A  few years back UFO buffs began investigating some strange electronic  signals that appeared to be emanating from a spot deep beneath the  Pacific Ocean off the Malibu coast. They reported bizarre psychic  phenomena in conjunction with them, and legendary surf guitarist Merrell  Fankhauser was inspired to write music based on, and including them.      <!--more-->  <\/div>\n<div id=\"yui_3_16_0_1_1434431541582_22896\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0in;\"><\/div>\n<div id=\"yui_3_16_0_1_1434431541582_22719\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0in;\">Says  Merrell, \u201cThe song &#8216;Signals From Malibu&#8217; was inspired by the odd  anomaly that is off the coast of Malibu California 2000 feet on the  ocean floor. The area has had many sightings of UFO&#8217;s diving into and  coming out of the ocean. This has led many to believe it is an  underwater base. An ex Army radio expert recorded some strange signals  coming from the area. The signal recordings were sent to me by Michael  C. Luckman director of the New York Center for Extraterrestrial Research  and I incorporated them into the song. After listening more to the  signals I was compelled to write a symphonic song using more of the  signals titled &#8216;Messages From The Dome&#8217;. I had the feeling the signals  were communicating with me and I was inspired to keep writing the rest  of the songs on this disc. If you feel tingly after listening don&#8217;t  worry its perfectly natural!\u201d<\/div>\n<div style=\"margin-bottom: 0in;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"margin-bottom: 0in;\">Merrell  Fankhauser is considered one of the main innovators of surf music and  psychedelic folk rock, and is widely known as the leader of the  instrumental surf group The Impacts who had the international hit  \u201cWipeout\u201d. He has presented a number of television programs over the  years including &#8216;California Music&#8217;, &#8216;Route 66 TV Live&#8217;, and in 2001 he  began hosting a music show called &#8216;Tiki Lounge&#8217; that airs on the  California Central Coast, Southern California, Hawaii and parts of the  East Coast.<\/div>\n<div style=\"margin-bottom: 0in;\"><\/div>\n<div id=\"yui_3_16_0_1_1434431541582_23059\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0in;\">Watch the promotional video for \u201cSignals From Malibu\u201d: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=uzCqfIepKVo\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=uzCqfIepKVo<\/a><\/div>\n<div style=\"margin-bottom: 0in;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"margin-bottom: 0in;\">Tracks:<\/div>\n<div id=\"yui_3_16_0_1_1434431541582_23047\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0in;\">1.
