# 3: Jonathan Halper - Leaving My Old Life Behind / I Am A Hermit
Let's get soopaobscure. 'Puce Moment', a short film of 1949, just over 6 minutes. Psychedelic and yet somehow quite normal, display pictures that their subtle effect until a few hours later, when the everyday stresses stumble again by chance on the performance. The oddly-filled eyes of the only actress Yvonne Marquis, the color of violence so do not own idea of the year of publication will fit (but very well to the style of the director, Kenneth Anger) ... and of course the music. Stands out and do not hear more conspicuous on. Lo-fi as fuck would say the New German - but who sings because so airy and boiled the hell out of them? And that arose really 1949? No, of course not - has reworked the film Anger as 1966, he took two pieces of songwriter Jonathan Halper, closing off the entire soundtrack for the film. From Halper neither pictures, dates or other details are known, which makes the whole thing, of course, twice as interesting. The two songs that were fused into one piece are called "Leaving My Old Life Behind" and "I Am A Hermit "and they would be released on any album (the song still exists only as a direct Audiorip the movies), would be something to be" singing call influential songwriter Masterpiece "or similar quirky meaningless.
Halper with soul, the guitar played acts like his feelings to describe, nevertheless has to 
" as an experimental piece - backward running band, Jug solo or the abrupt collapse of "Leaving ..." and the spherical Introduction of "I Am A Hermit" speak absolutely for it. All this will be implemented in such a decision that you can also still amazing today. An obscure piece Fund, is not that interesting by the very obscurity, but by its quality.
Oh yes - an information about Halper there is still: he is said to have set itself shortly after the shooting in a monastery to rest.
Yes, I am a hermit - my mind is not the same
