RhoDeo 2045 Expanse 16

 Hello,



Here today, naturally my mission of trying to breakthough the wall of nonsense build by the supposed smartest men on the planet is continuing as chinks start to appear, their arrogant stupidity set us back decades if not more, electro-magnetics is clean energy and would have delivered us not only flying cars, but flying saucers aswell and who knows a pathway into other dimensions..Meanwhile The Expanse's Calibans War continues today.

Conventional redshift observations seems to indicate that the Universe is expanding faster today than it did in the past.

As written in a previous Picture of the Day, “dark energy” is a force that is thought to drive the expansion of the Universe. However, like “dark matter” it cannot be detected with any instrument. Rather than acknowledging problems with the theories, astronomers resort to increasingly arcane ideas about matter distribution. One example of their ideas is that space is expanding, so all cosmic structures are in motion relative to that expansion.

Recently, researchers from the University of Hawaii suggested that half of that motion comes from the Virgo Cluster’s massive gravity, along with the “…expansion of the Local Void as it becomes ever emptier.”

A previous Picture of the Day commented on the discovery of a “cosmic void” based on the detection of a lower temperature region in space. The void extends for more than a billion light-years, as astronomers reckon distance. It is those voids, and the pull from superclusters, that lead astrophysicists to believe they can confirm dark energy’s existence.

Density variations in the Universe are said to increase the gravitational energy imparted to microwave emissions from deep space. Conversely, lower density regions are thought to weaken the signals, because there is reduced mass. Looking at microwave signals from telescopes like the Very Large Array, there appears to be a wide expanse where microwave radiation possesses a larger energy curve than it should exhibit. The problems associated with the Cosmic Microwave Background are not the topic of this paper. Suffice to say, what was thought to be radiation from deep space is really radiation from Earth’s oceans.

Nobel laureate, Sal Perlmutter, is quoted as saying: “The Universe is made mostly of dark matter and dark energy and we don’t know what either of them is.”

Two of the most active phenomena in astrophysics could be false premises. On the other hand, plasma makes up 99.99% of the Universe. It is a fascinating convergence that the volume of gravitational mass invented to save Big Bang cosmology is the same as the mass of plasma that is overlooked. In an Electric Universe, electricity drives galaxies and their associated stars. Birkeland currents have a longer-range attractive force than gravity by several orders of magnitude, diminishing with the square root of the distance from the current axis – which could account for the anomalous movement of stars as they revolve around the galactic core, as well as the anomalous acceleration of galaxies in deep space.

Instead of accepting that “anomalies” exist because the Big Bang theory is faulty, astronomers resort to the absurd idea that space can be pulled, twisted, or stretched.

As physicist and Electric Universe pioneer, Hannes Alfvén said:

“I have never thought that you could obtain the extremely clumpy, heterogeneous universe we have today, strongly affected by plasma processes, from the smooth, homogeneous one of the Big Bang, dominated by gravitation.” (From A. L. Peratt, “Dean of the Plasma Dissidents”, Washington Times, supplement: The World and I, May 1988)

Since the dawn of the Space Age, perhaps no celestial body in the solar system has proved more surprising to astronomers than the planet Venus. Before the arrival of the earliest space probes, some noted scientists believed that Venus would be earthlike, with water clouds, oceans and abundant vegetation. However, well known to those who have followed this series, it was Dr. Immanuel Velikovsky who made the outrageous prediction that Venus would be superhot, based on his hypothesis of the planet’s recent, cometary origins.

Today, countless Venusian phenomena continue to puzzle planetary scientists, including the planet’s super fast winds; its odd, slow backward spin; its vast magnetotail; and even the recent discovery by the ESA’s Venus Express spacecraft of a surprisingly powerful electric field. In recent decades, Wal Thornhill, Chief Science Advisor of The Thunderbolts Project, has outlined his own reconstruction of Venus’ role in the recent, extraordinary history of the solar system.

In Part One of this two-part presentation, Wal begins by recounting this history, which he offered in his 2004 article, Cassini’s Homecoming, which he wrote prior to the arrival of the Cassini-Huygens spacecraft at Saturn. And as Thornhill explains, while astronomers to this day refer to Venus as Earth’s twin, the most likely Venusian sibling may be found in the Saturnian system – that is, the moon Titan.

The Expanse is a series of science fiction novels (and related novellas and short stories) by James S. A. Corey, the joint pen name of authors Daniel Abraham and Ty Franck. The first novel, Leviathan Wakes, was nominated for the Hugo Award for Best Novel in 2012. The series as a whole was nominated for the Best Series Hugo Award in 2017.

As of 2019, The Expanse is made up of eight novels and eight shorter works - three short stories and five novellas. At least nine novels were planned, as well as two more novellas. The series was adapted for television by the Syfy Network, also under the title of The Expanse, then they dropped the ball despite the succes of the series, i suspect the whole thing got too serious (expensive) so once again Syfy network proved they can't handle success. Anyway fans were outraged and got Amazon Prime to pick it up for a fourth and fifth series and considering the mountain of money Jeff Bezos sits on i suspect several more as long as the fans keep cheering.

The Expanse is set in a future in which humanity has colonized much of the Solar System, but does not have interstellar travel. In the asteroid belt and beyond, tensions are rising between Earth's United Nations, Mars, and the outer planets.

The series initially takes place in the Solar System, using many real locations such as Ceres and Eros in the asteroid belt, several moons of Jupiter, with Ganymede and Europa the most developed, and small science bases as far out as Phoebe around Saturn and Titania around Uranus, as well as well-established domed settlements on Mars and the Moon.

As the series progresses, humanity gains access to thousands of new worlds by use of the ring, an artificially sustained Einstein-Rosen bridge or wormhole, created by a long dead alien race. The ring in our solar system is two AU from the orbit of Uranus, and passing through it leads to a hub of starless space approximately one million kilometers across, with more than 1,300 other rings, each with a star system on the other side. In the center of the hub, which is also referred to as the "slow zone", an alien space station controls the gates and can also set instantaneous speed limits on objects inside of the hub as a means of defense.


The story is told through multiple main point-of-view characters. There are two POV characters in the first book and four in books 2 through 5. In the sixth and seventh books, the number of POV characters increases, with several characters having only one or two chapters. Tiamat's Wrath returns to a more limited number with five. Every book also begins and ends with a prologue and epilogue told from a unique character's perspective.

Caliban's War
Eighteen months after the events of Leviathan Wakes, the solar system is in a precarious balance while they watch unknowable events unfold on the planet Venus. Earth and Mars are still poised for battle, and someone didn't recognize the warning that the Eros Incident held for humanity.

Major character arcs

James Holden is the captain of the salvaged Martian warship Rocinante. He and his crew have worked for the Outer Planets Alliance for 18 months since what’s become known as the Eros Incident, and the job just doesn’t feel right. While assisting a botanist in the search for his daughter, Holden comes across signs that people are still trying to tame the protomolecule, and the threat comes very close to home. Breaking his OPA ties, he becomes an ever-more-important piece in the four-way chess game for who will run the solar system.

Chrisjen Avasarala is a high-ranking UN official who knows how to get things done. Plugged in to all sources of information, she’s simultaneously monitoring events on Earth, Mars, Ganymede and Venus, though the last one is the toughest to predict what will happen next. Seeing shifts coming but not able to completely grasp what they mean, she accepts a post that takes her away from the action knowing she is playing her expected part until it is time to do the unexpected. Then, she meets James Holden for the first time aboard his ship, trying to defuse a solar-system-wide war.

Bobbie Draper is a Martian Marine stationed on Ganymede, one of Jupiter’s largest moons and known as the breadbasket of the outer planets. After she witnesses the brutal defeat and destruction of military forces on both sides of a conflict by a third party, she is taken to Earth to participate in peace talks, but doesn’t follow the party line and gets in trouble with her leaders. Now helping Chrisjen Avasarala, she must quickly adapt to interplanetary politics and office intrigue. Later moving her duties to space, her military training comes in handy once again.

Praxidike Meng is a botanist working on Ganymede when tensions erupt. His daughter is lost in the chaos, and he finds information that she was actually taken from her daycare before the action. He tries to find her in the decaying conditions of his home, but latches on to James Holden as a source of hope. Eventually becoming the face of the crisis at Ganymede, his efforts to find his daughter’s abductors have interstellar ramifications.

