Vectors by Star Castles, released 31 December 20211. Web Wars2. Riding the Beam: I. Phosphor3. Riding the Beam: II. Vacuum4. Riding the Beam: III. Cathode5. Riding the Beam: IV. Coil6. Webwarp7. Rip Off8. Solar Quest9. Cosmic ChasmAlmost all sounds on this album originate from the Vectrex video game console. It's a strange and wonderful device that has a vector cathode ray tube, like an oscilloscope. One of the characteristic traits of the device is a slightly questionable sound circuit that picks up tons of noise from the cathode ray tube, causing a very noticeable drone.A current fad in the Vectrex community is to isolate the audio circuit from the CRT to get rid of that hum. This kind of makes me sad, both because I find the drone comforting and because a characteristic of the system is being widely eliminated. So in the fall of 2020 I conceived of an ambient noise album, akin to Lou Reed’s Metal Machine Music, but made entirely from treatments of the Vectrex hum. This is that album, or pretty close.
