Masters within the evolution of ambient and experimental music over the past forty years, Michal Turtle and Suso Saiz come together for the first time for ‘Static Journeys’, a full-length collaborative album. Unfolding over six diverse tracks, Turtle and Saiz imagine the memories, journeys and textures of half-a-dozen cities borne only of their imagination.

Hot City Orchestra delivers the first release of the new label Internet Is Over. The title track “The Planet” is inspired by the earth, nature, birds singing in the sky, an orchestra playing at the Opera House and a 808 looping forever in Downtown Detroit. “Shhh!” has been recorded to 50% on a Modular System in Berlin Neukölln and to 50% on lake Mosvatnet in Norway. Field recordings, ambient noises and a warm modular pad are a reminder to human mankind to “Shhh!” the f*ck up sometimes.
