Voices of the Outermost ~ NASA releases actual recordings from space — and they’re absolutely breathtaking BY CHRIS COPLANON OCTOBER 20, 2014, 10:45Pm NASA releases actual recordings from space — and they’re absolutely breathtaking Space Earlier this year, Lefse Records released The Space Project, in which acts like Beach House, Spiritualized, The Antlers, and more used actual recordings from the Voyager space probe to create songs and soundscapes. Though a neat gimmick, with some intriguing submissions, the resulting album didn’t necessarily reflect the true sonic aesthetic of our solar system. For that, we turn to NASA, who has shared actual electromagnetic recordings taken from throughout our very own solar system. No one may be able to hear you scream in space, but that whole great, black abyss miles above our heads is just teeming with noises. From the brooding, slightly ambient rumblings of Saturn and its rings to the more romantic Neptune, which sounds like sitting on a back porch in Tennesse in mid-July, our solar system’s soundtrack is as emotionally-nuanced as it is almost cinematic. Just wait till you hear what Uranus sounds like, though. Listen in below. Or, enjoy live, 24-hour sounds via Radio Astronomy