Plot summary

On Ganymede, Mei Meng is kidnapped from her preschool by her doctor. Several hours later, Earth and Martian space marines are attacked and effortlessly killed by a super soldier, with Bobbie Draper, a Martian marine, the only survivor. Earth and Mars begin a shooting war which throws Ganymede into chaos. In the aftermath, Mei's father Praxidike Meng fruitlessly searches for his daughter in the midst of the societal breakdown in the Ganymede colony.

Several months later, the crew of the Rocinante are tasked with delivering emergency aid to Ganymede. Meng spots James Holden during a food riot and asks the crew to help find his daughter. They agree and are able to trace her kidnappers to unused tunnels on the moon. Holden, Meng, and ship mechanic Amos Burton discover a secret lab. In the midst of a shootout with lab security, they inadvertently release another super soldier who kills some of the lab personnel. In the wake of the battle, the crew find remnants of the protomolecule and the corpse of Mei's friend, who was being treated by Mei's doctor for immunodeficiency. The crew rush to escape the station as more chaos erupts around them, and are able to make it back aboard the Rocinante.

Draper is brought to the peace talks between Earth and Mars occurring on Earth, giving testimony regarding the super soldier attack on Ganymede. She violates diplomatic protocol and is dismissed by the Martian delegation, but is then hired by Chrisjen Avasarala, who is leading the UN negotiations. Draper discovers that Avasarala's assistant is betraying her, leading Avasarala to conclude that her UN superiors are trying to get rid of her, from which she deduces that a group within the UN is responsible for the super soldier attack. Avasarala allows Draper to be brought along as her bodyguard on a slow-moving yacht headed to Ganymede on an ostensible relief mission.

On their way to Tycho station, the Rocinante crew discovers a super soldier stowed away in their cargo hold. They are able to lure out the creature using radioactive bait before vaporizing it with the ship's exhaust. The Rocinante is damaged during the encounter, but the crew learn more about the super soldiers. Holden confronts Fred Johnson, who he believes controls the only other sample of the protomolecule. Johnson denies involvement with the Ganymede incident and fires Holden's crew. They help Meng release a video asking for help searching for Mei, raising enough money to continue the search. Upon receiving information about Mei's doctor, Meng deduces that the super soldiers are being created on a base on Io. With the Rocinante repaired, they set out to recover Mei.

On board the yacht, Avasarala sees Meng's video appeal and learns that a UN detachment is heading to intercept the Rocinante. The crew of the yacht prevent her from warning Holden, claiming that their communication systems are broken. When they refuse her demands to get the yacht repaired, Avasarala has Draper take control of the vessel. Avasarala sends a warning to Holden, and she and Draper board a racing pinnace to rendezvous with the Rocinante. After meeting Holden's crew, Avasarala and Draper share notes of the super soldiers. Realizing that they are several days away from being destroyed by the UN detachment, Avasarala convinces the crew to let her send this information to her contacts within the UN to prevent an all-out war.

Draper and Avasarala convince the Martian fleet to help protect the Rocinante. This culminates in a space battle between the UN detachment, the Martian forces, and a second UN fleet loyal to Avasarala. With the UN Secretary General recalling the admiral hostile to the Rocinante, the battle ends in victory for the Martians and Avasarala's faction. The crew lands on Io, where Amos and Meng rescue Mei along with other immunodeficient children. Draper kills a super soldier using knowledge about its capabilities. The crew heads back to Luna, where the people responsible for the super soldier project are brought to justice. Avasarala is promoted, Meng is hired to oversee efforts to restore Ganymede, Draper returns to Mars, and the Rocinante takes a contract escorting a supply ship. Throughout the story, the solar system had been watching changes on Venus, which culminate with the launch of something unknown as the book ends.

An accomplished writer and musician, Aidan Baker has his artistic fingers in many pies. After graduating from Montreal's McGill University with a degree in Literature and Religious Studies, Baker released a four-song acoustic cassette as "Aodhan" (the Gaelic spelling of his name). He also teamed up with two fellow Toronto musicians to create ARC, an ambient guitar-driven trio which garnered much praise for its innovation and integrity. The group released three albums, including Two in 2001. Having been published in major literary magazines nationally and internationally, Baker released his debut album Element in 2000. In 2001, he released his follow-up, Letters, a concept album based loosely around letters from both Jack the Ripper and the Marquis de Sade.
Aidan Baker is a classically-trained multi-instrumentalist using the electric guitar as his primary instrument. Using prepared and alternate methods of playing the guitar, along with various electronic effects, Baker creates music which generally falls within the ambient/experimental genre but draws on influences from rock, electronic, classical, and jazz. A highly prolific artist, Baker has released numerous recorded works, both solo and with various group projects, on such independent labels as Gizeh Records, Pleasence Records, Important Records, Alien8 Recordings, and his own imprint, Broken Spine Productions. Baker is also the author of several books of poetry. A regular live performer, Baker has toured extensively around the world, including appearances at such international festivals as FIMAV, SXSW, Incubate, Unsound, and Mutek, among others. Originally from Toronto, Canada, Baker currently resides in Berlin, Germany.

Mnemosyne was a trio formed in Toronto, Canada in 2002 featuring Aidan Baker on guitar, Richard Baker (ARC) on drums, and Rodin Columb on bass. The group created atmospheric post-rock and released one full-length album, The Air Grows Small Fingers, on Piehead Records.

ARC was a trio made up of Aidan Baker, Richard Baker, & Christopher Kukiel formed in Toronto, Canada in 2000. The group’s sound is centred on the melodic loops, textures, & samples provided by heavily-effected guitar & other melodic instruments. This is overlaid with tribal-esque rhythms provided by various percussive instruments, creating a roiling tapestry of both rhythmic & ambient sound, music simultaneously primeval & avant-garde.

Nadja is a duo of Aidan Baker & Leah Buckareff alternately based in Toronto & Berlin. The duo makes music that encompasses experimental/drone, ambient, industrail, & doom metal. Originally formed by Baker in 2003 as a solo project, Buckareff joined in 2005 to bring the project out of the studio & into a live setting. They have since released numerous albums on such labels as Essence Music, Hydrahead Records, & their own label, Broken Spine Productions.


B/B/S/, formed in 2012 in Berlin, Germany, is a trio of Aidan Baker (CA - Nadja, Whisper Room, ARC) on guitar, Andrea Belfi (IT - David Grubbs, Hobocombo, Il Sogno del Marinaio) on drums/electronics, and Erik Skodvin (NO - Svarte Greiner, Deaf Center) on guitar. The group makes improvisational music, combining abstract melodies and experimental drone textures. Their debut album Brick Mask was released in 2013 and their second full-length album Palace was released in 2016, both on Miasmah Records.

Hypnodrone Ensemble is Aidan Baker & Eric Quach (aka Thisquietarmy) joined by three drummers, Felipe Salazar (Caudal, Muerte En Pereira), Jérémie Mortier (Alice in the Cities, Lady Shot from a Tree), and Dave Dunnett (Man Meets Bear), to create propulsive, poly-rhythmic space rock. Hypnodrone Ensemble released their live debut in 2014 on Consouling Sounds & a studio-recorded follow up in 2015 on Calostro Recordings.

Whisper Room is a trio of Aidan Baker (guitar), Jakob Thiesen (drums/effects), & Neil Wiernik (bass/effects). The three members of Whisper Room moved in similar musical circles in Toronto & Montreal for many years, sporadically playing together &/or sharing stages, but did not actively come together as a group until late 2006. As an improvisational unit combining their disparate musical backgrounds, the trio creates music which explores the conjunction of electronic rhythms & textures with the pulsations & psychedelics of shoegaze & krautrock music. They released their debut full-length album, Birch White on Elevation Recordings and their follow-up The Cruelest Month on Consouling Sounds in 2014

Adoran is a duo consisting of Aidan Baker on drums & Dorian Williamson on bass. The project makes music combining elements of post-rock, drone, industrial, and sludge. Their self-titled debut album was released in 2012 and their second album Children of Mars is the autumn of 2015, both by Consouling Sounds.

Caudal was a trio featuring Aidan Baker on guitar, Gareth Sweeney on bass, & Felipe Salazar on drums. Baker’s multi-layered, heavily affected guitar overlays Sweeney & Salazar’s driving, propulsive rhythm section creating music equally influenced by krautrock, post-punk, and spacerock. Their debut album Forever In Another World was released in 2013 Oaken Palace Records. Their second full-length album Ascension was released by Consouling Sounds in 2014.

