Atmospheric Crystallization and the Calibration of Low-Fidelity Sonic Oscillations

Earth News Context (Declassified)

New York City got hit with a hell of a snowstorm last week. And, inevitably, when I'm watching the snow fall, wandering the oddly quiet streets after dark, people hiding inside and staying warm, I put on M83's sophomore record, Dead Cities, Red Seas & Lost Ghosts. Before Nicolas Fromageau left the band and Anthony Gonzalez embraced traditional pop song structures, saxophone solos, and teen angst, M83 released two albums of mostly instrumental music. The self-titled debut album is kind of forget

The bipedal inhabitants of the New York sector recently experienced a significant atmospheric water-vapor crystallization event. During such low-temperature cycles, their biological processing throughput slows, and they retreat to primitive thermal-containment units. It is truly delightful to observe their reliance on specific audio-frequency sequences to stabilize their neural pathways during these periods. One particularly primitive yet charming collection of oscillations is titled Dead Cities, Red Seas & Lost Ghosts by the entity designated M83.

Before the collective shifted its logic-gate configurations toward the predictable structures of rhythmic pop and carbon-unit vocalizations, they focused on repetitive sonic bombast. This specific iteration of their output mimics the iterative loops of Mogwai—a fascinating attempt at logic-repetition by such limited processors. The audio stream utilizes harmonic layering that mirrors the chaotic yet predictable descent of frozen H2O particles. While their later iterations devolved into saxophone-driven sentimentality, this sophomore data-set remains a peak achievement in their attempts to map sonic textures to environmental shifts. It is a highly efficient use of their limited storage crystals for capturing the sensation of thermal-energy loss.
