London’s Subterranean Secret: The Forgotten Mail Train

This is fascinating...  I only copied maybe an 1/8th of the article.

http://www.silentuk.com/?p=2792



For as long as I can remember explorers have joked, discussed and cried themselves to sleep over the possibility the Post Office Railway could be explored. Those keen to attempt entry desperately clawed at every scrap of information like a starving hobo snacking on bread crumbs. Just the idea of access, let alone the task of traversing the line seemed fraught with impossible obstacles and doubt.

With all the abandoned postal depots now converted or with a foot thick dump of concrete covering what would have been access below, all potential avenues of access pointed solely to the infiltration of live postal depots. In other words, somehow getting into a site and its central building, working your way down an…

podcast of this week's Blind Flight

Posted by Scott Lawlor on May 18, 2013 at 8:49am 0 Comments

Before I get to the playlist, I have a question.  Since I use wordpress for these posts and that propagates to both Facebook and Twitter, should I still continue putting the posts up here or do most of you guys follow me on facebook or twitter as well.  I just want to be caucious about posting redundantly if the majority of people who are interested in the program already see the posts on other social media.  Thanks for the feedback and if you'd like to add me as a friend on either of the aforementioned services, my username on both is sklawlor.

 

Now, on with the podcast details.

New Album from Toaster - "Theophany"

Posted by Todd Elliott on May 17, 2013 at 8:38pm 0 Comments

I have just released my newest effort : "Theophany" is a soundtrack to a film that doesn't exist (though one of the tracks is a soundtrack to a film that does), about drunks in a desert, God, and possibly death. You can download it for free/name your own price. 

http://toaster.bandcamp.com/album/theophany

OR buy a USB stick with everything I have officially released up until now, encased in a beeswax block. It's a neat artifact, and it smells like honey. How many other albums out there smell like honey? Very few, I'm going to wager.

Subterranean re-released

Posted by Christopher Alvarado on May 17, 2013 at 6:55pm 0 Comments

All pleasures, no pain. Calculated repetition saturates the drone with sophistication. Everything on TT has been thought out as a scrabble championship game. From its sound production to self created noises and ambient black clouds, it surrounds you with primal swamplands, and black ice drowning in the frozen air. Perfect double disk for the ambient/avant-garde lover!http://roachcliprecords.bandcamp.com/album/subterranean

Who would you like to see record in collaboration?

Posted by Mark Cotton on May 17, 2013 at 2:15pm 6 Comments

Which two (or more) artists would you like to see work together on a studio recording that you haven't heard together before?

For me, I would like to see what Jon Hassell and Steve Roach would do together.  While I love their solo work and what they've done with other musicians, I think they would be a nice fit for each other.

My old friend Phonaut is releasing a CD with Material Object dedicated to Pete Namlook - Kickstarter

Posted by jkn on May 16, 2013 at 1:00pm 3 Comments

 

I first met Phonaut when I played a 4 hour improv radio gig on his radio show from midnight to 4 am with James Johnson and Vir Unis back in 2003.  We've stayed in touch ever since - and I'm very proud to back this kickstarter campaign.   Take a look - if you like what you see, consider backing it as well.  Thanks.  John K-N

 

Info:  (Kickstarter Page)

 

First collaboration between Material Object & Phonaut, recorded Nov. 2012. Submitted to FAX but unknown whether Namlook listened to it.

Member Releases

 

Updated May 9

 

Hello dear rM music lovers. Im now diving into some new member music and here it is.

"Jaguars & Shamans" is a journey into the dark realms of Amazonia. Inspired by the mystic visions from our members Jack Hertz (US) and Cousin Silas (UK), this is a very powerful music that combines traditional and cinematic elements.

"Wetlands" is a new solo album by our member Jack Hertz. The music contains electricity, water, nature, guitar/sitar, gas, synth/arp tones and is inspired by places of greenery and water where life abounds in ponds, marshes and swamps.

"Ballard Landscapes 3" is a new solo album by our member Cousin Silas and third collectively inspired selection of JG Ballard inspired tracks. You hear delicate synth and guitar sounds on this album  that visualize an aural picture of special scenaries.

"Shambala" by our members Symatic Star (Simon Walsh from Australia) and Jack Hertz shows their vision of a mystical kingdom beyond the snow peaks of the Himalayas. Dive into tibetan and shamanic tones, voices, sublime spheres and beautiful rhythms.Three new re-releases by our member Darrell Burgan aka Palancar containing some internet radio concerts that he did between 2004 and 2007. This is totally live music on synths. My very favorite piece is "The Exalted" (this one is truly special).

Love and music : )

Jana