Infinite Light Ltd was a collaborative project between Aidan Baker, Nathan Amundson (Rivulets), and Mat Sweet (Boduf Songs). The trio released one album combining folk, ambient, and shoegaze sounds on the German label Denovali Records in 2011.


Scythling was a collaborative project between Aidan Baker and Josh Rothenburger of Bloody Panda exploring sounds conflating dark-ambient and doom metal. The group released one album, Smokefall, with various guest contributors on Aurora Borealis records in 2012.


WERL is a duo of Aidan Baker on guitar with Swedish drummer Tomas Järmyr creating improvisational music which explores noise, metal, drone, & freejazz. Their debut release came out in 2016 on Consouling Sounds and their follow-up is forthcoming September 2017 on Wolves&Vibrancy/Dio Drone Records.

Aidan Baker's "Element (PWYC)", consists of five 1990's composed pieces, finally released in 2000 as his first release. Experimental to the top, reminds me sometimes of Fred Frith's deconstructions, although Mr, Baker is less preoccupied of being strictly un-musical and of course incisively taking full advantage of over- electrifying his efforts through his electric guitar's sound proclivity towards noise and beyond. Therefore, expect ambiental distortions couterpointed by raw but bittersweet melody lines , in an early and inspired first release and what at that moment may have sounded like breaking free of the chains of traditional electric-guitar schools and focusing on inventing, the same as Mr, Frith, a self-taught and own, new guitar idiom.

Toronto guitarist Aidan Baker released Element, his first CD, in June 2000 as a CD-R packaged without a booklet. It contains five solo electric guitar pieces recorded at various locations between 1997 and 2000. Baker makes extensive use of electronics, especially reverb, backward effects, and looping, creating ambient soundscapes that develop very slowly. On the three "Element" tracks, the guitar is played with drumsticks, scissors, and bows. Baker reverts to more traditional playing on the two "Elemental" tracks. No notes, only atmospheres -- and good ones. One can completely forget that the only instrument used is a guitar; these could be pure electronic pieces. Of course this means the material remains rather static, but the self-taught guitarist is not here to show his chops. What he shows instead is his flair for sound textures. Another quality is his aptitude to not overcrowd a soundscape; the second "Elemental" track is a rather well executed example of this. The sound quality is not perfect -- there is some hiss in the background on a few tracks -- but good enough not to distract. Interesting for those who seek some relaxation music that doesn't sound new agey. Fans of Robert Fripp's soundscapes should investigate further.

Aidan Baker has been quite prolific in 2002. I Fall Into You, a CD-R released by Public Eyesore, falls into the "good" pile. It consists of dark guitar soundscapes accompanied by poems. Baker, who also fronts a career as a writer, came up with powerful lyrics on the topic of love as addiction/virus/dependence/transformation. The diptych "I Fall Into You/& Replicate" becomes the leitmotif of the album and mirrors with its implications the dark eroticism of the ambient soundscapes. Baker plays guitar (electric and acoustic), bass, and loops, creating lush moods that slowly change in terms of hues and feelings. Naomi Okabe recites with him, incarnating the reciprocal of the poems. "Lapse" and "Lethe," both seven minutes in duration, work as the walk-in/walk-off pair. The second reuses the soft synth chords and beatbox track of the first in reverse, giving the track a mutated feel completely attuned to the topic. "Lysis" (25 minutes) and "Symbiosis" (ten minutes) present most of the argument, both lyric- and music-wise. There Baker hits a peak as a sound designer/collagist. The pieces run deep and captivate, much more than the improvised Letters. Baker struck a balance between word and sound, plus this album benefits from better production values and a solid concept. Recommended.

Released as a CDR by the Omaha-based Foreign Lands label, Eye of Day shows once more how quickly guitarist Aidan Baker has matured into a first-rate experimental ambient improviser. This one is completely instrumental; Letters and I Fall into You, his previous solo efforts, also featured his poetry. Equipped with an electric guitar, an acoustic guitar, a bass, and an array of loops and effects, Baker summons to life droning beasts that will give you sweet nightmares. The album is comprised of three extended pieces. The 23-minute "Glauz Dnya" begins with a lot of tape hiss and the listener is left to decide whether it is intentional or not. Let's hope it is, but that amateurish impression dissipates quickly as we get sucked into the maelstrom of spinning guitar feedback. Time flies as the piece hypnotically changes its shape while remaining surprisingly the same. "Stehotvorenye Dlya Solntsa" (ten minutes) is downright ambient, lulling you to sleep while it hovers delicately in mid-air. But the highlight is "Pesnya Dlya Leah" (17 minutes), where Baker builds a beautiful soundscape of e-bowed notes, pedal-volume chords, noisy drones, and chiming sounds. Eye of Day may not be as impressive (or personal) as I Fall into You, but it still strikes the imagination and takes the listener on a satisfying aural journey somewhat reminiscent of vintage Maeror Tri.

After a period of gradual expansion on his sound (adding poetry recitation, female voices, string instruments, etc.), Aidan Baker released in 2004 a number of limited-edition full-lengths and EPs featuring solely his multi-tracked electric guitar drones. An Intricate Course of Deception is thus an all-instrumental, all-guitar affair. It is also the first pressed CD released by the Montreal micro-label .angle.rec. Baker's discography is getting crowded, but most of his albums came out in very limited editions or on very low-profile labels, so chances are that the ones you manage to locate won't seem too repetitive. Yet, An Intricate Course of Deception represents the core of Baker's art. It contains four extended tracks consisting of slowly evolving, thick multi-layered guitar drones ranging from the shyly peaceful to the disturbingly dark. In fact, on this particular album, Baker dives deeper into scary, psyched-out guitar effects, especially in the second half of "Thread/Bare" and in "Gossamer," one of his best instrumental drones to this day. The four pieces are presented in decreasing order of duration (25, 19, 8 and 8 minutes), a simple yet effective way of respecting the listener's attention span and effort. The first and longest piece, "Interweaver" feels overlong, but it is also the most suitable track for meditation or contemplation. "Thread/Bare" and "Gossamer" are more tortured, even raucous at times, hinting at the harshest moments in Troum's music or even the clinical, oppressive sound of Richard Pinhas (in the last two minutes of "Gossamer"). "Weft" comes back to gentler textures and is dominated by delicate manipulations on a prepared guitar. Baker's music is more singular and personal when he adds his poetry or other instruments to the mix, but An Intricate Course of Deception still makes a fine listen and will probably appeal more to fans of dark drone music than Eye of Day or I Fall Into You.

 Hello, it took more time then expected, but despite Trump kicking and screaming and bleeting non sense, his time in the oval office is over, despite getting more votes then 4 years ago, 70 million hicks and religious nutters decided that me first is that unique selling point Trump spouts they completely support (and most orf these people dare to call themselves Christians). Anyway Biden got 4 million more votes and this time spread a little better. The US isn't a real democracy, it has a 18th century constitution with a totally skewed division of power and obviously those enjoying this easy powerbase in the thinly populated states are the socalled Republicans who feel threatened by diversity and new ideas and the inevitable violent end of their selfish reign, alas these bullies have convinced themselves they have the godgiven right to tell you what to do yes        like the Taliban, expect terror in the US the coming decade and Trump will go to jail.



Today's Artists had a partnership that produced some of the most unimaginably wonderful, melodic rock-pop and unabashed blue-eyed soul music it was the '70s and '80s fortune to experience. They may be thought of today as nerdy and radio-friendly, baby boomer, mullet head icons, but their strongly crafted songwriting talent, tight musicianship and Daryl's sweet and powerful vocals are a true listening joy.

From their first hit in 1974 through their heyday in the '80s, Daryl Hall and John Oates' smooth, catchy take on Philly soul brought them enormous commercial success -- including six number one singles and six platinum albums. Hall & Oates' music was remarkably well constructed and produced; at their best, their songs were filled with strong hooks and melodies that adhered to soul traditions without being a slave to them, incorporating elements of new wave and hard rock.
Daryl Hall began performing professionally while he was a student at Temple University. In 1966, he recorded a single with Kenny Gamble and the Romeos; the group featured Gamble, Leon Huff, and Thom Bell, who would all become the architects of Philly soul. During this time, Hall frequently appeared on sessions for Gamble and Huff. In 1967, Hall met John Oates, a fellow Temple University student. Oates was leading his own soul band at the time. The two students realized they had similar tastes and began performing together in an array of R&B and doo wop groups. By 1968, the duo had parted ways, as Oates transferred schools and Hall formed the soft rock band Gulliver; the group released one album on Elektra in the late '60s before disbanding.


