    2. An impromptu Drone special this evening owing to the fact that I got absorbed into listening to several of the pieces in the most recent Disquiet Junto challenge. We also have some experimental things courtesy of tttc, Arcseconds & johnny and a beautiful track from This Occasional Society that ponders the value of creativity.

    1. Disturbing Dreams 003 0:00 / 0:00
    2. Packed into tonight’s truly international Disturbing Dream we have dark ambience from Scotland, soundscapes from Ukraine, field recordings and industrial from the USA, the soundtrack to a post-apocalyptic Brazil, live synth explorations from Japan, Australian ambience, hypnotic French modular synth and even a little Death Jazz from the UK. I guess Disturbing Dreams and universal.

    2. Turn off the lights, shut the curtains or just pull your hat down over your eyes. Turn up your headphones (taking the proper precautions—your hearing is important to me). Basically get ready for another hour of dark, ambient, experimental electronic music.

      Xylander is doing his special night-time voice again which can only mean, it’s time for Disturbing Dreams.
