This track was inspired by the Disquiet Junto Project 0608 (see below for details);
A field recording made on an IC train in the Netherlands (and already used for the track https://soundcloud.com/rabmusiclab/aankomst-amsterdam-zuid) was fed into the free transcription tool https://editor.flixier.com/transcribe/. The resulting Spanish text was translated into English. The free text-to-speech tool https://ttsfree.com/ was then used to create the voice pronouncing this text.

The field recording and the voice are accompanied by various instruments improvised to the existing soundscape.

The track-title is one of the translated sentences the AI has thought to recognize from the sounds of the train's interior.

The lyrics created by this magical approach are:

Marta,
Educates,
Alicia.
Thank you.
For if we are to what we are.
I have,
I don't know to yes.
Left number, the B.
Yes,
no nothing.
All right,
Miles,
I love me.

Sorry, Marta.
Thank you, Marta.
Don't go on.

Fallen (Radio Edit)

Carpet the Water-naviarhaiku514

I recorded a track, then played it through a Bluetooth receiver at the limit of its transmission range. I also recorded the EMF around the receiver, while playing the same track at distance. 

The three tracks were merged, using vocoders, and AudioThing's Motor to help add some musicality to the broken Bluetooth track.
