These are largely sound effects for use in setting.
Please listen with eyes closed. 

GhostMachine - Uses several layers of children's voices altered in pitch and speed to give a sensation of a artificial intelligence calling out from some electronic transmitter. The drone that is intended to be electronic backing, that is made up of largely a paper shredder stretched, and pitched down.

Tape Breakdown - Sourced from an opera singer in the subways of NYC there is a background noise of people chattering, which I used to give some atmosphere of a 1940's asylum. The singing is looped to insist on a certain senses of deepening madness. The reel clicking is a sped up stove ignition spark. The breakdown happens slowly over the course of the audio as the reel loses momentum, and the singers tempo also shifts. This was largely influence by the video game Bioshock.

DemonsTrap -  This is meant to be played through headphones as the listener is suppose to feel trapped by some entity trying to either get in or get out of them. The banging runs on both left and right channels at different points to add a sense of claustrophobia, and is a modified motor ignition. The bickering distant voices are put through re verbs and delays, in order to make the words they speak suggestive rather than direct.

Out of this world - This is largely inspired by the sound effects of the original Star Trek series, and other science fiction of the day. The main transporter sound is a very slow motorcycle rev with it's lower frequencies pulled out to remove the rumble, and pitched up. The other noises are a toilet flush finishing on loop with down pitching, and some filtering.
