This has got to be the most niche surrealist type of content Vinny has uploaded. I’m weirdly looking forward for more.

I can't wait for Vinny to awaken the sleeper agent within me I need a new hobby anyway

Vinny unintentionally activating several sleeper agents in chat.

29:00 I KNOW WHAT THAT MUSIC IS! It's the theme for Raumpatruille Orion, an old 60s german scifi TV show! Even the robotic voice countdown is part of the song!

He's getting closer and closer to playing Voices of the Void

literally lying in bed with this playing as vin says “yeah this is not a great stream to fall asleep too” lol

alternative title: lofi creepy beats to get anxious to

This shit was genuinely unnerving. It felt like someone was going to be peering through my window if I looked outside. 10/10. Would be scared again.

36:30 "That is a chozo noise from Metroid" No, thats our table. Being broken.

30:57 The guitar cutting through clear as day all of a sudden is so fucking funny

Timestamps for the different stations: 1:29 UZB76 / The Buzzer 2:34 The Pip 3:24 The Squeaky Wheel 4:14 Baron-78 5:22 The Goose -- Number Stations -- 5:59 Tyrolean Music Station 9:11 Swedish Rhapsody 12:01 Lincolnshire Poacher 15:34 E13 / Five Dashes 17:23 V28 / The Parrot 18:38 V19 / WTR21 20:34 S10 / The Czech Lady -- Other Signals -- 22:22 DB0UPB Research Beacon 23:36 2006 Kia Grand Carnival Keyfob 23:56 CRY2001 Voice Scrambler 24:49 GRAVES (Grand Réseau Adapté à la Veille Spatiale) 25:45 Ionosonde (Chirpsounder) 26:24 XSL Japanese Slot Machine 26:51 Unknown 40 (40.693mhz) 27:19 Exotic Cipher 28:16 Weird Robot Counting 29:55 The Buzzer Jammed by Pirate Radio) 31:54 Scott Amateur (I assume Scott County Amateur Radio) 33:35 Bonus Number Station -- Anomolous Chat Member -- 38:36 Signal #1 (Morse Code) 39:35 Signal #2 (Motor Mouth Maul) 40:53 Signal #3 (Who/You/I da ho) 45:31 Signal #5 (STANAG Transmission) 46:55 Siberia Antenna (Uhhhhhhh) 47:59 German Maritime Warning System 49:21 Mandarin Pronunciation Help Service Signal 50:52 FT8 51:27 Russian Weather Report

Number stations are one of my weird niche interests so seeing Vinny cover this is surreal

Oh boy, I remember the day The Buzzer was being jammed. Besides the music, the hijacker also drew some stuff in the spectrogram, mostly trollfaces and amogus. Fun times, there's something really comfy about listening to number stations with the boys late at night.

While spooky and unsettling, I like how a lot of this is cold war spy shit, it's an interesting piece of that history that you don't hear much about.

I listened to this at night and, i don’t know why but it’s insanely unsettling. On one hand it’s like, you know there’s just a human behind every signals creation. But it just feels like some sort of lovecraftian signal being in our existence.

Definitely wanna see more creepy type of content in a similar vein to this. It's kinda like Joey's Spooky RU-vid Night except more broad in content

If they're russian number stations they're not exactly anomalous. I'm just imagining some dude in a bunker twiddling a dial on a radio and everyone losing their minds

12:01 - i know this melody from a tf2 video. you can find it, if you search for 'tf2 spinning heavy' or 'this is the best thing i have ever seen in Team Fortress 2' for the OG.

We often used to listen to shortwave radio while cooking dinner in the 80's in Germany and occasionally the signals would overlap with a number station. It was a really spooky thing before the iron curtain fell. The uncertainty, not knowing what it was at the time, only speculation that it was for GDR Agents in West-Germany or West-German Agents in the GDR. Now we know the ones that came in through our radio was the East-German Spies one. Glad those times are over, but ever since the war in Ukraine the activity picked up again.

