Larks' Wings in Absinthe (In Praise of the King)

from The Larks and the Framer by Eidon

/

about

This is a piece inspired and dedicated to Robert Fripp and the "New Language" he devised in 1971, when he started working towards what would become his "Larks' Tongues In Aspic". Often considered a sublime guitarist, to me Mr. Fripp is also one of my greatest influences, together with Frank Zappa and Gentle Giant. Long live the Framer.

--

When the new idea comes
it often ties in with others, with old loves
Of sounds never forgotten, by now a part of you.

When the new idea comes
it is like a trickle, a stream, joining the great river,
river of which you yourself, you now understand, are a part.

When the new idea comes
fever grips you, unstoppable voice, overpowering and overshadowing
All of what just before we sought.

When the new idea comes
you finally understand that those questions, those thoughts,
had but one and only one answer.

"Eidon put ook uit mathrock, minimal music, jazz, etnische muziek... Hij zou perfect passen als support van Gogo Penguin, Battles of Dijf Sanders en kan op termijn misschien wel een plaats veroveren op zowel Rock Werchter als Gent Jazz of Couleur Café. Benieuwd hoe hij dit live brengt"
