Trouble at the Hellhouse (Elephant Graveyard Radio Hour Ep. 11)
Description: We were invited to do this hour on NTS's Night Shift show earlier this month. So this is a bit of a different kind of show built around the late night themes of Night Shift. It's about insomnia, memory, and the corrosiveness of intrusive thoughts. Something like that. Anyway, back in the next week or so with Randy so don't worry about it. Thanks and sorry, for everything.
About Night Shift:
"Anyone that's ever worked a "night shift" (bars, hospitals, taxis, etc.) knows that there's a strange time of night, usually around 4:30-5:30 am, when the most subtle sounds of the world seem extra dramatic. The sound of a lighter dropping at a gas station. Or the wind through palm trees. The kind of sounds that you don't get the chance to hear when the rest of the world is aroused, but in the context of more ambient, experimental, and dark music, is inspiring and suggestive. It's the music of film noir, Miles Davis, and Edward Hopper paintings, but also early AM radio classical music, Boards of Canada, Sunn 0))), Headless Horseman, Wolves in the Throne Room. Night shift always takes on the flavor of the guest's preference but is built around that time of night, and the music that makes you think or feel it."
