Artist commentary:
Husr: (composer, booklet commentary)
As seconds pass into minutes and minutes into hours, the dreary tedium of amusing oneself can begin to wear one down. Attendre attempts to capture that boredom- inflicted deterioration.
Bin: (track artist, booklet commentary)
Husr gave me free rein over track art, more or less, which was probably a bad idea on his part, considering the end result. It's a bit of a loose interpretation of "waiting for time to pass," but I think it still embodies the central themes of frustration and tedium. Anyway, sprites look bad when you rotate them, so I put a radial blur over the whole thing so people would thing it was intentional. You tend to pick up on these kinds of tricks when you're a master artist like I am.
