Welcome to 'Transmitting to Earth'. I'm Charssun and I'll be your host. This blog and podcast is a byproduct of VoyagerRadio.com and is intended to provide the most timely information about this Internet radio station. It is also intended to be a fun and accessible electronic journal with commentary focusing on Internet radio, podcasting and webcasting issues and technologies, music, and some of my other interests. I also offer personal perspective about being an Internet radio broadcaster (and podcaster).

The Orb's Bikes & Trikes Released in the U.S.The Orb's latest creation Bicycles and Tricycles has finally been released in the U.S. I've been waiting the arrival of this release for about a year now, and after purchasing a few tracks on iTunes I can tell you it's been worth the wait. It takes me awhile before I really know whether I'm into a new release or not, but after listening to a few tracks I'm already sensing that this one is going to be a classic. Other listeners feel the same way--I have read many reviews of Bicycles and Tricycles, and several reviewers, having enjoyed the new release, have noted the Orb's "return to roots", so to speak, as well as a continuation of their experimentalism. Sound like a contradiction? Not at all--the Orb have always experimented with electronic music forms, defying rigid labeling within any established genre; even the genres they are often credited with creating, such as Ambient House. Their latest release doesn't simply rehash their old sound; it invokes some of their earlier creations and transforms them within an entirely new framework--one which includes hip hop, trance, downtempo, and other genres.
