If you visit the Deep Audio website, you can pre-order the new S.E.T.I. ‘Baikal’ album. There is also a link to a promo video. The limited box set (100 copies), which includes a ‘Baikal’ T-Shirt, is shown below.
This new double cd compilation has been released by Zoharum from Poland. Featuring exclusive tracks by S.E.T.I., Phelios, Ah Cama-Sotz, Zenial and a host of others. It’s packaged in a beautifully designed gatefold digipack and is dedicated to Robert Anton Wilson.
The DVD of visuals for the Wave Gotik Treffen gig on 24th May has been finalised in After Effects and iDVD. The set list, to be played using Reason and Ableton Live will be Knowledge, Sylana Idio Sua, Steppe, Mare Crisium and Journey. The older tracks have been re-arranged using the original samples and MIDI files, but updated with a deeper sound. ‘Steppe’, a track from the next S.E.T.I. album, contains old Russian UFO witness testimony!
I’ve been neglecting this site somewhat, posting quite a bit of download release info, but never really engaging the visitor – I apologise! Newest material I’m working on includes a S.E.T.I. track called ‘Steppe’, after a story my sister sent me. As we all know, the Russians have a long history of UFO sightings, well now it appears that they have UFO’s under the sea too! A very worthwhile subject for my investigation. The track is approximately 8 minutes long, with haunting sounds aplenty, and some great Ableton-mashed up Reaktor sequences.
There will be more tracks like this to come, and once I have a big enough collection, I shall be looking for a label to release them into the wild.
For those interested in the technical nature of my S.E.T.I. work, this particular material uses Ableton Live as a sound production and mixing environment, with other sounds being supplied by Reaktor, Reason, iPod Touch running Jasuto and Plogue Bidule.
