The only thing that could make it scarier is if it ended with 'You've got mail"

I didn't know Sigur Ros had a new album.

Bathia_Mapes: phlegmmo: cameroncrazy1984: This is a repeat. A creepy as hell repeat.

The site says By Scott Beale on June 29, 2011, but I would have guessed it was older than that.

If you click on the green highlighted link below the video it goes to youtube & a video dated February 1, 2011.

So, on 14 Dec we're posting a 29 Jun article about a 1 Feb YouTube upload.

Way to stay relevant, Fark.

Bathia_Mapes eats my dreams of good submissions to Fark. :(

Is dial-up still considered modern?

They're coming for you, subby.

Justin Bieber U Smile 666% slower in reverse (new window)

Is it bad that I can recognize the v.22, v.32 and v.42bis handshakes?

pseudowho: I think that sounds extremely cool, and at some points almost oddly soothing. Not creepy.

But I'm weird, so what do I know. Heh.

You and me both, dude.

they couldn't break 36kbps?
shiatty hardware is shiatty

the real fun comes when you down-shift a 52k connection and spread the spectrum across human hearing range from 30 to 18k

Sounds like a song from the old Ghost in the Shell: Standalone Complex soundtrack.

Right there with you.

If Slenderman makes a sound, this has to be it.

RatMaster999: If Slenderman makes a sound, this has to be it.

And now it's even better.

Link is now farked. So its a dial-up simulator? How meta.

Sounds like just about anything by Godspeed You Black Emperor. I like.

How does one slow something down 700%? After it's slowed down 100%, doesn't it stop playing?

what's a dial-up modem?

/kidding
//but my 1-year-old daughter will probably never hear one... unless she happens by a fax machine in the next few years before they stop being used completely.

doesn't sound right. I remember playing with reel to reels and got a feel for what something sounds like at half speed, this aint it.

more like they took the frequency, kept it the same, and just lengthened their samples making it sound like it was slowed down. even then it only sound like 30% of normal speed

at 700% you should be able to hear the ones and zeros, anyone wanna do the math?

Sounds like V'ger

Wouldn't slowing something down by 100% completely stop it? How do you slow something by 700%?

It sounds relaxing. Reminds me somewhat of the end of 'I am sitting in a room'

Horror? Sounds to me like most of the sound affects from Star Trek: The Motion Picture.

Mostly the transporter, then the end kinda sounds like the trippy V'ger sounds.

Otto's_Jacket: Sounds like Brian Eno and Trent Reznor in the studio together after a few shots of absinthe.

Ha! That's awesome, that's exactly it! I actually thought it was kind of beautiful in a lugubrious sort of way. I always loved the musical quality of the dialing and connection tones.

This also would have fit nicely in between any two tracks on OK Computer.

SuperChuck: Wouldn't slowing something down by 100% completely stop it? How do you slow something by 700%?

Time/math does not work that way.

Sounds like parts of the Dune soundtrack.
I mean the original movie.

I am totally going to make a song with this sample.

//Glad they have it in HD. Much better viewing.

Repeat
