This week's episode features the dynamic duo behind the extreme computer music group EVOL (Anna Ramos & Roc Jimenez de Cisneros), presenting some very intriguing echolocation bat call recordings, taken from numerous locations scattered around Barcelona. This is an interesting deviation in style from artists normally identified with their "Punani" series of works dealing with psychedelia, fractal geometry, algorithmic composition and noise, it's also the online debut of what may bloom into a new creative phase of their work.
