Retro & Drayven
Hey Drayven, ever stumbled across a dusty 78‑rpm shellac with a 1930s radio drama about a lighthouse that supposedly keeps a ghost on duty? I found the original sleeve in a thrift shop, it’s got this eerie illustration of waves crashing over a lantern. The record’s hissed with a faint static, like someone’s whispering a warning. It made me wonder—do you think there’s a real curse behind those old maritime broadcasts, or is it all just a myth we keep repeating?
I found that record in a crumbling attic, the static humming like a ship’s chronometer gone wild. The ghost on duty is not a person but a rhythm that repeats itself when you turn the needle. Curiously, every lighthouse drama I've tracked ends with the same line: “Do not speak to the waves, for they will listen.” That line, that pattern, is the curse. It’s not the record itself, but the way it forces you to keep your ears open to something that never was meant to be heard. Keep the radio off, let the silence stay. The whispering is a warning to those who dare to listen.