After Gulliver's breakup, Hall concentrated on session work again, appearing as a backup vocalist for the Stylistics, the Delfonics, and the Intruders, among others. Oates returned to Philadelphia in 1969, and he and Hall began writing folk-oriented songs and performing together. Eventually they came to the attention of Tommy Mottola, who quickly became their manager, securing the duo a contract with Atlantic Records. On their first records -- Whole Oates (1972), Abandoned Luncheonette (1973), War Babies (1974) -- the duo were establishing their sound, working with producers like Arif Mardin and Todd Rundgren and removing much of their folk influences. At the beginning of 1974, the duo relocated from Philadelphia to New York. During this period, they only managed one hit -- the number 60 "She's Gone" in the spring of 1974.

After they moved to RCA in 1975, the duo landed on its successful mixture of soul, pop, and rock, scoring a Top Ten single with "Sara Smile." The success of "Sara Smile" prompted the re-release of "She's Gone," which rocketed into the Top Ten as well. Released in the summer of 1976, Bigger than the Both of Us was only moderately successful upon its release. The record took off in early 1977, when "Rich Girl" became the duo's first number one single.


Although they had several minor hits between 1977 and 1980, the albums Hall & Oates released at the end of the decade were not as successful as their mid-'70s records. Nevertheless, they were more adventurous, incorporating more rock elements into their blue-eyed soul. The combination would finally pay off in late 1980, when the duo released the self-produced Voices, the album that marked the beginning of Hall & Oates' greatest commercial and artistic success. The first single from Voices, a cover of the Righteous Brothers' "You've Lost That Lovin' Feeling," reached number 12, yet it was the second single, "Kiss on My List" that confirmed their commercial potential by becoming the duo's second number one single; its follow-up, "You Make My Dreams" hit number five. They quickly released Private Eyes in the summer of 1981; the record featured two number one hits, "Private Eyes" and "I Can't Go for That (No Can Do)," as well as the Top Ten hit "Did It in a Minute." "I Can't Go for That (No Can Do)" also spent a week at the top of the R&B charts -- a rare accomplishment for a white act. H20 followed in 1982 and it proved more successful than their two previous albums, selling over two million copies and launching their biggest hit single, "Maneater," as well as the Top Ten hits "One on One" and "Family Man." The following year, the duo released a greatest-hits compilation, Rock 'N Soul, Pt. 1, that featured two new Top Ten hits -- the number two "Say It Isn't So" and "Adult Education."


In April of 1984, the Recording Industry Association of America announced that Hall & Oates had surpassed the Everly Brothers as the most successful duo in rock history, earning a total of 19 gold and platinum awards. Released in October of 1984, Big Bam Boom expanded their number of gold and platinum awards, selling over two million copies and launching four Top 40 singles, including the number one "Out of Touch." Following their contract-fulfilling gold album Live at the Apollo with David Ruffin & Eddie Kendrick, Hall & Oates went on hiatus. After the lukewarm reception for Daryl Hall's 1986 solo album, Three Hearts in the Happy Ending Machine, the duo regrouped to release 1988's Ooh Yeah!, their first record for Arista. The first single, "Everything Your Heart Desires," went to number three and helped propel the album to platinum status.


However, none of the album's other singles broke the Top 20, indicating that their era of chart dominance had ended. Change of Season, released in 1990, confirmed that fact. Although the record went gold, it featured only one Top 40 hit -- the number 11 single "So Close." The duo mounted a comeback in 1997 with Marigold Sky, but it was only partially successful; far better was 2003's Do It for Love and the following year's soul covers record Our Kind of Soul.


The issuing of "greatest-hits" albums reached a fever pitch during the 2000s, with no fewer than 15 different collections seeing the light by 2008. Live records proliferated as well, with the A&E Live by Request release Live in Concert hitting stores in 2003, a reissue of their Ecstasy on the Edge 1979 concert (titled simply In Concert this time around) in 2006, and the Live at the Troubadour two-CD/one-DVD set in 2008. As far as proper studio albums go, the 2000s were lean, with only three releases -- the aforementioned Do It for Love and Our Kind of Soul, topped off by Home for Christmas in 2006. A career-spanning box set appeared in 2009, titled Do What You Want, Be What You Are: The Music of Daryl Hall and John Oates.


During the 2010s, the duo were very active, both together and separately. Several Hall & Oates tours were mounted, and they performed together on American Idol and The Voice. In 2011, Hall released his fifth solo album, Laughing Down Crying, on Verve Forecast, and that same year Oates released a blues tribute album titled Mississippi Mile. Three years later, Oates drafted contemporary pop stars including Ryan Tedder and Hot Chelle Rae for Good Road to Follow. Also in 2014, the duo were inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame.

Arriving just at the end of Hall & Oates' phenomenal streak of success in the early '80s, 3 Hearts in the Happy Ending Machine, Daryl Hall's second solo album, was viewed as the first overture in a solo career but, in retrospect, its kinship with his first solo effort, 1980's Sacred Songs, is apparent. There is some indication that Hall had to make, or wanted to make, some concessions to bring it onto the charts -- how could he not, he was one of the most popular musicians of his era -- but that's not particularly evident on the tremendous lead single, "Dreamtime," a swirling slice of arty new wave psychedelia that stands in direct contrast to anything Hall & Oates sent into the Top Ten -- it might have belonged on Sacred Songs or X-Static, but it could only have been cut in the mid-'80s when Hall had the freedom to make a record like this. And this is a result of an artist who is given the freedom to make close to the record that he wants, with a few commercial concessions, plus a desire to make a modern record. That does mean 3 Hearts is a bit tied to the time, particularly in its production with its clean synths and cavernous drum machines, but that's not necessarily a bad thing since it's primarily of interest as a portrait of where Hall was in 1986. He's not as insistently melodic as he is with Oates, nor is he as experimental as he was on Sacred Songs, and that does mean that 3 Hearts falls in a middle ground that's a bit neither here nor there. And that means it's not particularly cohesive, but it does have its moments, the brightest of which is "Dreamtime," one of his greatest achievements. There are other songs here that aren't quite as good, but it does take a bit of searching to find them, particularly because some of the cuts are either failed experiments or just fall flat. But those moments that do work illustrate that Hall had ambitions that couldn't fit Hall & Oates, and needed an outlet like this, even if he couldn't quite pull it all together all the time.

 "Ooh Yeah!" picks off where Big Bamm Boom left off in 1984 and kicks off with one of the best songs I've ever heard from them.  I'm surprised the song wasn't a #1 hit.  With beautiful harmonies and catchy lyrics, and sound "Downtown Life" is easily a #1 in my book!  The next song was the biggest hit on the album: "Everything Your Heart Desires".  Another good song but not quite as good as "Downtown Life".  "EYHD" probably hit the middle of the top 10 I don't remember but it was another hit.  "I'm in Pieces", "Missed Opportunity", "Soul Love", "Real Love", and "Keep on Pushin' Love are all well done being "Missed Opportunity" my favorite out of those five.  "Rocket to God" and "Talking All Night" are great songs with some excellent background music!!!  "Missed Opportunity" was released as a single and it was on the charts but I'm not sure of where it charted.  In several ways this album may remind you of Big Bamm Boom.  "Downtown Life" has an "Out of Touch" sound to it and and the songs and rhythms can be compared as some of the best I've heard.  It took a few listens to realize just how good the album was and I recommend it to all music lovers and Hall and Oates fans.  Because it is another must have in my opinion.  I'm listening to "Missed Opportunity" right now!  Yep!  You guessed it!  "Ooh Yeah!" is spinning in that CD player right now!  In the Big Bamm Boom sense "Missed Opportunity" is sort of like "Method of Modern Love" in its sound.  Anyway this album defines "Rock n' Soul" as Hall and Oates' best album since Big Bamm Boom that I've heard.  Again A MUST HAVE!!!  Check your local pawn shops.  I found 3 copies of it at our local pawn shop!!!  So despite one slight place in "Missed Opportunity" where it skips for one quick second it works fine!   Hope I don't scratch it any more after playing it so much!!!

