Name: Recording of Hummingbird Feeding. by RichardDevine in Sound
Duration: 46 s
Description: Short recording of a recording of a humming bird feeding on my back porch. This clip was recorded with two DPA 4060 Lav microphones taped to the humming bird feeder. Recorded on to a Sound Devices 702 recorder at 24-bit 96khz.

outstanding up close perspective on a hummer, thanks for sharing

Are we allowed to download the recordings? I like to use it for a kids program on birding.

Many, many thanks for this recording!  Great for background while I complete my work-in-progress "El Colibrí Vuela/The Hummingbird Soars."

The sequence starts with a cable connection to the clock output from the Steady State Fate Ultra Random module. This clock output was sent to an intellijel hub mult. From here the clock was sent to first to a 4ms RCD/QCD, Delptronics Trigger Man, and to the MakeNoise Rene. First output gates from 4ms RCD 4 divide output to the trigger input on the Braids module top row, running in "WLIN" mode. The second multi-output was sent to a 4ms QCD output green channel 4, set at a division trigger time of 16. This would trigger single notes on the "Elements" module, that begins at 1:42. The playback mode is running in "Secret Easter Egg Mode" :-) The selected note sequence from the QCV output from Rene. The final output from Elements was sent to the Eventide "Pitch" pedal using the "Crystalizer" algorithm.

Clouds - was processing recorded chunks from the drum percussion, kick used from the top row "Peaks" 808 kick drum synthesis model. Then a snare was created from the "grey" noise output from the SSF Quantum rainbow running through the right side of Streams to make a snare drum, which was running in envelope mode with shape position to the left, short decay. Then a third voice uses the blue noise output from the SSF quantum rainbow for hi-hats. Amplitude triggered/controlled by a HexVCA. The drum sequence was programmed from the Delptronics Triggerman, using all 8 patterns stringed together running in pattern play mode but being CV controlled by the S&H # 1 output from the SSF Ultra Random. Output for all voices was grouped and multiplied into two separate mixers. First three channels of the Intellijel Mutamix, which was then sent to output channel B. From there the summed mix was sent into the "left" side input of Clouds. Then triggered in time with the sequence by an 8th division trigger from the 4ms RCD. The freeze input in Clouds was triggered in time 7th divisions from the 4ms RCD, so that the chunks would process and record then playback in spurts of timed randomness. The mode was set in the pitch-shifter/time stretcher configuration, where the grains were spliced so that created interesting granular pitching repeats and percussive glitch effects, as the rhythmic beats played through. Focused ranges were selected for the "Density/Pitchshifter" and "Timestetcher/Texture" controls. These were being controlled by the S&H #2 output from the SSF Ultra Random. The 1/volt pitch input was controlled by the toggle A/B output from the SSF ultra random. The clean drum outputs were also sent to channels 5, 6, and 7 on the Blue Lantern "Mix 'Em Up" module.

Streams left side processing from the MakeNoise Mysteron output, which was being triggered by the 5th division output, for the metallic ripple delay like sounds, with the mutation knob set to counter-clockwise, low bit mode.
The "Shelves" module was processing the acid-like filter parts that get un-muted at 12 seconds. The sound source running into "Shelves" was the "Braids" module bottom row, running in "CSAW" mode. CV controlled by the CV output from the MakeNoise Rene sent to another intellijel hub mult. From here each CV output was sent to the "Frequency" inputs pink, green, and white jacks on "Shelves". The "Tides" high tide output modulation the CV controlling the top frequency input on "Shelves" Each filter knob was set so the incoming "CSAW" input was being processed like a formant filter effect.

Smooth Sub OSC bassline coming from the MakeNoise STO. This was being CV controlled by an intellijel ￼µScale (B) output. Playing back 8 notes while being triggered from the 2nd division trigger on the 4ms RCD. Triangle wave output from an Intellijel Dixie (synced) to the sequence controlling the input (1V/Oct). Second STO at 55 seconds, alternating high note triggers from the 1 channel output from the 4ms QCD 6th division output. The second STO output was sent to a MakeNoise Optomix for short quick plucks.

Disektor - Spectral Morphism

Recording of the sounds from my recent echo-cardiogram, often referred to in the medical community as a cardiac ECHO or simply an ECHO, is a sonogram of the heart. These are actual sounds taken from my heart on Tuesday May 10th 2011. The recording was taken straight from the Echo machine. I tried to record the blood flow measurements for each heart valve. 

Note: The photo is actually my aortic valve taken during the procedure:)

Repetition and consistency cement themselves often by accident. The ritual is undertaken not for the sake of establishing a persistent pattern but simply because it is a good idea in itself.
Upon establishment, the tradition’s justification warps inward and begins to presuppose itself. The deed is complete because it is tradition to do so.

It is done this way because that is the way it has always been done.

This is not a trap into which we allow ourselves to fall. Novelty is, conversely, a tradition for us. The terrain of GLITCH is rich and varied and it would be shameful to never venture.
Glitch With Friends: Compilation Volume 3 is, for us, the latest ritual in a tradition in which a key constant is an inexorable expansion of our own horizons.

went down bad

'A Vow of Silence', the first album to be released under the Noneless moniker, represents the artist breaking a long musical silence only to engage with a different form of silence. The album reflects the desire for authentic expression that persists despite the inexpressible nature of true meaning. This is how true meaning is silenced, silence being the truest meaning. This album is not that silence itself, but an auditory mirror, silence reflected in music.

