Slope by Janky Chandelier
In a moment of solitude. 1130 meters above sea level. Keep going. One foot in front of the other.
Slope. "The mountain" she repeats. Each section mirroring the relentless climb. Steady, hypnotic, but never the same. Peaks dissolve into fog and time feels suspended. ‘The Mountain’ draws you into a minimalist landscape, where each rise is met by a pulse. A reminder to keep going.
“Mountains should be climbed with as little effort as possible and without desire. The reality of your own nature should determine the speed. If you become restless, speed up. If you become winded, slow down. You climb the mountain in an equilibrium between restlessness and exhaustion. Then, when you’re no longer thinking ahead, each footstep isn’t just a means to an end but a unique event in itself. This leaf has jagged edges. This rock looks loose. From this place the snow is less visible, even though closer. These are things you should notice anyway. To live only for some future goal is shallow. It’s the sides of the mountain which sustain life, not the top. Here’s where things grow." - Robert M. Pirsig
Twisted blend of techno, dub, and experimental.
Janky - a bit fuct up, borderline decrepit.
Chandelier - held up high, lit.