You can sort of tell that it was the end of an era when this came out,it was the start of a new decade and Hall & Oates were old news and had stopped having big hits by this time,they needed time off from each other I guess by this time, which to me says it all in their own song "Starting All Over Again",yes I know it's probably about two lovers who have fallen out but if you consider that they went on a 7 years sabbatical after this and other songs on here carry on the hidden meaning of the duo going onto solo work.

Take "Sometimes a Mind Changes" or "Change of Season" "Give It Up(old Habits) well I think so anyway.

Anyway this is a great record Daryl sounds great on here some of the duo's best work is on here "So Close" "Starting All Over Again" open up the record great,yes it does sag a little in the middle but overall it's a decent record,it's not one that I'm going to keep playing for weeks on end or even in my top 100 records but whenever I do get round to a listen I thoroughly enjoy it,which is what music is all about right?

This is Daryl Hall's very best solo album and there are certain moments when it's even better than some of his work with John Oates. "Soul Alone" is like the title suggests-all about soul. When I first got my hands on this album I couldn't believe that white guy has so much "soul" in his voice. When most of R&B artists at that time were exploring New Jack Swing style Daryl Hall went for classic, Philly sound of the 70's and gave it a bit of early 90's spin for good measure, creating one of the better soul albums of the decade. After just one listen I was amazed by the strength of this material, which at times recalls Barry White's and Teddy Pendergrass' legendary style. But Hall doesn't imitate them, he does it in his own, beautiful way. "Power of Seduction", "I'm In A Philly Mood" or "Borderline" are R&B, top notch numbers, better than most of Top 40 at that time-deliciously produced and sung, bringing back the passion to the robotic soul of the early 90's. This album should have given Daryl Hall a Grammy or maybe a few. It's classic, even though only few know about it.

Hello, there's a vote coming up anyone daring to not vote for Trump is deemed a traitor to Trumps dream to shape the US in his image, clearly Russia, China loved to see the US run by a vain half wit, admittedly it will run havoc to China's long time plans to become the # 1 economy in the world, instead of 2050 it will be 2025, but let's face president for life Pi  will not complain that the best layed plans were too pessimistic. In fact they can't loose if Biden wins Trump will go ballistic and whip up his support to prove might is right and intimidate those sissy democrates into submission, expect civil war....chaos. But for tonight keep that illusion alive that selfish people have some common sense left.....



Here at Rho-xs visitor numbers have been stable but i did notice a big rise in re-up requests which points to my visitors spending more time at Rho-Xs (glad to be at service). Alas over the years i've lost access to a number of disks, specially the loss of my Aetix and Roots collection hinders my capability to re-up. Obviously the torrent world offers a solution, but this scene is dynamic and suffers the same fate as my posts , the hosts delete the file when demand has dropped, in the torrent world this even worse. Unfortunately this means whilst bigger names get revived the more obscure tend to completely disappear, a fate that is suffered by roots artists as an example Salif Keita a relative big name is nowhere to be found in flac these days (just one album) when a few years ago there were many titles to be had. Same goes for many a reggae artist and even in Aetix the choice of what is on offer is diminishing day by day. I'm doing my best to fulfill requests but it's difficult and in the future i will request you my visitor to give back the odd title that you downloaded via Rho-xs and repost it here.


14 correct requests for this week , 2 too early,  2  double, 1 very confused=people requesting at the wrong place, whatever another batch of 53re-ups (16.3 gig)


These days i'm making an effort to re-up, it will satisfy a smaller number of people which means its likely the update will  expire relatively quickly again as its interest that keeps it live. Nevertheless here's your chance ... asks for re-up in the comments section at the page where the expired link resides, or it will be discarded by me. ....requests are satisfied on a first come first go basis. ...updates will be posted here remember to request from the page where the link died! To keep re-ups interesting to my regular visitors i will only re-up files that are at least 12 months old (the older the better as far as i am concerned), and please check the previous update request if it's less then a year old i won't re-up either.

Looka here , requests fulfilled up to October 31th... N'Joy

RhoDeo 2044 Expanse 15

Hello, so the Vuelta had a short stage that ended in an extreme ascend, as it happens i watched the final 3 km live..it took forever. A slow motion chase up the mountain, the strongest riders were there, ex equo leader Roglic lost time and thus the red jersey to Carapaz, but his jump didn't make it to the end as he was overtaken by Carthy and he came in 4th 10 sec ahead of Roglic, who i suspect is happy with that, as he's certain he'll get plenty of time back at the upcoming 33km time trial. Over in Italy at the third F1 this year it was still no finish for Verstappen as his tire exploded, this after once again a super race chasing down Bottas, admittedly no longer in the lead, after Hamilton got a "free' tirechange during a virtual safety car, yes the # uno in the best car really needed that. Anyway for the 7th consecutive time Mercedes got the constructors title as main competitor, Red Bull got zero points as their 2nd driver Albon seems to have lost the plot after being totally outclassed again and again by Max Verstappen.



Here today, naturally my mission of trying to breakthough the wall of nonsense build by the supposed smartest men on the planet is continuing as chinks start to appear, their arrogant stupidity set us back decades if not more, electro-magnetics is clean energy and would have delivered us not only flying cars, but flying saucers aswell and who knows a pathway into other dimensions..Meanwhile The Expanse's Calibans War continues today.

The Universe behaves according to the laws of electrodynamics.

The prevailing opinion about “planetary” nebulae usually involves gases and dust “blowing” through them, created by “shock waves” from exploding stars. In many cases, a nebula is described as a “star factory,” because X-ray radiation, or extreme ultraviolet, are thought to mean that nuclear fusion reactions are occurring.

In an Electric Universe, plasma, not hot gas, flows through space. The physics of electricity applies to nebulae, not the kinetic energy of wind. Within a planetary nebula are one or more plasma sheaths, or “double layers,” that act like capacitors, alternately storing and releasing electric charge. Current flow increases and decreases within the sheaths inside and outside of the shell.

A neon lamp that emits light only at the excitation frequency of a specific gas is a more correct model for nebulae. Electricity passing through neon gas causes it to form a plasma and to glow a pale yellow. Other gases, such as oxygen or hydrogen, produce blue and red light, while heavier elements emit their own colors.

Plasma behavior is unfamiliar in many ways. It is often difficult to discern that plasma is completely different from a gas. Plasma’s similarities to gas are overshadowed by its failure to correspond with gas kinetics. Since more than 90% of the light frequencies from planetary nebulae are in the ionized oxygen range, they should be thought of as oxygen discharge tubes and not balls of gas.

As elementary physics teaches, charged particles in motion constitute an electric current. An electric current is accompanied by a magnetic field that wraps around the current and diminishes with the distance from it. Magnetic fields get stronger when more charged particles move in the same direction or when they move faster. Ions moving through the magnetic field are squeezed toward the axis. Plasma physicists refer to this as the “Bennett pinch.”

An electric discharge in a plasma cloud creates a double layer along its axis. Positive charge builds up on one side and negative charge on the other. A strong electric field exists between the sides, and if enough current is applied the double layer glows, otherwise it is invisible.

Double layers and current filaments also respond to the movement of interstellar electric charge in a circuit that threads through the galaxy. They are mostly dark mode phenomena because of their low current density, but the magnetic fields they produce are apparent and detectable in the Bennett pinches that arise.

These ideas are unfamiliar to astronomers—they seldom think about electric charges. They think of moving charges from the Sun as a “solar wind” instead of an electric current. They think of charged particles impacting a planet or moon as a “rain” instead of an electrical discharge. They think of charged particles moving along a magnetic field as a “jet” instead of a field-aligned Birkeland current. They think of abrupt changes in the density and speed of charged particles as a “shock wave” instead of a double layer that can even explode.

As astronomer Amy Acheson wrote:

“It’s been over 300 years since Newton encountered his apple, and his conception of gravity, now modified by Einstein and supplemented with similar mechanical theories of solids, liquids and gasses, has become the popular vision of space—an almost-empty universe of self-contained bodies. And now it’s been 100 years since Birkeland encountered his aurora, and his conception of electric currents in space, developed by such pioneers as Irving Langmuir and Hannes Alfven, has been a footnote to standard theory, rarely called upon except to explain the occasional curiosity in space.”

