Part 2

Here are a couple of recordings of sounds exclusively from the internet. They are somewhat messy and I’ve been wondering since January if I should post them. Both parts feature live streaming audio from hydrophones (underwater microphones), several webcams with fairly high-quality audio, and radio noise from online Very Low Frequency (VLF) radio receivers. In part 1 in particular, the tones were created by feeding the VLF radio noise into a VST frequency shifter and “tuning” it until I got the repeating tones. In addition, the sound was back fed into a microphone simultaneously which captured the sound of my room. That was actually a mistake, but I decided I liked the added room ambience.
