But one thing should remain: „the thrill of it all“. „Late night stories“ offer more laisser faire than prime time in the evening. The long radio nights in earlier years were kind of „epic“, now another arc (of suspense) is required. Otherwise one of the four very long pieces of The Necks‘ „Travel“ would be played out in full, but now I’ll place a „passage“ of the Australians in the centre and build that hour around it. Some surely interesting new works will not appear because they don’t fit in terms of „narrative“, or whatever – and 55 minutes have their limitations. Or Marc Hollander’s new prank with Aksak Maboul, – a fantastic „singspiel“ about a surreal journey that demands complete attention despite its peculiar „earworms“ – a worthy continuation of the „Made To Measure“ series. Or the archival reissues centered around Jon Hassell’s 1990 album „City: Works of Fiction“. Think of the brilliant, at times heart wrenching „folk and beyond-spheres“ from Lankum. Some will open up the fields of „being on the road“, „in the wilderness“, „archaic“ and „exotic“. ![]() “There’s one song called “God Knows I Tried” which has a little gospel feel to it.How does such a „free-form“ radio show like „Klanghorizonte“ create its impacts? In the end it should be strangely coherent (with all its very different sources) – the „narration“, the „red threads“, the surprising „breaks“, and the sequence chosen tracks. I feel a connection as real with that as I’ve ever had with anybody on this earth.” That’s my primary relationship, really, is with something divine. ![]() Everything I do, I do it for somebody I’ve never met before, something in the great beyond. “I feel a strong relationship with God and I feel my ties are with him. All you really need is patience when you have persistence.” I would say, ‘I don’t know what’s going to happen.’ She’d say, ‘God didn’t save you from drowning just to beat you up on the shore. For me, the concept of religion transitioned into a really healthy idea of God–I don’t have the traditional views of a conservative Catholic, but my imagination was opened within the big blue-and-gold cathedral walls. “I loved the mysticism, the idea of something bigger, the idea of a divine plan. Agnes, and was the cantor of the church across the street. She attended a Catholic elementary school called St. I don’t have a traditional Catholic view of religion or God though – but I enjoy the feeling of being looked after in the spiritual sense.” I was very interesting and curious about the idea of a divine plan and that there was something bigger than us out there. Even when you put your question out there, you ask that invisible whoever “What do I do?” you sort of get answers you forget the problem all over again.” I think sometimes when you’re really faced with a huge life dilemma or problem and you’ve turned to every sort of thing for answers, sometimes the last resort is to pray and to put out a question to the universe in your mind. ![]() There’s a science to prayer, I would say. But it’s not until you do that that you realize there are answers out there to be found.” I’ve had to pray a lot because I’ve been in trouble a lot. I’ve been through so many different walks of life that I’ve needed to ask a lot of questions that no human power can answer. The faith that I’ve come to find is a science of my own through lots of trials and errors. “Like so many people, they always state the difference between faith and religion. Like a lot of other people, I think foundationally I was hymn inspired-musical hymns, not Him, Jesus. “And Jesus-I mean, being raised Catholic, it was just a way of life. “I guess I would say that the beautiful thing about feeling connected to something greater is that even at my lowest point I always have a feeling that I’m being taken care of. Yeah, I loved being around people who wondered why we were here.” There was just a lot of talk about going back to that basic question: Why do we exist? How did reality come to be? Why do we do what we do? And how not to become the butcher, the baker, the candlestickmaker, the guardians of the middle-class-that really interested me. “Well, I mixed it with my studies in theology, because it was the best school for the Jesuit faith and all of the Jesuits taught philosophy classes. I dunno about congregating once a week in a church and all that, but when I heard there is a divine power you can call on, I did.“ When things get bad enough, your only resort is to lie in bed and start praying. “My understanding of God has come from my own personal experiences… because I was in trouble so many times in New York that if you were me, you would believe in God too. ![]()