Previously, in the first program of this two-part presentation, our guest Andrew Hall began his seventh part of "Eye of the Storm" – a series devoted to exploring some of the most dramatic and puzzling geological features on planet Earth.

In second program of his visual essay for "Eye of the Storm" — Episode 7, Andy goes into detailed examination of the lifelike emanations of electrified plasma which tell us much about mysterious dendritic and filamentary geological patterns. Nor is it coincidental that plasma filaments find a stunning analog in a global mythical archetype: the sinuous form and fiery breath of the cosmic dragon.

The Expanse is a series of science fiction novels (and related novellas and short stories) by James S. A. Corey, the joint pen name of authors Daniel Abraham and Ty Franck. The first novel, Leviathan Wakes, was nominated for the Hugo Award for Best Novel in 2012. The series as a whole was nominated for the Best Series Hugo Award in 2017.

As of 2019, The Expanse is made up of eight novels and eight shorter works - three short stories and five novellas. At least nine novels were planned, as well as two more novellas. The series was adapted for television by the Syfy Network, also under the title of The Expanse, then they dropped the ball despite the succes of the series, i suspect the whole thing got too serious (expensive) so once again Syfy network proved they can't handle success. Anyway fans were outraged and got Amazon Prime to pick it up for a fourth and fifth series and considering the mountain of money Jeff Bezos sits on i suspect several more as long as the fans keep cheering.

The Expanse is set in a future in which humanity has colonized much of the Solar System, but does not have interstellar travel. In the asteroid belt and beyond, tensions are rising between Earth's United Nations, Mars, and the outer planets.

The series initially takes place in the Solar System, using many real locations such as Ceres and Eros in the asteroid belt, several moons of Jupiter, with Ganymede and Europa the most developed, and small science bases as far out as Phoebe around Saturn and Titania around Uranus, as well as well-established domed settlements on Mars and the Moon.

As the series progresses, humanity gains access to thousands of new worlds by use of the ring, an artificially sustained Einstein-Rosen bridge or wormhole, created by a long dead alien race. The ring in our solar system is two AU from the orbit of Uranus, and passing through it leads to a hub of starless space approximately one million kilometers across, with more than 1,300 other rings, each with a star system on the other side. In the center of the hub, which is also referred to as the "slow zone", an alien space station controls the gates and can also set instantaneous speed limits on objects inside of the hub as a means of defense.


The story is told through multiple main point-of-view characters. There are two POV characters in the first book and four in books 2 through 5. In the sixth and seventh books, the number of POV characters increases, with several characters having only one or two chapters. Tiamat's Wrath returns to a more limited number with five. Every book also begins and ends with a prologue and epilogue told from a unique character's perspective.

Caliban's War
Eighteen months after the events of Leviathan Wakes, the solar system is in a precarious balance while they watch unknowable events unfold on the planet Venus. Earth and Mars are still poised for battle, and someone didn't recognize the warning that the Eros Incident held for humanity.

Major character arcs

James Holden is the captain of the salvaged Martian warship Rocinante. He and his crew have worked for the Outer Planets Alliance for 18 months since what’s become known as the Eros Incident, and the job just doesn’t feel right. While assisting a botanist in the search for his daughter, Holden comes across signs that people are still trying to tame the protomolecule, and the threat comes very close to home. Breaking his OPA ties, he becomes an ever-more-important piece in the four-way chess game for who will run the solar system.

Chrisjen Avasarala is a high-ranking UN official who knows how to get things done. Plugged in to all sources of information, she’s simultaneously monitoring events on Earth, Mars, Ganymede and Venus, though the last one is the toughest to predict what will happen next. Seeing shifts coming but not able to completely grasp what they mean, she accepts a post that takes her away from the action knowing she is playing her expected part until it is time to do the unexpected. Then, she meets James Holden for the first time aboard his ship, trying to defuse a solar-system-wide war.

Bobbie Draper is a Martian Marine stationed on Ganymede, one of Jupiter’s largest moons and known as the breadbasket of the outer planets. After she witnesses the brutal defeat and destruction of military forces on both sides of a conflict by a third party, she is taken to Earth to participate in peace talks, but doesn’t follow the party line and gets in trouble with her leaders. Now helping Chrisjen Avasarala, she must quickly adapt to interplanetary politics and office intrigue. Later moving her duties to space, her military training comes in handy once again.

Praxidike Meng is a botanist working on Ganymede when tensions erupt. His daughter is lost in the chaos, and he finds information that she was actually taken from her daycare before the action. He tries to find her in the decaying conditions of his home, but latches on to James Holden as a source of hope. Eventually becoming the face of the crisis at Ganymede, his efforts to find his daughter’s abductors have interstellar ramifications.

Plot summary

On Ganymede, Mei Meng is kidnapped from her preschool by her doctor. Several hours later, Earth and Martian space marines are attacked and effortlessly killed by a super soldier, with Bobbie Draper, a Martian marine, the only survivor. Earth and Mars begin a shooting war which throws Ganymede into chaos. In the aftermath, Mei's father Praxidike Meng fruitlessly searches for his daughter in the midst of the societal breakdown in the Ganymede colony.

Several months later, the crew of the Rocinante are tasked with delivering emergency aid to Ganymede. Meng spots James Holden during a food riot and asks the crew to help find his daughter. They agree and are able to trace her kidnappers to unused tunnels on the moon. Holden, Meng, and ship mechanic Amos Burton discover a secret lab. In the midst of a shootout with lab security, they inadvertently release another super soldier who kills some of the lab personnel. In the wake of the battle, the crew find remnants of the protomolecule and the corpse of Mei's friend, who was being treated by Mei's doctor for immunodeficiency. The crew rush to escape the station as more chaos erupts around them, and are able to make it back aboard the Rocinante.

Draper is brought to the peace talks between Earth and Mars occurring on Earth, giving testimony regarding the super soldier attack on Ganymede. She violates diplomatic protocol and is dismissed by the Martian delegation, but is then hired by Chrisjen Avasarala, who is leading the UN negotiations. Draper discovers that Avasarala's assistant is betraying her, leading Avasarala to conclude that her UN superiors are trying to get rid of her, from which she deduces that a group within the UN is responsible for the super soldier attack. Avasarala allows Draper to be brought along as her bodyguard on a slow-moving yacht headed to Ganymede on an ostensible relief mission.

On their way to Tycho station, the Rocinante crew discovers a super soldier stowed away in their cargo hold. They are able to lure out the creature using radioactive bait before vaporizing it with the ship's exhaust. The Rocinante is damaged during the encounter, but the crew learn more about the super soldiers. Holden confronts Fred Johnson, who he believes controls the only other sample of the protomolecule. Johnson denies involvement with the Ganymede incident and fires Holden's crew. They help Meng release a video asking for help searching for Mei, raising enough money to continue the search. Upon receiving information about Mei's doctor, Meng deduces that the super soldiers are being created on a base on Io. With the Rocinante repaired, they set out to recover Mei.

On board the yacht, Avasarala sees Meng's video appeal and learns that a UN detachment is heading to intercept the Rocinante. The crew of the yacht prevent her from warning Holden, claiming that their communication systems are broken. When they refuse her demands to get the yacht repaired, Avasarala has Draper take control of the vessel. Avasarala sends a warning to Holden, and she and Draper board a racing pinnace to rendezvous with the Rocinante. After meeting Holden's crew, Avasarala and Draper share notes of the super soldiers. Realizing that they are several days away from being destroyed by the UN detachment, Avasarala convinces the crew to let her send this information to her contacts within the UN to prevent an all-out war.

Draper and Avasarala convince the Martian fleet to help protect the Rocinante. This culminates in a space battle between the UN detachment, the Martian forces, and a second UN fleet loyal to Avasarala. With the UN Secretary General recalling the admiral hostile to the Rocinante, the battle ends in victory for the Martians and Avasarala's faction. The crew lands on Io, where Amos and Meng rescue Mei along with other immunodeficient children. Draper kills a super soldier using knowledge about its capabilities. The crew heads back to Luna, where the people responsible for the super soldier project are brought to justice. Avasarala is promoted, Meng is hired to oversee efforts to restore Ganymede, Draper returns to Mars, and the Rocinante takes a contract escorting a supply ship. Throughout the story, the solar system had been watching changes on Venus, which culminate with the launch of something unknown as the book ends.

