Nobody has ever asked for more information about The Signal but I’ve decided to write about this project of mine anyway, because I’ve been doing it for over 10 years, so it must be important. There must be something to it.
So below you’ll find out a bit about the history of this ongoing sound project that has consistently found and maintained a listenership of at least 10 people or so.
The Signal: EP115 – 45 minutes of global sounds, the product of a day off and an idiosyncratic library. If you have a free hour, then you could spend 7.5 minutes getting ready to be attentive and still have 7.5 minutes at the end to unwind and recover.
As is traditional, the list of included tracks are built into the mp3 itself, which you can download by clicking on the image above. The link will be available for a limited time only, so even if this is your first visit, it can’t hurt to grab it now and give it a listen later to see if it’s your kind of thing. If it helps any, upwards of 10 people listen to these mixes as they come out and they seem to enjoy them.
The Signal: EP114 – On repeat, forever, a music mix to last ’til everything we know is dust and gravity surrenders. All other mixes can be shuffled off to homes, to play with every lost dog, to watch every soap opera, to eat spaghetti on the same day every week.
As with the previous 113 mixes, this one is available for a limited period of time. The image above links to a page where you can download it. It’s 45 minutes of music, and this time out we’ve got: a choral group team-up featuring artists from Tuva and Bulgaria, electronica, hip hop, rock from Australia, surf music from Spain, reggae from Argentina, pop in Portuguese from San Francisco, and meditations on forever. If you want to know details, you’ll find the tracklist in the id3 tags.
The Signal: EP113 – 45 minutes of beats and noises, designed to accompany such diverse activities as hover-boarding, observing a hover-boarder, design and manufacturer of hover-boards, and whatever it is that you’re doing.
The file will be available for a limited period of time. I don’t know how long. It’s possible that as you’re reading these words, in some far-flung future we can’t even imagine, the file is already gone. I can’t imagine the disappointment you must be feeling. Hang in there, kitten.
If you like what you hear, the track list is in the id3 tags of the mix. Just download that sucker and use your mp3 player to take a look at the file’s properties.
The Signal: EP112 – Partying like giant turtles for 2015. 45 minutes of music for any 45-minute tasks you have to accomplish; a perfect accompaniment. I wonder if I’m going to go do some quick reading to find out if that semicolon is being used even remotely close to how it should be used. I think it’s wrong. Pretty sure that post semicolon bit needs to be a full, related sentence. Might be disqualified as a sentence fragment.
This file’s going to be online for a limited time only, so download away. We’ve got rock music, vaporwave music, the sound of foreign trains, distant mall music, hip hop, outlaw country, experimental music for cats, cumbia and funky organ. That’s a bunch! Holy cats! The track list can be read in the id3 tags of the mp3. Right-click on that sucker. Notes are below if you want to know more.
The Signal: EP111: 45 minutes of music that, if you like, you can pretend was played on the face of this guy. It wasn’t. But isn’t it pleasant to think that it may have been?
