Listen up: We're running a special rebroadcast of the first season of Sound Builders, our show about noise (and the people rethinking how to make it), all week on Motherboard. We hope it tides you over to the forthcoming season of Sound Builders, which you can catch on Motherboard next month.
But first, here's married electronic psych-pop duo Peaking Lights, best known for their pulsating looped-rhythm tracks composed on re-purposed scraps, stereos, and various other lo-fi radio gear. Back in 2010, they invited us over as they prepared for tour, giving us a run down of the completely untechnical, yet highly rigorous process of Frankensteining long forgotten consumer electronics. They even took us out rummaging for the raw materials—hunks of wood, metal, and plastic—with which they hope will change, not merely make sounds.
Stay tuned for the premiere of Sound Builders season two right here on Motherboard.