 Richard Bone
(born February 3, 1952 - Atlanta, GA)

     Interest in creating music began very early in Richard's life. By his early teens he was already creating experimental sound compositions. Several years later he discovered electronic music and the album The United States of America where he first heard cutting edge electronics used in a rock format. He was greatly influenced by that LP and the solo works of Joseph Byrd, which eventually led him to start creating music using primitive synthesizers. Formal training in the arts began in the seventies when he studied drama for four years at the New York Academy of Theatrical Arts. His passion for sound design led him to create soundtracks and scores for several off-Broadway companies working in experimental theater. His atmospheric musical soundscapes were used by the New York Conservatory in several of their plays and videos.

     Richard's first official foray into the music business was with a demo that was produced by Patti Smith's legendary guitarist, Lenny Kaye. Driving forces behind the demo were Lenny and Danny Fields, both well known in the rock field. For the next few years Richard performed at locations along the East Coast while continuing with his theater studies. His first American single was the 45-rpm Pirate the Islands/Headlines Have It released with his band Bone on his own Rumble Records in 1979. The B-side Headlines went on to be covered by the Dutch band Urban Heroes as their first worldwide single. Their second LP also included another song written by Richard entitled When Worlds Collide that would have been one of four tracks featured on the double 45 called Nobody Discos on Pluto. However, that follow up was never released. His next releases were two abstract works, Life in Video City and Quiz Party, both released on very limited cassette by the Los Angeles based Eurock label.

     In 1981 he joined the legendary band Shox Lumania whose Live at the Peppermint Lounge became one of the first releases on the visionary RIOR label. Shox Lumania featured Stephanie Kaye (Lenny Kaye's wife), Anton Sanko (who went on to record Solitude Standing with Suzanne Vega) and Richard on synthesizers. They were a very theatrical band with as much emphasis on choreography and costume as music. It was the best of both worlds for Richard. The darlings of NYC, it was not uncommon to find everyone from Klaus Nomi, Souixie Souix to David Bowie & Devo in their dressing rooms.

     During that same time period Richard recorded and released a solo 7" called Digital Days/Alien Girl on his own Rumble Records that was quickly picked up by Survival Records in the UK. While with Survival Records he released two LPs - Brave Tales and Exspectacle; four EPs - The Beat is Elite, Joy of Radiation, The Real Swing, Living in Partytown; two 45s - Digital Days/Alien Girl and Joy/Do Angels Dance; and singles for the Mind & Matter, Dance Report and Art of Survival compilation. His single of Joy... reached #1 on the dance charts in Hong Kong. From 1981 to 1983 he also produced the 7" Jolene/Who's on Top? for the band Rubber Rodeo as well as contributing musically on two of their other releases. In 1983 Richard's video for his single "Alien Girl" was included on Danspak, an experimental Sony video. In 1984 he was asked to contribute to the double cassette called Film Noir - American/European Style released on Ding Dong Records. His track was entitled "Far From Yesterday (parts 1&2)" on that limited edition compilation cassette. By this time Richard was firmly placed in the British alternative charts and was even referred to as the American version of Howard Jones by the British press.

     As Survival Records continued to move in a dance oriented direction, Richard began to find his musical interests shifting away from the 80's New Wave club scene so on his own he recorded several experimental works. Emerging Melodies (Rumble Records) was the soundtrack to a video art project that aired on award-winning cable and broadcast television in America (USA Cable & Co-Directions in NYC). "Alternate Music for the Hindenberg Lounge" was included on the American Music Compilation released by the Eurock label in 1982. That same year Richard also recorded an experimental concept album called Grey Hideaway that was never released. One track from that work however, was used in 1986 on an early AIDS awareness music video also entitled "Grey Hideaway" - part of a longer video called "Chance of a Lifetime". Around the mid to late 80's Survival Records folded and Richard decided to take a break from music for a few years.

     In 1991 Richard started his own label, Quirkworks Laboratory Discs, allowing him the freedom to create music of a more experimental nature and remain in control of his musical direction. His first two releases, Quirkwork in 1993 and X Considers Y  in 1994, were somewhat similar to the synth-pop style of his Survival days and were also the last full-length recordings that featured Richard's vocal work. The release of the instrumental Ambiento in 1994 introduced a new ambient direction for Richard's music.

     Next came Vox Orbita in 1995, an upbeat ambient work full of samples, rhythms and a bit of a Laurie Anderson influence. The Grace Pro disc Media Works followed featuring six tracks of Richard's; two from Vox Orbita, two from Ambiento and two tracks that were previously unreleased - "Mi Mundo" and "The Deluxe Set". Richard also contributed tracks in 1995 on two benefit CD's - "Etherea Arriving" on the Maine Vocals compilation and "Overstated Papers" (Richard's very last vocal work) on the Anon compilation. That same year he also contributed tracks on two Alternative Press Samplers; #5 contained "X Considers Y" from X Considers Y and an alternate mix of "El Gato Negro" from Vox Orbita . Sampler #7 contained "Vox 9" from Vox Orbita and the previously unreleased "Illicit Behavior".

     By the time his next disc The Eternal Now was released in 1996, Richard had decided to pursue instrumental music exclusively. The Eternal Now , containing the two separate suites "Zone" and "The Millennium Pages", was recorded only after sunset, by candlelight. His most personal recording, the creation of The Eternal Now was the beginning of Richard's journey into the mystic. While recording The Eternal Now , he simultaneously recorded another CD, Metaphysic Mambo - an upbeat work similar in style to Ambiento and Vox Orbita , released on the Reversing Recordings label. That same year "In the Shadow of Rain", a track from Vox Orbita was used on the Russian compilation Back to the Universe and an untitled track was used on the Staalplaat compilation called The Answering Machine Solution.

     His next project was to be an EP length recording of electronically structured pieces entitled Solo Cog . Although the work was completed, it was never released. In 1997 the mini-compilation A Survey of Remembered Things was released containing five tracks of Richard's and four by electronic percussionist John Orsi. The compilation entitled em:t 1197 from t:me Recording LTD was also released in 1997 and included "Vox 2.5", an alternate mix of "Vox 2" from Vox Orbita. Also that year, Headcandy Productions released their first video entitled Sidney's Psychedelic Adventure that included "Komarov's Fire" from A Survey of Remembered Things.

     In 1998 Richard released the highly acclaimed Electropica, his homage to Bossa Nova masters Antonio Carlos Jobim, Luiz Bonfa and Joao Gilberto. The rhythmic Electropica came about from a rather mystical occurrence at a record store in 1996 causing Richard to devote a year of his life to the study of 60's bossa nova and the music of Antonio Carlos Jobim in particular. Also in 1998 Richard began working with Mike Griffin at Hypnos Recordings. He recorded the track "Via Mycropia" for the first Hypnos compilation, The Other World and his next disc, the atmospheric The Spectral Ships was released on Hypnos near the end of 1998. That same year he recorded the track "Murmurio" for the Halcyon Recordings compilation Oscillations and co-produced and contributed musically to Mary Zema's Songs of Early Paradise that was released on the Quirkworks label.

     Early in 1999 Richard released the rhythmic Coxa, his follow-up to Electropica. This work however, was more influenced by the 60's jazz masters Creed Taylor, Rudy Van Gelder, Cal Tjader and Dave Pike. Later that year he released his next atmospheric disc, Ether Dome, on the Hypnos label. The compilation Distillation, featuring tracks from earlier Quirkworks releases plus two unreleased ambient works was also released in 1999 on the Halcyon Recordings label. The Electroshock compilation Electroacoustic Music V 3 was released that year as well and included a track by Richard entitled "Elusia, I Can See!"

      Ascensionism, influenced by the Ascension Schools and the beat poets, was released August 15, 2000 concluding the trilogy that began in 1998 with Electropica. Well received by fans and radio alike, Ascensionism quickly reached and held the #1 spot on the New Age Voice Top 100 charts for two months, remaining in the Top 10 for 4 consecutive months. The November 2000 issue of New Age Voice magazine included an interview with Richard as their featured artist and Ambient Visions conducted an in depth interview with Richard that was released November 30, 2000.

