Disc One
01 Sophie Sirota- Slow
My first delve into the multi texture reverb of the Walrus Audio ‘Slötva’ effects pedal and composed using acoustic viola, digital delay, space echo and a looper pedal, this piece explores the joy of the sonic ‘trail’.

04 Field of View- Conscious Departure
I create electronica, mainly using analog gear, drawing inspiration from all kinds of places. Living by the sea keeps me grounded and creative. I’m fascinated by how circuits and voltages can evoke such deep emotions through music.

05 Gagarin- Cingulum
A regular performer at Coastal Electronauts SEMS, Gagarin sadly died earlier this year. This was his last performance for Coastal Electronauts. Cingulum is a track from Gagarin’s latest album, Komorebi. Many thanks to Gagarin’s wife, Noriko for letting us use this recording.

06 John Gallen - UY Scuti
An experimental work featuring a miniature music box enhanced with multiple effects and found manipulated samples. This is only the second piece he has performed live.

Disc Two
01 Sebtic Smile/OSVoS/Head Gardeners- Croissant Encryption
A completely spontaneous collaboration using PO33 and monotron delay (Sebtic Smile), guitar, effects and samplers (Head Gardeners) and PO32, PO12 and KP2 mini (OSVoS), this psychedelic mix of loops and samples finishes with a frenzy of chaotic beats and chops. An unexpected triumph which was a lot of fun.

04 Dave Poole- Solstician Drone No.1
Performed during the Summer Solstice, 2024, David's first live performance for 35 years is a semi-generative piece made for the "Forbidden Planet" themed Coastal Electronauts EMOM. Not exactly "Krell" music, less atonal, perhaps a neighbouring species brought this new sound to the inhabitants of Altair IV?

05 Mowgli TV- Amanita Muscaria
Mowgli TV's approach to music is experimental, utilizing hardware-based setups that often include self-made instruments and obsolete technologies. His influences are diverse, ranging from musique concrète to African drumming, and he often aims to induce trance-like and altered states of consciousness through his improvisational and site-specific performances.
