Solar winds going against the Earth's magnetic field.

I get these in my voice mail often. It's Santa's phone dialing from inside his sack while he traverses through the Noth Pole, wondering where his eyefone 4S was last. I don't know why I'm on his speed dial tho?

these sounds are caused by the solar winds hitting magnetic field of the earth

If planet Earth were a pregnant female Troll, this would be the sound it would make!

Kangding Ray . Solens Arc
Release : January 2014 on raster-noton
www.raster-noton.net
www.kangdingray.com

A stone thrown, just to watch it fly. A projectile launched for the sole purpose of drawing a ballistic trajectory in the sky.
The Solens arc is what remains after the subtraction of the goal; a simple parabolic curve defined by gravity, impulse and starting angle. No target to hit, no catharsis to wait for, just the beauty of the flight.

The Arc as the purpose, in the form of four variations, constructed from disintegrated melodic textures and dismantled beats. Each sequences are assembled seamlessly into dense, evolving compositions, while keeping their autonomy, and their role in the global dramaturgy.

Pointillist serial loops morph into abrasive rave anthems, broken club rhythms are refitted into uneven patterns, like deconstructivist sound architectures. Industrial techno stompers dissolve into granular sound waves and filtered space pads, before being overtaken by cinematic drums and rising arpeggios.

Solens Arc is Kangding Ray’s fourth Album for raster-noton.

Despite being essential to life on Earth, the magnetic field isn’t something we can actually see in itself, or ever hear. But, remarkably, scientists at the Technical University of Denmark have taken magnetic signals measured by ESA’s Swarm satellite mission and converted them into sound – and for something that protects us, the result is pretty scary.

In Emotive Intelligence, Imo Kashi blends tight breakbeat percussion with a nostalgic piano to craft a soundscape that speaks directly to our emotional intelligence. This ambient electronic track takes the listener on a deep journey into the subconscious, where rhythm and introspection merge to explore the most intimate shades of the human experience.

Petit mix ou je reparcours une dernière fois la sélecta que j'avais faite pour cet incroyable pot de départ d'Edgar !!

Merci pour tout, Edgar

à l'écoute du bruissement imaginaire de l'infiniment petit à l'intérieur de nous, une divagation poétique et onirique.

The tale of the mythic pentaki mountain has been engraved on a two-sided circular piece of wax.

the north face of the peak is steep, abrasive, and has been the subject of many legends in the region. it is said that whoever would manage to climb it would find a plateau, leading to a place called “the single source of truth”.

considered as the ultimate goal by both psychedelic gurus and database o
ptimization corporations, and as an ideal retirement destination for a couple of lost souls in search for coherence and objectivity, the source diffuses endless loops of haunted voices, apparently sampled from a discarded call center, running low on power, encouraging listeners to shorten cycles, deliver requests and improve user experience.

it is also said that anyone climbing from the south side would never reach the summit or find his way to the plateau, and would always end up on a lower altitude than where he started.

this topographical anomaly is probably the reason why the south face of the pentaki has always been favorited by locals, with its sunny weather and its luxurious vegetation flourishing along the soft downward slope, leading to a slow and peaceful end.
