In The Darkness Of The World, is a radio play of sorts conceived by Sol Rezza. Combining the alien, otherworldly sounds of the deep ocean with snatches of spoken word and rich, womblike swathes of ambiance, the overall effect is something like slipping in and out of anesthesia disorientating, but undeniably pleasant.