Suffer Just To Be

SERA023: @satellite_era presents “Aetherial Pulses EP” - a futuristic sound collage by Mhamed Mansouri, best known as Disektor.

Wrapping up our most active year at the Satellite Era HQ finds us taking a glimpse into what is to come. With 2025 looking to be even busier, we call upon an old friend to guide us into the unknown by setting a strong sonic precedent, while still paying homage to the formative style of our vast audio museum.

Over two years since his label debut on our acclaimed Distant Arrays series, we welcome back Moroccan based producer, sound designer, programmer, and visual artist. He first landed on our radar as a standout in SoundCloud’s experimental niche back in early 2020, the same year as our imprint’s conception. Complementing his production are interactive live performances that utilize creative coding, which generate varied results with each passthrough and are repurposed back into his workstation - a feedback loop tested for success. Founder of Geometric Corruption, the collective works in tandem with us and our friends at glitch.cool to tend to the international community, bringing together experimental electronic enthusiasts from around the world. Rather than conforming to a set approach, he builds on the high-fidelity hyperglitch subculture with a twist of his own - songs that feel more musical and intricate overall. This attribute has ultimately led him to his next offering to the consumers of computer music.

“Aetherial Pulses EP” finds Disektor teetering between digitized realms & the natural world, taking the form of a sonic poem that exhibits glitched maximalism & melodic tones alike. The project still delivers stuttering drum patterns meant to engulf the listener, but also paints the rest of the stereo with a coating of lush ambiance. The project begins with “Reflections,” a mellow entry with a grueling bassline that progresses into a preview of the complexity ahead. The title track serves its purpose as a clear summary of the EP, while heightening the energy with vocal chops that feel almost psychedelic at times. The pulsating synths really begin to take form in “Lush Deviation,” a middle-ground between heavy low-end presence and percussion riding higher frequencies. “Emergence In Motion” recruits frequent collaborator Tenebral Cortex to deliver a seven-minute cinematic experience of its own, which feels like a separate story within the entire narrative. “Waves” is a formidable end to the project, with an eerie yet beautiful piano melody in the outro that leaves it open-ended.

Although “Aetherial Pulses EP” is only Disektor’s second-ever extended play, the project is easily his best and most emotive work yet - a stepping stone for what is next on his musical agenda. The undertones speak of finding senses of tranquility in the decaying Earth around us however we can. It perfectly contributes to our DNA as servants of the experimental intersection and delivers a memorable, sometimes challenging journey.

SERA024: Satellite Era presents "Distant Arrays Volume 08" - the eighth and final edition of the various artist series that has aimed to diversify our collection of experimental electronic music.

25% of total revenue made from this release will be donated to California Community Foundation (CCF) to aid the people of Greater Los Angeles as they struggle with the aftermath of rampant wildfires. This will come directly from the label’s share and not affect the artists - the nonprofit was selected by Iris Ipsum, an artist local to the inflicted areas and an essential part of our team.

For more information, please visit: https://www.calfund.org/funds/wildfire-recovery-fund

All good must arrive to its eventual end - it is with great honor to announce the conclusion of Distant Arrays. After eight unique editions in just over four years, we are ready to allow the beloved series that helped us expand our label worldwide to properly rest. We welcomed 30 artists from around the experimental music sphere to come together and push sonic boundaries further than we could have ever imagined. For our last transmission, we have recruited four promising artists to represent our chosen family of sound architects, each meticulously drafted to help build the future of our collective.

We begin with the return of our dear friend and collaborator Iris Ipsum. Following up on the incredible “Xtilde EP” released with us last year, “Flowform” essentially serves as a bonus track to the project. The Los Angeles based artist effortlessly showcases their ability to capture the essence of golden age electronica, while still producing modern and pristine sounds.

Along with his hip-hop inspired Rsrch Chmcls project, Smokestax has been on our radar for quite some time. Making waves in the American bass scene over the last few years, we welcome one of our favorite New Yorkers with “Squish.” The track is rightfully named after how it sounds - squelchy, slowed braindance gently scratches our itch as the song progresses in high spirits. 

Another exciting addition to our crew is s8jfou, a mysterious French producer, programmer, synth builder, and live performer. A natural jack of all trades, he makes his Satellite Era debut with “Your Silence” - screechy synths clash with punchy breakbeats and an overpowering kick drum. This only marks the beginning of our work with the renowned sonic wizard.

Lastly, we welcome Brooklyn up-and-comer Holovue to share his latest track “Transient” after a successful debut EP recently. Eerie and thought-provoking, the emotive track blankets warm and atmospheric pads over quintessential jungle loops to deliver a formidable signoff to our series finale.

Distant Arrays has been an immersive showcase of our audio/visual capabilities as a collective. We are extremely grateful to have introduced you to our growing team, continuously expanding our newfound interpretation of sound. As difficult as it is to say goodbye to this part of our journey, we are delighted to share what comes next. Until then - we will ride off into the sunset, drenched in the nostalgia of this fruitful audio experiment.

"Stationed beyond the horizon lies a cluster of autonomous satellite arrays - each serving as capsules of detained time, points of transit between diverse concepts, and the sensorial relation between tangible audio and visual worlds. They fill the thin air with varied frequencies and beam optic elements into the minds of drawn newcomers and devoted adherents alike. Though each array hosts different creators from every remote edge of this decaying planet, they communicate with us through the vigorous potential of art. They link together to create a limitless field without borders – only human connection. These are the Distant Arrays..."
