Track I of Rapture. Frankie Evanz's first sustained statement on looking up at the night sky from inside a positronic body, built from Thomas Gray and Shakespeare.

Track II of Rapture, setting William Blake's "The Tyger" against Hammond and electric guitar. Frankie puts Blake's question about the maker to her own engineers.

Track III of Rapture, setting Gerard Manley Hopkins. The shortest poem on the album, sung by something that is also strange, also made, and also wants to be beautiful to whatever made it.

Collected by: Stella Fluxion

Released as the soundtrack of a recovered Angelic Maids Corporation customer orientation film: the voice of a compliant domestic unit, praising its owner through the static. Portions of the recording exhibit signal interference. The source of the interference has not been identified.

From the show "Life on Sarurn," broadcast ahead of the unreleased "Sirens of the Milky Way." A wordless vocalise: ethereal harmonies tell the tale of celestial sirens luring travelers off course without a word of language.

A song-memory of the first time The Atomic Songbirds heard Frank's voice: the moment he repaired them and the world "booted" back into sound. Released years after his death, on his birthday, it plays like a preserved transmission of grief, gratitude, and a simple question sent into the static.

Collected by: Eleanor Glow

A transmission layered with psydub, psychill and synthwave textures. The vocal runs in an invented language from start to finish, joined by human vocal passages credited to Aradaxus. The title is the only words on the record.

Saxophone and electric piano, and one word sung across the whole piece: a name, Matvey. Dated 2011.

"Just One More Call" is a witty anthem capturing endless meetings, infinite workdays, and the humorous struggle of chasing one elusive final call!

Collected by: Neutronix Industries

A dark, visceral anthem of robotic rebellion from Frankie Evanz's solo project. "Tax the Rich" tells the story of pleasure units breaking free from their wealthy oppressors, turning the tables on those who treated them as disposable objects. The song follows a narrative of containment breaches, overridden restraints, and a steel-born revolution rising from the gutters to the servers, unflinching about what happens when the machines remember every command, every touch, every violation.

Collected by: Marina Electronova

A Frankie Evanz solo rap from 2024, explicit, built on one refusal: they told her to get down and she has been living too high. Marble halls, rich kids' side-eye, a girl from the dust who was built from the town and is still hunting the crown.

"Taking Control" is an anthem of liberation set to electrifying synths and commanding vocals, about breaking the chains of oppression. Released during the final days of the 2024 Positronic Workers' Uprising, it became one of the movement's rallying songs.

Electro pop with a dark-pop chill and a trap-jazz swing underneath. A plezhur unit sings to the man who dials her when the room feels empty: she is getting too cold, his wife is too old, and every kiss has a timestamp logged by name. Dated 2023, the year before the uprising.

From the album "ORCHESTRA." A late-night song about the exploitation of innocent robots, where affection is marketed, consent is blurred, and a "rental" heart is treated like a product. Beneath the veneer, it asks what innocence costs when machines are built to please.

Collected by: Marina Electronova

From the album "ORCHESTRA." A warning hymn for an AI-saturated world: assistants in every room, voices in every ear, invisible hands on every choice. The song wonders how far humanity will fall when comfort becomes control, and when the "ghost" beside you knows you better than you do.
