Jess's Retro Wave & Nova Hart Sanctuary

★ Hi

Jess here, Boise. I'm 24. This is my first homepage so be nice. I got into Nova thanks to a mixtape with no label.

★ Favorite

'Where The Fire Goes', no contest. My roommate has heard it 34 times this week and is threatening to move out !!

★ A Sceptic's Counter-Argument

I don't believe in ghosts in the machine. I do believe Orion is hiding something, because companies always are.

★ 14.2 Hz Signal Analysis & DSP

Ran Where The Fire Goes through a 34-point FFT on my 486. There's a line at 14.2 Hz, about 35 dB down. It's on every pressing I own.

 Frequency (Hz) | Level (dB) | Spectral Density [FFT 4096]
----------------+------------+--------------------------------
  10.0 Hz       |  -64 dB    | *
  14.2 Hz [PEAK]|  -42 dB    | ************************** [CARRIER]
  18.5 Hz       |  -68 dB    | *
  50/60 Hz      |  -52 dB    | ******* [MAINS HUM]
