SIGNALVOID

The UK-based SIGNALVOID project is a noise music compilation. Participants can submit up to three noise tracks, each of exactly a minute in length, with no silence or fades at either the beginning or end of each piece. The comp will be designed to be played on shuffle. They are looking for new and original material in 16-bit WAV format. Track filenames should be formatted as follows: [artistname] - [trackname].wav.

They want photos for use on the SIGNALVOID Tumblr and potentially in the physical package. Photos should be hi-res and should reflect the theme of "noise". Subterrestrial's "Cactus Garden" digital manipulation piece was featured on this blog (see thumbnail above).

Send all tracks and photos to signal.void@hotmail.co.uk

Portuguese fashonistas like Subterrestrial?

I just recently discovered three videos on Youtube (apparently recapping some Fashion show in Portugal) that feature The Polar Opening as Viewed from Space, Ueno Park After Dark, Into the Chasm, Tahoe Shimmer and The Key and the Eye from Subterrestrial's self-titled album. Pretty random, but interesting as well I may add.

Sadayatana 072: Monstrous Fancies

Sadayatana's March 17th podcast featured (amongst other things) the title track to Subterrestrial's new Waveform album. A nice little bonus, since the album hadn't been officially released yet! Here's a little hint; I usually have a set release date in mind but I sometimes upload things a few days early if I know I'm going to be pressed for time. So you may get a little pre-release bonus if you watch RSS feeds, etc....

Sadayatana is a live internet broadcast and archived podcast featuring Dark Ambient, Space Music, Experiment, Soundscapes and related styles. Focus is on both live performance and tracks culled from various netlabels. Please check out the podcast and help support this great radio show!

v.a. - "Sincerity Is The Key"

No other title could be better suited to a compilation which celebrates a netlabel who has done so much for underground music and creative commons media in such a short period of time. In the words of our esteemed label owner:

"This compilation is an anniversary release to celebrate the one millionth download on Sirona-Records!
The only words I can say are: Thank you for everything! When I started Sirona, I never expected so much love
and dedication from all the people who contributed to it. We have already made something of which we can be proud, but,
please remember: The adventure continues..." -Arnaud Barbe

Tipping the scales at nine hours and 118 artists, this is indeed a celebration. Spanning seven virtual discs, "Sincerity Is The Key" tips the scales at just under 1GB of music, covering everything from dance and electronica to punk and metal to ambient and noise. It's unlikely that you'll run out of things to listen to with this great, free collection on your hard drive or portable listening device. Did I also mention that this compilation features an exclusive track by Subterrestrial called "Ocean Beach?"
