about

Vastitas Borealis—Latin for ‘northern waste.’ Stretching across the high latitudes of the northern hemisphere of Mars, with an average altitude of approximately 2.75 miles below the mean radius of the planet, it is one of the vastest depressions in the Solar System. Dunes and hills rise up above its surface, formed by crushing and left from craters, respectively. The highest point within Vastitas Borealis is the extinct volcano Olympus Mons; reaching some 72 thousand feet above the baseline, it is the tallest mountain in all of our planetary system. In Vastitas Borealis, spectacular sandstorms can be admired, as well as the rising and setting of the Sun and the planet’s two moons: Deimos and Phobos. In the summer, methane is released from the globe’s surface, producing enormous, wispy clouds of carbon dioxide which conceal the peak of the mighty volcano.

Sketch for Winter VII - Abyss: For Cello
by Louise Bock

supported by 4 fans who also own “Vastitas Borealis”

i bought this because it appears in jeff tobias' (sunwatchers) bandcamp collection (right beside my first solo album)... i had been speaking with an artist on my label (cloud recordings) about our mutual love of avant-garde cello, and this album really appeals to me... if you are interested in layered, morphed cello, check out the sister sai album, extempore (which is available on bandcamp). sister sai played the festival i put on, called cloud recordings festival, and was extraordinary! cloudrecordings

Awase
by Nik Bärtsch

Beautiful minimalism from Nik Bärtsch’s Ronin, the songs on “Awase” consist of small pinpricks of sound; it’s both moody & moving. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 28, 2018
