Arthur Radio Transmission #24 w/ UP DIED SOUND

“Heat lightning,” those soundless, electrified lines that sometimes fill the sky on hot summer nights, are actually an indication of a faraway storm which may or may not be moving your way. While the accompanying sound of thunder is too distant to hear, the unholy light show remains visible from rooftops for many miles, providing a dazzling and magnificent omen of the oncoming deluge.

DAILY MAGPIE – January 18th – ZEBULON

AMI DANG

UNICORNICOPIA

ILYA MONOSOV

Ami Dang melds classical Sitar with haunting vocals and an array of electronic vibrations to produce an unearthly sound that is truly her own. Unicornicopia complements the night with bizarre orchestral arrangements, synthesized plips and plops, and bubble-gum lyrics that bite you before you realize what’s coming. Ilya Monosov tops it off with wintry strings and synths, and maybe even a hurdy-gurdy if we’re lucky…
