Can someone put those music pieces from the radio together?
could be a promotion from a band and those pieces are part of an new single?

sorry for my englisch


the classic part is from a fort minor song"believe me" track 10 on there first cd but im pretty sure there just using a sample for the song could be wrong though and im not to sure about the other one sounds kinda like crystal method or the chemical brothers but again im probably wrong...


I heard that to but I think Fort Minor actually sampled that from another song.

Also, has anyone been able to make out some of the old photos?

I can make out

Field photos
1. Tractor tire
2. Muddy ruts left by tires.
3. The front of a tractor. Looks about 1930's by the front end.
4. Tilled earth?

Pond photos
1. Some kind of compartment is open. Looks like a glove or a tube coming out.
2. Cylinders in the middle. Black rubber hose and compression fitting at the top.
3. Looks like a top down view of the thing in the blueprint.
4. Boots? Tubes?

 		I couldn't view the video at the link posted, but am guessing the machine is something very much like this.
Possibly in the form of a trencher due to the split (fork-style) drive component. Unless it's biodiesel-electric or something like that, I don't see it being all that revolutionary.
The one I link to above is a hydrostatic (hydraulic) type of drive system.

 		I dunno, I'm pretty sure this is based on some sort of work of fiction. Hence all the growling and supernatural undertones. Still, I wanna know.

I might be wrong, but its my opinion that people who buy tractors tend to not be very deeply involved in Internet culture. I doubt someone would spend this much cash on a site like this to hype a tractor.

 		Did anyone notice the odd symbol on the pic of the tractor tire?
Its in the top left corner, a little white circle with a hook.

I'm not to familiar with tractors so it might be a brand, but it stood out to me.

Do a google search for itscoming.us. You'll see they've invested heavily in ads on sites that involve heavy machinery and farm equipment.

 		The link to the wallpaper of the shed is broken. I wonder if it's supposed to be.

This looks very cool.

It seems to be a zip file they either miss linked or haven't gotten around to uploading.

 		Possible spoiler through a google ad (?):

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Compact Utility Sense It
A new revolutionary product that will change the industry.
www.itscoming.us/

Doesn't look like an ARG - just a fancy ad.

 		Radio Upadate script:

Quote:
"We're at the ZN Radio News, I'm Adam H. Lans(?) reporting live on a strange orange light in the sky. Witnesses call it a strobing light, that comes and goes, but always seems to come from the same location. Crews searching feverishly night and day to pinpoint the source of the light, say they're baffled. The sources, who wish to remain anonymous, tell ZN Radio News that its, quote, "only a matter of time before more information is revealed". Stay tuned to ZN Radio News for future updates. I'm Adam H. Lans, now back to your regular programming."



Dont know if this helps, but it sure doesnt hurt...

BTW I definitely agree.. that website is sick.

 		WHOIS data brings up something interesting...

Quote:
Registrant Name: Michael Smith
Registrant Organization: Unknown
Registrant Address1: 2210 Briggs
Registrant City: Parsons
Registrant State/Province: Kansas
Registrant Postal Code: 67357
Registrant Country: United States
Registrant Country Code: US
Registrant Phone Number: +1.9183986000


Googling the address 2210 Briggs Ave in Parsons, Kansas brings up "Price's Mini Storage" (620) 421-1797 so it's not a corporate address or home address, nor is it the standard GoDaddy anonymized address.

The Registrant Phone Number does belong to a Mr. Michael Smith, but it's a Tulsa Oklahoma number which is 120 miles from the registrant address, so...weird.

And sad...it looks like dnsstuff.com is requiring registration for future whois queries.