I love spooky season on vinesauce.

20:35 I can’t remember where I have heard this before, but I know I have. It’s so bizarre because I’m sure it was in some piece of horror media or something like that but the way these shortwave stations are created makes them always feel surreal and dreamlike. It’s like recalling a nightmare I had as a child, the actual details are fuzzy but the emotions it evokes are so potent that it makes my blood run cold from fear. I have always had a fear of automated speech and warning sirens and this has made sure I won’t sleep soundly tonight. Edit: I remember where I heard it. Killing Floor 2, Farmhouse map. It plays an extremely similar recording in the radio in the basement. I first discovered it while playing on an empty server at 2 AM and just sat and listened to it in between rounds. It’s so incredibly unnerving and I couldn’t find ANY information on it at the time.

Voices of the Vine 15:44 _Lemon_ radio

Kinda weird for Vinny to stream my answering machine messages for an hour, but okay.

Crazy, I just recently started tuning into shortwave radio online due to my love for Boards of Canada. Can't wait to see what oddities Vinny finds.

Thoroughly enjoyed this. Thank you. The Lincolnshire Poacher was also used in Cyprus until 2008.

I have this playing very loudly on my TV as background noise while I build an IKEA dresser in the other room. I'm kind of hoping that all my retiree neighbors in my very thinly-walled condo building, who were all born during the Red Scare, start having suspicions that the quiet single guy half their age living in the same building is actually some kind of cryogenically frozen Soviet sleeper agent that was just recently thawed & activated.

i'm glad vinny gives so much commentary because god this stuff is really unsettling to me i'm really interested in obscure stuff like this but i can't imagine listening to these on my own because of how unnerving these broadcasts can be

Seeing those automatic decoders is very interesting, makes you wonder how much stuff gets sent through short wave singals that people are constantly picking up and decoding the information from it. 42:26 Idaho Udaho 49:13 This is 100% some kind of teaching service, as you can tell by the man saying one phrase and the woman repeating it back. - 49:50 Especially this part, they're saying "How long will it take?" (My broken Mandarin making me understand parts of this)

20:40 Is literally the Grey Leno show transition noise. Further proof that Vinny was NOT conscious while he made it, he doesn't remember

now imagine if one of the "anomalous signals" was a recording of someone picking up the time that guy transmitted Joel's anti-alien alarm

I LOVE JOEYSAOS, SOO FAUNNY, WHEN HE PLAYS " *VOICES OF THE VOID* " I GO, UHUHUHU

My late cat’s name was Pip, so learning that there was a Russian numbers station that was called “Pip” was really neat. Enjoyed this video immensely. Thanks Vinny!

I adore stuff like this. I would be happy if this was a yearly or even more frequent segment on particularly creepy late night streams.

14:09 my jumpy ass thought she was gonna say 6...6...6...

15:49 Some old ass secret agent most have been thought "are you serious? Is this the best audio quality we can get? How am i supposed to understand my mission?"

If one of these started showing creepy images in the spectral analysis I'd fucking shit my pants

15:43 Definitely the creepiest sounding one so far

For me, the benchmark stations I would use to do a restoration on a shortwave radio are WWVH, which transmits the atomic time on shortwave radio at 2.5, 5, 10, 15, 20, and once again experimentally at 25 MHz. 1.25 MHz is out of the question for obvious reasons: that frequency is squarely in the medium-frequency broadcast band at 1250 AM. However, I wouldn't mind having a standard AM frequency to listen to that transmits atomic clock time.

God to this day the Swedish Rhapsody one is still terrifying

31:31 Apparently Robert Plant didn't always record his vocals to pitch, he sometimes recorded them a tone or two lower and would pitch it up by speeding up the tape.

This type of audio mystery content fits Vin real well.

Dude you gotta do more weird stuff like this. I live for Vin getting weird with it :)

@ about 8:05, the yodeling is being done by someone named Franzl Lang who was a professional yodeler in Switzerland.

