skt. himalaya. 'sbas yul' is an invitation to travel in these lands with their pagan rituals, dionysiac dances and seasonal orgies. the name sbas yul conjures up the fascinating nature of these hidden lands where one would like to take refuge from the madness ravaging the world.
the title 'ghazels' (also 'ghazal' or 'ghzali') refers to 'beautiful girls' ('Beauties') as well as lyrical poems, love poems or love chants and comes from the great persian lyrical poet shemseddin hafiz who described his 'ghazels' in such way: 'at the hour of parting, by going away far from you, my eyes came empty of light by dint of weeping.'

every one of us has within us a dark shadow child. the child who was sure that these were not their parents. the child who fired wasps out of guns at photographs of naked bodies. the child who was rejected by their mother, their father, the angry shadow, the web of the black widow. from this place of rage we try to murder all parents, all family, to purge the betrayal. this story is for these children, the abandoned, the hurt, the abused, the raped, the scared, the ecstatic...
