14-JUL-2008 - Blog now online

The oft-threatened blog of controversial musical assertions is now online. The opening salvo has not been too confrontational, but future editions may be too brutally honest for some tastes.

14-JUL-2008 - Music available via Archive.org

The decision has been made to post most, if not all, of the music eminating from this project on the Internet Archive. The direct link for the obverse music of Saturnin Sektor is:

14-JUL-2008 - cSound files for some pieces now available

Many of the pieces created under the Saturnin Sektor banner will be created in whole or in part via cSound. As part of participating in the cSound community (which is vital to the continued development of it as the premier low-level synthesis language), I am posting the cSound code for some of the music I have created.

Further info can be found with the individual songs so presented in the MUSIC section of this website.

05-JUN-2008 - PayPal links for CD, Recital

Links to a PayPal shopping cart have been added to the MUSIC page to simplify purchasing the CD.

Today the Sound Diffusion recital from Adam Scott Neal took place. By all accounts it was a disturbing success.

NOTE: No "Friend" requests will be accepted, except for those fellow travellers personally known to the mysterion called Saturnin Sektor.

12-MAY-2008 - CD track listing

The track listing for the upcoming Saturnin Sektor CD is:

1. These Fragments I Have Shored Against My Ruins (6:55)
2. Irrlicht (10:18)
3. The Other Side of Oblivion (4:38)
4. Soon Silence Will Have Passed into Legend (7:06)
5. Dreams Beneath the Shifting Sands (9:44)
6. The Bone Season (7:47)

The CD contains a mixture of ambient, experimental electronic, and droning musical textures, all with a mysterious and obscure approach to the Saturnian and Lovecraftian aspects of the awakened Mind.

Officially, the release date will be May 23 (which happens(?) to be the Day of Disunity in Discordianism). There is nothing particularly Discordian about the music, except the level of discord the music contains in spite of itself.

11-MAY-2008 - Upcoming performance, CD news, Bio

"The Bone Season" will be part of a sound diffusion recital by Adam Scott Neal at the Sonic Arts Research Center in Belfast. The audience will be completed enveloped by the vast 40.6 surround sound system, and some may even live to tell about it.

The finishing touches are being made to the CD master and layout. It should be available in limited release sometime around May 21.

An "About" section has now been added, giving the latest bio for the mysterion calling itself Saturnin Sektor... Reyn til Rûna

02-MAY-2008 - Complete Site Redesign

Saturnin Sektor is unleashed. The World of Horrors is now subtly and irrevocably different.

24-APRIL-2008 - New Music

CDs will be available soon...

A sample of a new song, "These Fragments I Have Shored Against My Ruins", has now been uploaded to the "Music" section. Also, "The Other Side of Oblivion" has been reworked somewhat and an excerpt of the new version has now been uploaded as well; the previous version has disappeared down the memory hole.
