To “Mr Nutty” –

Thanks for your comment. In answer to your question: with but few exceptions, the samples come mostly from very obscure sci-fi/fantasy radio serials. The one with “atomic motor” is from an Australian program from (I think) the 60s.

I wonder where you got the dialogue for the background fom? Surely it must be a 50s’ or 60s’ era SciFi movie? “Atomic motor”, “moon rocket”, etc.

Thanks again to C.P. McDill for this awesome piece of soundscape work! It has quickly become one of my favourites.

>”I cant get to the download page! Is it me or the site? I want to check this stuff out after hearing it on the radio though iTunes.”

The Internet Archive, which hosts the mp3 files for these albums, has been suffering frequent server problems lately. Sometimes it helps to check back in after an hour or so, and usually page is back up. An alternative download page to download the Saluki Regicide albums is last.fm, which has the mp3s at a somewhat lower bitrate:

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yes, very weird dreamscapes – as a somewhat deaf person, I can only hear that people are speaking and no clear words, but the intonations with the background sounds results in a very strange mindscape. Very good, recommended for the ambient voices.
