Macrell in her observatory soaks in your voices, stories, first words, final words... but another signal has been swamping you - and it seems to be coming from deep within Akiha's rusting old arcade machines...

Their words have been reaching you – but what about the voices that have reached them? Incoming. Peri is devastated when she discovers the truth.

Coming soon, episode 6, 'Viral'.

Both Cuttings and Peri realise Monday Man knows something. Perhaps he knows you. Or do you know something he wants?

Both Cuttings and Peri realise Monday Man knows something. Perhaps he knows you. Or do you know something he wants?

Bullhook clings grimly onto life, while Peri warns that the rumours, ignorance and fear in Akiha will reel you in, brainwash you, tie you up in a tangle of words.

A trailer for episode 4 'Get Me A Stinking Goosefoot'.

With Cuttings silenced, Peri too is gagged. Trying to work out how and why, she leads us ever deeper inside her thoughts.

This week's Bonus OST is taken from Episode 3.

In between fortnightly episodes of Akiha Den Den we are sharing excerpts from the soundtrack. This week, a piece of music taken from episode 2, and a scene introducing the thought mining cockroach, SIlph. It features heavy use of the EMS Synthi A, a 1971 synth from the pioneering British company that supplied instruments to the BBC Radiophonic Workshop and various psychedelic rock bands of the time. Its sounds turned up in many early episodes of Dr Who (most notably Sea Devils with Jon Pertwee) introducing young minds to some quite challenging sounds!

Someone's watching. Squinting out from below a leaf, keeping an eye on the panatrope, the cantina, the wall all around. Silph sees everything.
