A few months after the Harmonic Convergence in 1987, I was in my home recording studio preparing for a Salon Concert, when I heard a strange sound suddenly come through the speakers. I remember my reaction because it was so spontaneous and joyous; I ran to the speakers, hugged them, and announced - "They're here! They're HERE!" I knew that these were signals from another starsystem, another galaxy, and I was overjoyed at this new contact.

The sounds were a series of notes in an unusual rythym with a cyclical pattern, and very high beeps that were irregularly placed inside the pattern. This was definately not from earth, it was so unusual sounding. I immediately turned on the tape recorder to record the signals, as I did whenever a signal came through

For the next nine months, I received various signals. Some of them sounded like they were millions of miles away, others sounded like they were coming from the engine room. Some were so odd sounding, I didn't know what to make of them. At one point, a facilitator explained what was going on, that the signals had been sent from Maya, the main star on the Pleiades, to a nearby craft here on earth, and then from the craft directly into my Emulator II. (The first digital sampling synthesizer, and the keyboard that recorded "Novus Magnificat - Through the Stargate.") And that if I didn't suspect it already, I was a contactee and they wanted to contact me through sound. I asked - how did they get in my equipment? The response was - "easy - they just move an atom over." I asked why the signals had so much static in them? Apparantly because they had to transmit the signals through the "density of thought" in the atmosphere here on earth.

Soon after this report, I sent a request to please try to clean up the signals. On the eve of my birthday, a new signal came through. It was incredibly clean and clear. As I listened closer, I realized they had managed to insert a line from our Happy Birthday song into the series of beeps and blips. It was absolutely the best birthday present I've ever received.

Listen Happy Birthday from Space

Soon after that, they left -- the signals stopped -- never to return again. For a while after, I would sit there next to the equipment, waiting in vain for contact, like a lovesick teenager waiting by the phone hoping her boyfriend would call....Sigh....!.

Eventually, I sent the signals to SETI (Search for ExtraTerrestrial Information) for analysis. They wrote back to say that the signals did not contain the typical waveform they look for that indicates that the signal has come from outer space, but this did not mean that they weren't extra-terrestrial in origin. This independant analysis confirmed the data I had first been given, that the sounds did not come from outer space; but from a craft in the earths atmosphere, therefore could not have had the typical waveform from outer space.
