I tried out various online tools to convert different field recordings into text and ended up using https://editor.flixier.com/transcribe/ - because it was the only one that worked on any of the recordings. I also tried audio > video > YouTube but YouTube failed to caption the videos.

I used an echoey recording of a recent visit to a cathedral which translated into nonsensical text (in German) but unfortunately no descriptions like [noise] or the like. I did not find a way to read a score or musical instruction into the text so I used text to speech - including the time stamps to translate the text back into audio. Because it is a rainy day, I turned this into a house track, sort of.

Both CNN and The Washington Post have been caught engaging in some pretty shady journalistic malpractice with their Israel reporting in recent days.

Hot Synths for Cold Cities: Solid Pleasure December 2023

Biden has turned out to be everything we were warned Trump would be: a genocidal monster fueling racist violence and crimes against humanity while imperiling the world with insanely reckless foreign policy decisions.

Biden Is Everything People Feared Trump Would Be

So the US and the UK just bombed the poorest country in the middle east for trying to stop a genocide. Not only that, they bombed the very same country in which they just spent years backing Saudi Arabia's genocidal atrocities which killed hundreds of thousands of people between 2015 and 2022 in an unsuccessful bid to stop the Houthis from taking power.

Western Empire Bombs Yemen To Protect Israel's Genocide Operations In Gaza

If you're among those who have only just begun paying attention to US foreign policy and western media bias in light of Israel's destruction of Gaza and Biden's act of war against Yemen, it's important to understand that none of the depravity you're seeing is new. The lies. The insane double standards. The murderousness. The western political/media class always does this.

Turns out "Israel has a right to defend itself" actually meant "Israel has a right to commit genocide, and no other countries have a right to stop it."