Listening to this again about 4 months later because it was one of my favorite segments in recent years. Would love to get this kind of content outside of Spooptober.

OK if this is what Vinny is into how has nobody recommended Signalis to him? Literally Silent Hill in a Stasi future and Number Stations are a major part of it's aesthetic.

Vinny must play Signalis if he's in to numbers stations.

Listening to this at night is unnerving

I had no idea someone had sent him a collection of shortwave radio stuff like this, or else I would have loved to contribute to it! Analog radio stuff has been a big interest of mine for the last 8 years or so. If anyone wants to learn more, check out priyom.org for the listening schedule of real number stations, and sigidwiki.com for detail analysis of all the various digital and analog modes you might come across in the entire spectrum

Watching this cause I remember hearing Vinny say "this is not a stream to fall asleep to" while half asleep in my bed and I wanted to make sure it was real

20:29 Ah yes, Czech Lady my beloved one.❤If someone wonder, what is she saying, its just a numbers and picture is probably some satellite on roof in Prague.

The Yodeling here at 6:57 is actually sampled and used on a radio in Counter-Strike

I feel like someone is gonna sample these sounds for a sick beat.

Curious fact: the radio noise and the numbers that can be heard from time to time in Signalis are actually from an old numbers station, commonly known as "Three note oddity"!

Vinny just inadvertently activated a whole bunch of sleeper cells in various countries.

While watching this, I kept wishing there was a way to go back in time. Not to do anything fancy, just to know what the *fuck* some of these signals really are.

I sleep with your VODs on and waking up to this at 2am was so goddam scary.

Was wild to see this segment after telling my family about numbers stations a few days prior. Despite them always managing to creep me out they've held my interest for at least a decade now and I love hearing them pop up in streams or sampled in music like Boards of Canada. What a spooky treat!

I love listening to all of the crazy things on shortwave radio, the community surrounding it is awesome too.

I really love the atmosphere of sitting in a place that's bright and warm, but hearing all those sounds from someone/something somewhere far away, out there in the dark

23:58 That's it, the rebels are there. Set a course for the Hoth system..

This sort of stuff is so eerie and interesting to me and I don't know why, especially when the spectrogram generates distinct visuals and the voices become unnatural-sounding. I'm waiting for the inevitable one that generates an Amogus or Jerma's Sus Face.

my favorite streamer is spreading onto my interests and it's kinda unexpected, now he needs to watch cryptid sighting videos like joel

I remember stumbling into number stations 12 years ago or so. Lincolnshire Poacher and Swedish Rapsody are both as chilling now as then.

Thank you for showcasing these. Shortwave radio recordings are one of my favorite found samples to embed in my music.

Love falling asleep to this and feel like I've been trapped inside a small bathroom that's slowly filling up with water while all I have with me is an atari 2600 and a tv that somehow only gets reception of math channels from the 1950s

One of my favorite Sunday Stream segments in a bit. I love corruptions and other scummy Sunday content, but this was extremely entertaining and decently informative. I hope there’s more!

There's a guy up around Michigan that calls himself "Jake from the Great Lakes" who broadcasts from a CB basestation, and he carries on conversations with truck drivers. You can actually pick him up in Mississippi, skipping off the clouds early in the morning sometimes. Shortwave stuff is wild.

SLEEPER AGENT ACTIVATED- KILL RALPH BLUETAWN

I've made a chilling realization about The Lincolnshire Poacher. Despite this seeming like it's realistically the first time I'm hearing it, it actually isn't the first time. It made me remember a dream I had where I was working as a high-ranking member of the British government in what I believe was, judging by this realization, a foreign intelligence agency, and I remember the preamble, I remember the three tones, I remember the automated speaker. I remember it all. I believe in past lives and reincarnation and all that, so realizing that I remember this station despite never hearing it before in my life has led me to believe that my dream involving The Lincolnshire Poacher was moreso a memory of a past life. It's actually kinda frightening to me

We need a new Art Bell, Binny. You're hosting Coast 2 Coast AM now, good luck - we're all counting on you 👍

*Beebeebeep* "We are sorry. You have reached a mumber that has been disconnected or is no longer in service."

