I'VE CREATED A MONSTER.
This is one song I made that features a background field recording piece from Alan Lamb called Last Anzac from his album Night Passage. I've mixed this with some takes and samples from The Conet Project. The result is, well, turn off the lights and tell me.
The Conet Project: Recordings of Shortwave Numbers Stations is a four-CD set of recordings of numbers stations, mysterious shortwave radio stations of uncertain origin believed to be operated by government agencies to communicate with spies "in the field".

Night Passage is another release* culled from Alan Lamb's renowned "wire" recordings, and then some. If you're unfamiliar with Mr. lamb's previous sound excursions, actual field recordings were made of a half-mile section of abandoned telegraph wires located in Western Australia's outback.
Last Anzac opens on a strong mechanical thrumming, sounding like a contact mike attached directly to an overloaded transformer. The powerful drone shifts through various phases of existence, sometime growing even more intense, other times fading to a soft, almost-tuned chorus. Squawling waves like feedback resound as no other stringed instrument could aspire to. Unfortunately, the Faraway Wind Organ was eventually decimated by lightning and termites.

You have done ever so well with your experiments, but how far have you come with infrasound yet ? I would love to know. Greetings from Al in Ramsgate, Kent, UK.
