Quantum Cellar — We've Got Plenty of Time

I've listened to my band's second record on the way to work and a lot of poignant details about its conception and inspirations jumped back right at me.

Compared to our first record, which was more of a mishmash of different styles we liked mixed with a try-hard attitude and obvious amateurism, the second record (an EP) is much more fleshed out and consistent. It's a post-rock meets prog-rock journey with a weird ambient dream or nightmare-like middle portion that firmly states that the whole thing is a concept album. It's also decently mixed, a crucial point the first album was lacking.

Conception-wise, I had the strongest hand in it. Not musically, but the soul of it, is pretty much 95% me in this case as I did the sampling on it, I had control over the themes. The whole middle portion was also from the get-go a musical recounting of a set of extremely vivid dreams I had. The EP's title is a sentence uttered to me by a character in one of those dreams.

It's been over 15 years yet the dream is still pretty vivid in me. I had sent an email to some friends about it but I've been unable to find it in my archives. I must've sent it from my professional email at the time, rookie mistake. I can still narrate the dream though, but maybe not in its finer details.

Though album's ambient middle section is inspired by different dreams, but only the last two tracks of that section are of real significance to me (tracks called "Escalation" and "We've Got Plenty Of Time") as these are inspired by a single dream which starts this way:

I'm finding myself at the bottom of a huge pyramid-like structure of gargantuan proportions (that makes it feel more like a kilometers-high sky-scrapper) with definite South-American aesthetics about it. At street level, I'm told by an eagle-headed man whom I know within the dream to be Lasse Hoile (Danish photographer and visual artist) to climb to find the answers to my questions. I start ascending until the ground disappears progressively under the clouds. A feeling of unease takes over me but I push on. The last part is climbed completely vertically. As I arrive on the top level, I find myself on an open terrace that blends Mayan feelings with Art Deco. There is a roof above me as I feel that the place is like a huge hall / temple made of huge stone pillars. A few hooded acolytes notice me as others are dragging a young girl who's screaming. The acolytes near to me seize me while the others throw the supplicating girl off a promontory. I'm dragged further down to another terrace where there are stone benches and on one of them sits the eagle-headed figure who I still know is Lasse Hoile. I'm made to sit on a bench opposite to him and the acolytes leave. Lasse's eagle eyes stare right through me as he utters : "Relax. It's only two PM. We've got plenty of time".

When I analyze this dream now, I come to the same conclusion as I did back then. This was a dream about time passing and my anxiety of becoming someone. Being successful. Being seen. As these were the "questions" I needed answer for in my dream and was following the eagle-headed character for in the street in the first place.

But if it was 2pm back in 2009, what the fuck is the time now?

I'm running out and nothing has changed.

At 5 o'clock before sunset.

In the morning I suck Hoile from Denmark and the God of Rock.
