"Y'all lookin' for strange? Well, y'all in the right place for it! The port town o' Blgihtmarsh's always been a mite peculiar after dark. Most'd point to th' gangs of talkin' rats runnin' the docks, or that we hold our communion at night-time. And sure, that's right strange if ya ain't born'n raised here. But if ya wanna see the real deal, ya need to head out near th' edge of th' swamp near midnight. That's where th' strange stuff _really_ is. That's where ya find th' mire-witches makin' offerin's and prayer up to critters so old their names're forgotten. That's where you find them lost cities and oldtowns, half-sunk in the mud, full o' gold an' old magic. An', if ya look long enough, that's where y'all find your beast, th' Parlangua. How do Old Remi know y'all're lookin' for th' Parlangua? Nah, it ain't no magic, friend. Ol' Remi jus' a fisherman what hear t'ings from time to time. I know y'all're rarin' t' go, but I warn y'all; those what go lookin' out in th' swamps, they don't usually come back- leastways not alive, anyhow." -- Dark moon over Blightmarsh, introduction

[@MrBaldsoprano]

When we discovered warp stone on Ceres the mining colony became as close to a city as you can find on the rim. Zeb was the one that first opened up that vein and the only one to walk out of the uncontrolled Mass Shift that ensued. Our corpo made him slightly less poor for his horrors. I figure he would head back to ol' Terra Firma. To our surprise, he hung up his drill and stayed. He would just play his banjo in our old vapor hole, taking mists of Hook and hardly sleeping. I asked him why, and red eyed, he said if he could find the right timbre he could bring 'em back. I thought he meant the boys in that mine, but after a year of mining the warp... I feel it too. When he plays something is... something is coming through...

[@jonathanwells223]

A peaceful village, but something is wrong. Definitely getting Innsmouth vibes from this.

[@VayaKahvi]

They say it started when the ruins were found, old structures, older than humanity according to the eggheads. There wasn't any sign that something had changed, not anything that the sensors could detect, and folks used all kinds of instruments to try and find what's what there. Lots of people went to the place, said they felt something, none could really say what though. Years would pass, eggheads trying to figure things out, folks that could hear things always wandering through, finding door the eggheads never saw. At some point though, those sensitive folks started chasing out anyone that wasn't from the colony, they got really mad at anyone from old Earth, chasing them even further, harassing them till they took off on a ship.

[@allendobbs4154]

It amazes me bluegrass isnt more popular or atleast more respected as a complicated musical art form. Hardest style of music to play in my book is Bluegrass and Jazz. Both live and thrive deep in the blood of their people and leak into the lives of those intelligent enough to hear them. Words just words.

[@deusvenenare]

The low bass hum in the background with the whispers and wails was an oddly calming addition to the banjo. The electric zappy sound effects really added to the haunted feel of this and made good brain scratchy feelings in my headphones. This is the perfect creative focus music for me and I'm so glad I found this channel!

Well, well. I'll be damned. Never thought I'd see "space" and "banjo" put together in the same sentence. Reckon I'll be havin' a good night's sleep while this'll be playin' with a pair of good ear buds. 'Preciate the music. Keep em' comin'!

The banjo on its own is fine, but there’s something on a whole other level with a banjo and a haunting, ethereal soundscape paired together. It’s the musical equivalent of a match made in heaven. I’ve developed quite a taste for this. In not so many words, more like this please.
