Maestro de Espias (Spy Master)
Nov 06, 2021, 02:14 PM
"An original 1960s tape recording of shortwave Spanish language numbers stations is cryptically woven into this original musical composition of a reimagined spy network broadcast.
In addition to the numbers broadcast, you are listening to musical Morse code-like transmissions, and bursts of shortwave static.
The frenetic changes in musical passages occur as spymasters discover their codes are compromised and the realization dawns that they may have to eventually face the music."
Composition by Tom Thompson.
