I had a listen to this while walking through the countryside very close to dark, absolutely fantastic stuff!
Very spiritual and meditative with brilliant vocal harmonies and layering!
Genuinely felt like an NDE/ethereal fever dream. :D

Interesting. There once was a very good song here.

This makes me wonder.

Does anyone have any info in this 'desfax' thing?

They posted another great piece. I wonder if that's been replaced with code, too.

Hmmm

I had a go at translating the code but got nothing concrete in return. I did however clean up the audio and slow it down for clarity.

Anyone on here willing to help transcribe? :P

I think it's BOC.

Really good stuff, in my opinion. Good enough that I listen to it when I want to get inside my head.

Wouldn't it be a nice feeling to know that BOC were among all of us here, just enjoying the sense of community, throwing out tidbits, and having fun with like minded folks?

Yep, their other links have been replaced with the morse code audio. Whoever this is that posted these must have had some kind of ulterior motive since they haven't logged in since the last post.

Whether it's BoC themselves or just someone messing about with us is anyone's guess.

This link still contains audio.:

I've reached out to this person because I would like more of their music but received no response.

I really just want to know where to get more of this person's music.

Whitehorse Morse Code says: except the lord build the house they labor in vain that build it

still awaiting the confirmation for 73756D6D6974206C6F737420696E2068656176656E but I asked Morse subreddit for help and one user stated: "I know that this doesn't have anything to do with deciphering the code, but for some reason when I downloaded the file to my computer, it added a picture of the death tarot card as the album photo on Windows Media Player." Can anyone else confirm this?

The tarot also appears as the user avatar picture.
And the favicon for the website with the audio file.

Just visited reddit, huge thanks for doing this oakmoss&amber! :D
Seems like we got ourselves a little musical mystery.

It's the least I could do. Apprently 73756D6D6974206C6F737420696E2068656176656E says the same thing.

except the lord build the house they labor in vain that build it

Psalm 127

Unless the Lord builds the house,
They labor in vain who build it;
Unless the Lord guards the city,
The watchman keeps awake in vain.
2 It is vain for you to rise up early,
To retire late,
To eat the bread of painful labors;
For He gives to His beloved even in his sleep.

3 Behold, children are a gift of the Lord,
The fruit of the womb is a reward.
4 Like arrows in the hand of a warrior,
So are the children of one’s youth.
5 How blessed is the man whose quiver is full of them;
They will not be ashamed
When they speak with their enemies in the gate.

“I do actually believe that there are powers in music that are almost supernatural,” ... “I think you actually manipulate people with music, and that is definitely what we are trying to do.”

Exactly. There's enough in all of that to pique my interest.

It looks like the thread titles posted by desfax are Hexadecimal codes. Someone even called it in one of the other posts from this user.

6F6365616E2062656E6561746820646573657274 - "ocean beneath desert"

73756D6D6974206C6F737420696E2068656176656E - "summit lost in heaven"

"White horse" = first horseman of the apocalypse

"Ocean beneath desert" = Mars?

Mars is the god of war, which is the second horseman of the apocalypse

I'm too caffeinated for this crap.

I wish whoever is behind the music would present some more music.

Aside from directly asking them in a thread they created, "Hey, got any more?", I'm not really sure how to get their attention. Seems like they would at least SEE this and respond. Not doing so just confuses.

So, a story about one of the tracks that disappeared...
I was driving by myself around a massive lake and the music just perfected the entire drive. I had it in a playlist with a version of Echus and some other random track a Twoism member had posted via Vocaroo. They blended perfectly.
This repeated a few times and it's to the point now that I just assume it's BOC.

I wish to insert an emoji that indicates me laughing hard enough that I actually farted when I read this but I'm incredibly new to this and have no idea how. :)
