M87 - Centaurus A (Deep space dark ambient music)
#astronomy #space #ambient #darkambient #rpg #science #scifi #40k #rpg
Centaurus A (also known as NGC 5128) is the closest radio galaxy to Earth, with a supermassive black hole at its highly-active core making it the fith-brightest galaxy in our sky.
This is a particularly murky, obscure and weird piece by M87 standards; I wanted to convey the power and energy that lurks within this galaxy's core (the jets that the central black hole pushes out hit well over half the speed of light) hence the length of the piece and also the heaviness of some of the sounds contained herein...
As always, all sounds played in real time on guitar and bass.

    With Noctilucent Threnody I discovered a new purpose for music. Rather than listening to someone else's message or for purposes of escapism, it helped me focus my own thoughts and drown out other distractions. How many albums can I say contributed to lasting personal growth as opposed to just temporary entertainment? Well . . . it's a short list but it includes NT, and I thank you for having created it.

The capacitors on my Bose Wave cd player are fried so a digital version would hit the spot. The question of what you do technically to make this music with what I assume are conventional electric guitars and effects (I assume "all sounds produced on guitar and bass" means you don't just use them as synth triggers) is almost as intriguing as the music itself.