Man, this takes me back to early 2016 when I got into shortwave radio because of the mysteries and oddities surrounding it, even to this day tuning around the dying shortwave bands just because of how interesting it is. A couple years ago, I managed to stumble over the E11 Oblique number station completely by accident, and it felt like striking gold.

What a cool segment. I've been into shortwave for a while and its always so interesting. No matter what time of day you can scroll around and find something that wasnt there yesterday.

“I lied, I don’t have BBQ sauce. Take off your sunday shoes-“

17:20 So, it's funny he said that, because I used to fall asleep all the time listening to the Conet Project (big collection of older number station/bizarre radio recordings) through my old crappy headphones in the car when my family would go on vacation. I get bad car sickness, and listening to something repetitive and less dynamic than most music combined with the slight drowsy discomfort of the car sickness would put me right off to sleep. Would usually be jolted awake by some of the louder/sharper-sounding recordings later on in it, but overall it really did help me get through some otherwise long and uncomfortable car rides. There's just something about these recordings man, something deeply eerie yet calm, at least to me. Will say that the North Korean one in here really stressed me out though, that poor operator sounds so scared. Anyway, hope y'all have a wonderful day/night/whatever it is in your timezone. Cheers.

15:31 Christopher Young used that one on his score for Sinister (2012) in the end credits. It sounds great.

i am something of a shortwave radio enthusiast and the fact that Vinny streamed this made me insanely happy

When the DMT demons attempt to establish contact to our dimension.

absolutely loved this Vinny, thanks for the super unique and interesting idea for a segment/video!

At 28:40 ... that is the theme music from "Raumpatroullie Orion" a German Sci-Fi Show from 1966. At least in the background and the Robot counting down

Since I speak russian unlike chat person who recorded this, in that Novokuznetsk broadcast I heard words "Attacking", "Orlan" (witch is most likely a codename for something airborne) and "Over" so... I'm 90% sure it was a military broadcast. And I kinda wish Binty didn't talk over it.

I listened to this in broad daylight at work and it still gave me the fucking creeps

Have had a love for numbers stations since I first found out about them. Absolutely love seeing Vinny explore them! Would love to see more weird shit like this from him.

I love this kind of stuff. Funny he mentioned falling asleep to this, I was actually doing just that because old radio signals are very soothing. Combined with Vinny's voice, this is some amazing ASMR. But I actually had to pause it before falling asleep because I didn't wanna miss anything. It was too interesting. lol

10:13 I did not expect to find out the origin of a certain sound sample used in OMORI of all things by watching this, but, you live and learn.

This is easily my favorite stream that ANYBODY has done in years now

10:13 I know that it's not the actual words but I can hear "I think I feel safe 6,7,6,7" This audio is used in an omori ost 48:00 Mangle type beat

Oh hell yes, I needed more of these for sound design ideas.

Aw man, I love weird auditory phenomena, and I love Vinny, this is gonna be a GREAT vod to watch

They've been trying to contact us about our car's extended warranty since 1963...

what an awesome thing to randomly cover the conet project is a great collection of shortwave recordings

Super unique idea for a stream. Can't wait to watch this

27:41 exotic cipher is literally the little prickly things from wind waker

Listening to these makes me feel unsafe and I don't know how to explain why

Would love to see more of this!

ive been into this stuff for years and vinny decides to randomly take a look, pretty cool

This kinda thing interests me something fierce. Reminds me of when I used to listen to art bell on the radio. I believe he used to discuss these things, and the mysterious and digital nature is what adds that extra layer of creepiness to it. Would love to see more cool niche stuff like this!

Voices of the Vincent Anyway why are these so primally scary

I fell asleep and this presumably auto played after another video.. I woke up in the middle of this and thought I was having a fever dream.
