RELEASE DATE
10/30/2020
2019 release. Dedicated to the life and work of
Robert Lax
(1915-2000), the American poet who lived on Patmos, Greece, as a self-exiled hermit since the '60s.
Jack Kerouac
called Lax "
one of the great original voices of our times, a Pilgrim in search of beautiful innocence
."
The Chi Factory
would like to give special thanks to his good Patmian friends
Ulf Knaus
and
Nikos Eliou
, who showed them his house on Patmos (everything is still the same since he left) and also his favorite old wooden door (see leaflet). His great minimalistic poetry became a source of inspiration for
The Mantra Recordings
. His life on Patmos was far away from public attention -- quiet and always surrounded by the skies, seas, cats and birds. Lax was a real dreamcatcher.
The Chi Factory
is the next step of
CHI
, formed by
Hanyo van Oosterom
and
Jacobus Derwort
.
