Final release from the STIR series: THE PARADIGM’S SHIFT - DELUXE EDITION
There is a disturbance in the time space continuum, and human history may never be the same again. Marc is interviewed in 2049 by intelligence services about his knowledge of these events. Unfortunately, very little of this damaged video fragment remains after its journey from the future, and things remain a mystery.
The TOO COOL DJ signs off from his show on the Antartica Radio Network as Marc’s “ANTARTICA - Live Archives” concludes
The ANTARTICA series has been a pleasure to produce, both because of the challenges it presented me in uncovering, repairing, and mastering the original stereo tracks into somewhat presentable form. Also though, because it pays homage and preserves forever the great work the three of us did way back then.
This is the ANTARTICA BROADCAST NETWORK signing off with… ACCELERATOR
Accelerator is the 8th single in the ANTARTICA series—the 7th played live by the band in 1982-83—and the last of this series. Marc has repaired and mastered the less-than-perfect original stereo files and this had been the result. Marc also created music videos for all of them…at times humorous, but always ridiculous. This became the components of the “Antartica Mythology”, enshrined in human history. Thanks for following along!

What if George Gershwin met up with Frank Zappa? Marc Soucy tries to answer this question with his friends in Antartica
PTSD goes “music first”: THE COMMERCIAL FREE MIX video out now. Music starts streaming July 18!
"The track pairs dark, pulsing synths with glitched-out beats and shifting atmospheric layers like the opening sequence to a psychological sci-fi film. Distant echoes and synthetic textures evoke claustrophobia and vastness, a fitting juxtaposition for a title that merges high-speed transit with psychological dislocation." - New Fire Magazine May 20 2025

“Soucy's signature approach invites contemplation and exploration, offering a fresh alternative to today’s often homogenized musical landscape. … Rather than chasing trends, Soucy leans into intuition and emotion, crafting music that’s less about fitting in and more about standing apart.

“American Velocity” Released to all streaming platforms amongst anticipation as the close of the STIR series approaches
AMERICAN VELOCITY, single #12 in Marc Soucy’s STIR series, represents the most “binary” composition in the series, even more so than Tashkent Club Fire. The piece is basically in two sections, the first in a classical style, and the second the style of an Americana jam.
