(give it some time...) and http://www.lostcosmonauts.com/firstman.ra http://www.lostcosmonauts.com/firstman.ra managed to scare the hell out of me... shiver I wonder how fear and sounds like these are wired in our brains...

I've heard of the lost cosmonauts before. But what is the first sound? I haven't listened to all of it yet, mainly because you grouped it with the lost cosmonauts, and those recordings scare the hell out of me as well, even though I believe they are mostly hoaxes. It's certainly not hard to guess why unknown sounds would trigger fear in humans from an evolutionary standpoint. Biologically I wouldn't care to speculate.

  The first sound is a (german) numbers station where a woman (i can't help my self and interpret the voice as a child's voice) speaks some testing numbers (i guess) it's 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,0 - the interleave signal is: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swedish_Rhapsody_No._1 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swedish_Rhapsody_No._1

    Sorry for asking, but what is odd about this sound? I also don't know what a interleave is. But, anyway, this sounded to me as something we could find in a station from Lost.

      Besides being a number station, I'm not sure there's anything particularly strange about that recording.

      These real life mysteries were probably part of the inspiration for Lost. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numbers_station http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numbers_station

      Everyone loves numbers stations. Here's a video of one of the actual devices used to generate those signals: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xkc_Ig87TnM http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xkc_Ig87TnM
