Tune into ABC Radio National's Sound Quality hosted by Tim Richie to hear a live in concert Masonik track. Featuring Bal Singh playing Indian instrument the Sarangi - It has three to four main playing strings and a number of sympathetic strings.  The instrument has no frets or fingerboard; the strings float in the air.  Pitch is determined by sliding the fingernail against the string rather than pressing it against a fingerboard.

Number Stations are short wave radio transmissions that are randomly broadcast around the world. Radio enthusiasts monitor & decipher these .... words, numbers, sequences .... broadcast since World War One ... yet no government admits to owning them, no radio station admits to broadcasting them & no one steps forward to even admits that they are responsible for them. What do these messages mean? Why do they exist? Why do the messages come in so many languages? Why, in this digital "internet" age, do they still transmit?
WHO IS RECEIVING THEM???
Basil Psanoudakis - textures & piano
Jason Johnston - textures
Unknown Number Station - voice
