Radarstation 2 – Call for tracks
Fantomton is looking for musicians for a sound-project based on samples
taken at the abandoned listening station at Teufelsberg Berlin.
Link to the call:

*The Project*
The abandoned listening station on the Teufelsberg Berlin has a magical
atmosphere. The industrial area with its rusty metal surfaces, broken
glass and the unique acoustic in the domes provide a rich repertoire of
fascinating sounds which reflect the area’s ambience.
We could not resist the attraction of the place and visited it in 2009,
equipped with microphones and recording devices. Subsequently the
recordings were given to musicians in order to get different
interpretations of the sound material. The goal was to translate the
impressions of the place into music.
The result is the release Radarstation:
http://fantomton.de/releases/music/ft001-radarstation
Due to great interest and a lot of positive reactions in the recent
time, we once more would like to motivate artists to use our sound
material to produce new exciting tracks.
*How to contribute*
The tracks should mainly consist of our samples and reflect the special
atmosphere of the area, interpreted by the artists. The resulting works
will be presented on our website and will be offered as “Radarstation 2″
compilation for download. There is also the possibility of a CD release.
The participating tracks should not be longer than 10 minutes and we
would like to receive them in flac format. We will release the
compilation under this creative commons license and need your approval [1].
Deadline is the 25. November 2012.
*Recourses*
You can find our samples in the Fantomon Dropbox:
