You are listening to the Sleepbot Environmental Broadcast.

You may now be experiencing some of the following sounds:
a low hum ( 'drone' )
birds, crickets, etc. ( 'field recordings' )
nearly dead silence ( 'lowercase sound' )
double-pitched / fast audio ( sorry ... that's a Flash player issue ... it'll auto-correct after a few moments )
If so, please remain lovingly unconcerned, and enjoy!
The title of the current song is shown here.
If you would like to know more about how I implemented the design of this page and the embedded player, look below.
Everything else. A tarot deck, as well as other creaky, dusty material from the late 1990s.
How did I customize this MySpace page?
The design (minimal as it is) was derived from the work of Mike Davidson.
Read his blog posting for some clarification.
You can do a View-Source of his page, grep for style tags, and extract his custom CSS markup.
With that, and a little help from the Inspect capabilities of Firebug, you too can harness the arcanity of the MySpace HTML layout.
The Flash player above is outputting my Shoutcast stream.
The player itself is the FMP MiniCaster and comes highly recommended in the WinAmp Forums.
For an example of how to set it up, do a View-Source on my page, grep for 'minicaster', extract the surrounding object / param / embed heirchary, and customize it for your own purposes.
You can also reference my external configuration file (as is called out in the markup).
All the best to you and a great deal of respect for what you do for ambient music...
I see the The Brothers Quay in your films too! I love their work. (I hated the way that the remake of Solaris made no reference at all to Tarkovsky in the interviews..)
If you update your Ambience for the Masses website, you might change my email addy that's listed there to: zeroohms@zeroohms.com and the label I am currently asssociated with is Lotuspike. Hope all goes well with you & your world,
