Well, I'm not too sure Nadja helped set the scene, but if I can convince my wife this is how we should spend the afternoon, then it should be a whole lot more fun Nebula Nine
The Universe is full of mysterious flashes in the sky called “fast radio bursts”. These bright bursts of radio waves shine for only a few milliseconds. In that instant, they release about a million times more energy than the Sun. Since their discovery in 2007, astronomers have found fewer than 20 – all coming from outside our galaxy, scattered randomly across the sky. But telescopes typically observe small patches of space at a time. If astronomers extrapolate to the entire sky, they estimate as many as 10,000 bursts could be flashing every day. And no one knows what they are. Scientists were searching for pulses of radio waves – from, for instance, rapidly-spinning neutron stars called Pulsars. These city-sized stars, as dense as an atomic nucleus, can spin more than a thousand times per second. As they rotate, they swing a beam of radiation around like a lighthouse, producing radio signals that appear as pulsating blips. But this one signal was weird. The signal was so bright that it saturated the electronics in the telescope. Starting in 2012, astronomers detected several more bursts using other telescopes, confirming that the signals really came from space. And not just anywhere in space. They are from outside our galaxy, maybe as far as billions of light years away, according to initial measurements of a phenomenon called the "dispersion effect". Radio bursts could be a sign of strange and new physics.
"When you are listening to the sound of pulsars, you are listening to actual star-size oscillators with the most minimal and longest lasting drones in the whole universe." HLER
Ps - Oops! I've gone too far and now my wife's gone and impeached me for pornorific behaviour. If only I hadn't provided these documents!!
More Bs - Maybe I shouldn't have explained how effective this one was... Even more - I guarantee- just have 1 Large Glass of Water, put this on the Stereo when you go to bed and in the morning you'll find wood. Guaranteed!
With their second album Smalts use their beautiful electronic, avant-garde anti-pop songs to bring an ode to (Dutch) poetry. Nevelglans is a calm, beautiful an at times bizarre record that remains interesting no matter how often you play it.

Freezer is an album of raw and emotive improvisations by Serbian violinist-vocalist Tijana Stanković. Her chosen theme, the proverbial ‘freezer’, makes for a stark setting, serving as both a musical metaphor and literally the echoey meat freezer in Bratislava where the music was created and recorded. “Freezer is a place of cruelty and hope,” Stanković says. “It is a metaphor - an inner place where thoughts and feelings wait to be addressed.”
Though a dedicated free improviser, Stanković’s background in folk and Ethnomusicology puts her in touch with an ancient emotional syntax. Her key tools - violin and vocals - both yearn with an organic and creaking fragility, tied irrevocably to old cultures. As a means to express, they offer boundless possibilities (something Stanković has long explored in a vast array of collaborative groups, ensembles, and projects), but locker herself in the Freezer, on these recordings Stanković gains access to some potent introverted sonic realms, putting them in stasis to keep them at their most genuine, honest, and revealing. “To freeze,” she explains, ”is to preserve.”
Each of the four lengthy improvisations captured on Freezer takes its aesthetic to a logical endpoint. For example, ‘From dust and shine’ is a trip into gentle bow strokes over jarring and fragile violin strings, droning and grating between ethereal half-melodies and gentle moans. Stanković’s violin can at times evoke a creaky wheel as much as a musical instrument.
Though very much locked away in her own world of free and idiosyncratic music, the melodic character, stark sentiments, and heterophony of Balkan folk also play an important role. Closing track, “salty words” has Stanković meditate loudly on a trembling violin string repetition, wordlessly vocalizing a vast spectrum of inner angst.
Freezer is the culmination of Stanković’s abilities as both instrumentalist and improvising, coalescing her experience into a uniquely personal statement, aptly captured to tape in a freezer. Living until recently in Budapest, Stanković is now based in Belgrade.
“I would like to dedicate this release to my dearest friends who were there for me when I needed them the most.”
