A perfect reading of that poem. It is absolutely perfect - combining the wonder, loneliness, and probably manic nature such a voyage would entail.

Thank you very much, Admiral! Sci-fi lyrics hold a special place in my heart. I’m pleased that PorchCat gave me the the go-ahead to use them.

Hey man, compared to your earlier vocals, I felt that this one works. As in, it’s almost like this song has to be sung/ recited in the way you did. Nice.

Speak/sing is something I learned from Lou Reed many years ago. Thanks for reviewing, my friend!

Very nice. I don’t get Krautrock vibes, though. From the line “Alone in my capsule” I hear echoes of the Who’s Quadrophenia soundwise. That’s a compliment.

Hmmm…. I may have fallen short of the mark then. It reminds me of an early Stereolab (very influenced by krautrock) sans the female vocals. Thanks for listening!

Very nice! The drums are a great addition.

Thanks, Sub! I came close to overdoing it as to the drums. At times, there are klagox’s electronic drums, with 2 tracks of my acoustics. Hehehe

This is a very experimental track full of really nice details all the way long!

Thank you wellman! The experimental part for me was leaving the guitars on their stands. Poor lonely guitars :(

Space synth, space lyrics, out of this world delivery, grounded with real drums = top mix
