A Mysterious Song on the Internet (2019)

Mine is an odd, backwater website hosting a few tracks of surrealist noise (music) by someone/some-people called "The Waxwing Slain".

I found it when I was 13 or 14 while I was trawling the backwaters of the internet. I downloaded all the tracks and listened. It was odd, surreal, satisfying to listen to. Eerie, even. I've lost the HDD those mp3s were on. And the website has disappeared into the dusts of time.

https://archive.org/details/MusicUnderTheMoon2018-10-16 contains a track with that title, by someone calling themselves The Golden Oriole. Probably not your lost tracks.

You are correct, that isn't it. It isn't nearly surreal enough.

Thanks for poking around, though.

I bet googling the band name just gives results for Pale Fire by Nabokov these days.
