Soma Messeiver Enables You Explore The World Of Primal Radio Communication


SOMA Laboratory has released the Messeiver, described as “an irrational device for exploring the world of primal, wild radio reception – the way it was first experienced by the pioneers of radio communication.”

MESSEIVER is a shortwave receiver that is capable of receiving different stations from all around the Earth. Its peculiarity is that it doesn’t have the classic input tuning circuit, which lets you select a single station. Instead, it captures “a big part of radio ether as it is”.

It’s designed to let you listen to many radio stations at once from around the globe. The set of stations that you can hear, their loudness and sound are defined by numbers of constantly changing global natural parameters. Weather, solar activity, cosmic particles, clouds and dozens of other phenomena define radio waves propagation.

The official intro video:

MESSEIVER has a luxury vintage handmade build, with brass inlay, wide range old school speaker, custom coil, NOS germanium diodes,  and vintage neon bulb.

The MESSEIVER is now available to order for €560.

Music and technology nonprofit We Make Noise (WMN) has kicked off an end of year campaign with the goal of raising $50,000 by December 31, 2024 to expand its program offerings in the coming year.

We Make Noise focuses its collective impact on challenging barriers to women and underrepresented communities in the music industry, and in any field where they are left on the margins. The organization blends music creation, technology training, community building, and workforce development to instill the mindset and abilities needed for success in the music industry and beyond.


Working for over a decade to “harness the power of music and technology to advance global gender equity,” We Make Noise has grown its presence to operate in over 55 cities, across 6 continents.

In 2024, We Make Noise hosted 3 “WMN Sessions” (songwriting and production camps), produced 2 festivals in Boston and Istanbul, facilitated over 20 online workshops on their brand-new HUB, and expanded globally with 3 new chapters in Santiago, Chile; Austin, Texas; and Auckland, New Zealand.

In 2025, WMN is planning to expand offerings even more, with new international locations and different types of communities, and with an expanded HUB for reaching people regardless of physical location.