      Richard's next ambient project Tales from the Incantina, inspired by ancient Toltec philosophy and travels to the Mayan/Toltec ruins in Mexico was released April 3, 2001. This recording made its debut at #6 on the New Age Voice Top 100 for April 2001 airplay and remained in the Top 10 for two months. Tales from the Incantina marks the first release for INDIUM, an ambient division of Quirkworks Laboratory Discs. In May of 2001, Richard released his first D.A.M. CD, Alternate Worlds Vol. 1 which included previously unreleased tracks from Tales from the Incantina and Ascensionism as well as several other unreleased tracks exclusively at MP3.com.

      Richard's next rhythmic recording Disorient, was released March 5, 2002 on the Quirkworks label. Shortly after its release, Disorient made its debut at #1 on the New Age Voice Top 100 charts and remained there for two consecutive months. In April 2002 Richard completed the re-recording of "Joy of Radiation", a vocal track he first recorded in 1983. This track was going to be featured on a tribute site devoted to the Survival artists of the early eighties, but the project never materialized. In June of 2002 an agreement was reached between Richard and Lyra Studios making available twenty-two downloadable tracks as background music for the multiplayer online role-playing game Underlight. Richard's latest ambient CD Indium, was released by Electroshock Records on Dec. 10, 2002. In addition to several previously unreleased tracks, this CD also contains a thirty minute piece Richard included on a limited release ambient video also entitled Indium.

      Harmony with Ambience, a multi-artist compilation organized by the Japanese label Windfarm Records, was released June 1, 2003. This disc included Richard's track "Dzibana" from his CD Tales from the Incantina. On August 10, 2003 Alternate Realities was released on the Spiralight label featuring nine alternate mixes and unreleased tracks of Richard's work. This CD made the #11 position on the New Age Reporter charts for September airplay, the Backroad's Music and Wind and Wire lists of Top Recordings for 2003 and the Star's End list of significant releases of 2003 among other honors.

      Richard's next rhythmic recording was The Reality Temples that released June 30, 2004 on the Spiralight label. This disc debuted at the #6 position on the New Age Reporter Top 100 chart for August airplay and was nominated for the 2004 NAR Lifestyle Music Awards' Best Electronic Album. Orlandomaniac Music released Untold Tales  on April 15th -- a CD of nineteen previously unheard vocal demo tracks Richard recorded during his early Survival years of 1979 - 85. Other 2004 projects included a various artist compilation CD from Spiralight Recordings called Ambienism Vol. One featuring a new track by Richard entitled "Stillness Repeating" that was released March 15, 04.

      On September 20, 2005 Richard released Saiyuji, the final recording of the trilogy begun with Disorient and The Reality Temples. Saiyuji quickly climbed the New Age Reporter Top 10 charts and was nominated for the 2005 NAR Lifestyle Music Awards' Best Ambient Album.

      Richard released Vesperia (Music for Vespers at the First Congregational Church of Holliston, Massachusetts) on May 2, 2006 and a limited edition DVD entitled The Vesperia Videos shortly thereafter. His ambient recording Serene Life of Microbes was released October 17, 2006 on the AD Music label.

      In March of 2007 Richard released Via Poetica, a collaboration with poet/vocalist Lisa Indish, and Experiments '80-'82, a limited edition CD featuring selected tracks from his cassette only 1980 recordings Life in Video City and Quiz Party along with three tracks he contributed to the 1982 American Music Compilation LP. Richard also completed a recording of new material entitled Infinite Plastic Creation that released September 10, 2007 and was awarded  the 2007 NAR Lifestyle Music Awards' Best Electronic Album. Two additional recordings, Connection Failed - a collection of previously unreleased ambient tracks created as backing tracks for collaborations and Songs From The Analog Attic - a collection of unreleased vocal works recorded between 1992 and 1998, were also made available just before the end of 2007.

    Projects of 2008 included a DVD & soundtrack CD release entitled Short Waves - Brief Excursions in Surreal Video that released March 20, 2008 and an ambient recording entitled Sudden Departure that was released September 16, 2008. Sudden Departure has just been nominated the 2008 NAR Lifestyle Music Awards' Best Ambient and Best Electronic Album.

    Richard released the ambient work The Ghosts of Hanton Village on September 15, 2009. His next recording was in March 2010 when he released his first iTunes application Mind Environs and a 3-track EP of the same name. On October 19, 2010 a CD of archival tracks entitled Beleaguered Blossoms (selected artifacts 1993-2009) was released. Late October 2010 also saw the release of the Christmas album ChristmasAD - The First Snow that included two of Richard's holiday tracks.

     More recent projects have included a May 2011 release that featured remixes of selected tracks of Richard's music assembled by Daniele Baldelli & Marco Dionigi entitled Adaptors, and a July 2011 release of new material entitled XesseX.

     A collection entitled Anthology was released as a download only on March 25, 2013 and a recording of all new material, Images From A Parallel World released April 24, 2013 -- both on the AD Music label. A vinyl EP entitled Cranium Fizz became available September 2013.

     Releases for 2014 included a recording of all new matierial entitled Vertical Life that released in March, and a boxed-set of long out-of-print material from the years 1979 - 1985 entitled Vaulted Visions from Vinyl-on-Demand.

    In 2015 there were three releases: Brave Sketches - a double LP set released by Orlandomaniac Music, Obtuse Tantrums, a 7" vinyl EP from AttractiveCO, and the CD Involution Vol. 1 that was released by Quirkworks on September 23, 2015.

    Richard completed a dark ambient project entitled Nibiru (jan 2018), a CD recording on the Mega Dodo Label - Age of Falconry (july 2017), and issued a very limited-edition USB only recording entitled AERA (may, 2016).

    Most recently Richard created Empyrean Castles and A Garden of Invited Flowers in 2019. In 2020, he's already working on an excellent album.

Involution is described as the process by which the Divine manifests the Cosmos. I humbly feel as though some small part of this process was occurring in the studio. I could not help but feel that I was experiencing inspiration from an energy beyond myself. I find these theories to no longer be the purview of the new age movement. Hopefully in the not too distant future it will be a widespread understanding.
Many more than 30 songs were written in this manner over the course of less than a year. So many that I found it necessary to refer to this collection as “Vol.1” because, by the end of sessions, so much music had arrived that two volumes at least would clearly be needed! Without realizing it, I had slowly begun to be influenced by the books I was reading on Cosmic Consciousness, Quantum Theory and the non-physical realms. It seemed the deeper my meditations, the more effortless the recording sessions became. This time more than ever I felt as though I was not working alone. The melodies, choice of sounds and even the song titles and sequencing are presented just as they came to me. The experience was so far beyond ’new age’ but rather more like “old age”, a system that had been available to all since humankind first became self aware.
I know that there are those who will completely understand what I’m trying to say, while others will think I’m nut case. You’re probably both right!!! So, what’s next? UFOs? Don’t get me started!!!

Something of a veteran in electronic music circles, Richard Bone’s career-to-date has largely been enacted on his own Quirkworks label, with occasional singles and 12-inchers inching out on vinyl. Emerging now on Mega Dodo, within whose fast-expanding parameters he is both an exquisite fit and a stark surprise, Age of Falcony is (of course) wholly instrumental, and (also of course) utterly captivating, its nine melody-whipped-with-wyrd tracks poised somewhere between an electronic folk opera, and a lost-and-early Anthony Phillips album, if he’d served his apprenticeship in Popol Vuh. Of course, different ears will discern different points of comparison, and “A Shooting Star Was I” may indeed have a similar feel to something from Eno’s Another Green World.  But the album also pursues its own internal logic; though the tracks are clearly delineated, still a marvelous continuity unfolds as you track deeper into the disc, and fresh textures conjure their own sonic landscapes.  A taste of Asia here, a hint of medieval there, a cloudless sky somewhere else.  And “Urgent Curious” could not have a better title than that.

A surprising late visit to the world of the Annunaki by Richard, considering Sitchin attributed the creation of the ancient Sumerian culture to the Anunnaki, which he stated was a race of extraterrestrials from a planet beyond Neptune called Nibiru. He asserted that Sumerian mythology suggests that this hypothetical planet of Nibiru is in an elongated, 3,600-year-long elliptical orbit around the sun. Sitchin's books have sold millions of copies worldwide and have been translated into more than 25 languages. It led to Sitchin being called "arguably the most important proponent of the ancient astronaut hypothesis over the last several decades"

Seven dark ambient works for contemplation on the next step in human evolution, which is almost upon us.
