The Pentas

Pentas are 5 gong-style round drum-things which are used to play simple melodies. Each one of those is one note in a scale called the Pentatonic scale. If you take the modern western scale with it's 7 notes (Do, Re, Mi, Fa, Sol, La, Si). The pentatonic scale is the best sounding 5 of those (Do, Re, Mi, Sol, La). The easiest way of achieving the pentatonic scale on a piano would be to play only the black keys. Also the pentatonic scale is quite popular with beginner guitarists. It's rather simple on a fret-board and gives a nice sounding solo when improvising. The Pentas - being my second album, was still recorded during my time learning the guitar. So I used a lot of the pentatotic scale in it. Thought quite frankly, knowing about the other two notes (Fa and Si) I added them quite often still.

It was recorded during 2016 ( roughly speaking ). The English is still bad. And the songs are trying way to hard to be artsy and provocative. I was trying to gain attention. But in the same time I was forming a sort of political opinion that I could not yet properly formalize. Which in the end grown into the themes of "I'm Not Even Human" and later "Moria's Race". Some songs are missing. This is what I could recover.

The last song "Child In Orgasm" almost had a music video made. But nobody was stupid enough to be my DP. So I released the animated storyboard instead.

It's so weird to be watching The Vast Of Night almost right after No One Will Save You. One movie has no dialogue, while the other is just dialogue. To be honest, it might seem very strange to make a film so dialogue heavy, if we didn't have people like Quentin Tarantino who shows time and time again that movies with a lot of dialogue can work fantastically.
