Apollo 11: That's One Small Step for (a) Man

UPDATE (20 Aug 2015): What made the comet sing? Scientists working on Rosetta's RPC instrument have found out why 67P/C-G was singing. Via http://wp.me/p46DHN-1nN

ORIGINAL Citation (Oct 2014): Rosetta’s Plasma Consortium (RPC) has uncovered a mysterious ‘song’ that Comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko is singing into space. The comet seems to be emitting a ‘song’ in the form of oscillations in the magnetic field in the comet’s environment. It is being sung at 40-50 millihertz, far below human hearing, which typically picks up sound between 20 Hz and 20 kHz. To make the music audible to the human ear, the frequencies have been increased in this recording. This sonification of the RPC-Mag data was compiled by German composer Manuel Senfft (www.tagirijus.de).  Read full details in ESA's Rosetta blog: http://wp.me/p46DHN-Li

A Singing Comet

iTunes - http://smarturl.it/MCKindred
A few years ago I did a remix of a track by Dominik Eulberg called Sansula, which featured an instrument of the same name. After the release a builder of sansula instruments in the Netherlands was kind enough to give me one as a present in case I wanted to use one again in a live recording, which I have finally got around to doing now with this track!

My process consisted of me sitting in my studio (badly) playing the thumb plucked sansula for quite a while, so that I could go back to the recording and pull out some useable loops as a starting point. I wanted a nice warm analogue chord progression to complement, but more in the high bass and low mids than my usual chord progression that's down really low, to fill the mix with the warmth as much as possible.

The track still needed something though, so I turned to some spare recordings of my favourite vocalist - Kathrin deBoer, from some of our previous recording sessions. I didn't want to go for the usual full lyrical approach of a vocal collab track, I just wanted to add some small snippets of human feeling to round off the track properly.

The release is coming out on Fields on the 1st of December along with an intense synth experiment with a Prophet 08, and beautiful remixes from David August and Throwing Snow.

Origins

We discovered @aten-rays through our dude @itsvestige after he sent us his breakthrough track "Come With Me" 

Right off the bat we could tell he was heading in a unique direction with productions shrouded in mystery. His unique mix of 808s combined with his own palette of african, middle eastern & tribal percussion was enough for us to invite him aboard.

Ambient noise of the International Space Station

The sound of starting up the toilet on the space station. Not exactly conducive to reading.

Toilet Starting on Station

Here is the volume of the ambient noise of the station when closed into my sound dampened sleep station.

After a little while it becomes somewhat soothing. Combine that with the relaxation of weightlessness and you've got a pretty nice sleep.

Stowing Experiment Bottles

This is the sound the space toilet is making when not in operation. It is a similar steady hum to that of the rest of the station, surrounded by hardworking fans.

Soyuz Docking with Station

Space Station Caution tone – not as bad as Warning or Emergency tones, but still never good news.
