Beautiful, really beautiful… computer perfect synchronization but with a beating human heart - like a soundtrack to the moment in Return of the King when Samwise spots the star in the sky over Mordor.

That’s cool that you went a more chilled direction with this. I like that imagery—the “heart” of a star.

At 0:33… boom! That was a very nice touch. I love the science lesson, and philosophical dimension.

Interstellar.
I believe every.single.word. A lovely thought that stars have hearts.
And I think you are the one who can make the dots between words spoken.in.this.way most recognizable.
I love your narration and how switch from dotted talk to soft words is unmatched.

Thank you so much, Siobhan. I’ve never really thought about the way I deliver spoken words… Hmmm… :)

One thing that stands out to me about Stefan Kartenberg is that he’s so good at so many genres. Still, here I think you’ve taken him somewhere I haven’t heard him before. Nicely done. And great job of sticking to the theme.

You’re totally right about Stefan being so good at so many genres… I think I always picture folk music with him based on our prior collabs. :) Thank you, Speck!

Excellent remix Kara. Addictive at times, quiet and slow in others. A very nice listening for me.

Love how you stuck to the theme and crafted some great lyrics. The drums stopping and starting then driving forward again adds to the march of interstellar time. Awesome

i’ve always been awed by the old light of the stars we see — and that we are watching light from the past. we are cosmic dust!!! yes!!! the vocal effects you incorporate are so powerful! the music bed you built using Stefan’s samples is so professionally produced and cosmic itself. and your chorus, wow, goosebumps. beautiful work Kara. you keep pushing us all forward into this vast universe of soul and music.

Thank you Kara for this great remix. You really touched my heart with that. I am glad that you have decided for an electronic sample. Electronic music is my root. In 1977 I started playing keyboards and organ when I was 9 years old. Only 9 years later I discovered the rock music and I started to play guitar. Today I like almost every kind of music. Thank you so much and a big hug.

C’est juste formidable Kara Square!

Bravo sur le travail global, un travail sur lequel on retrouve des reverses, des séquences d’arpèges intéressant,des nappes de synthés grandioses, , des sons spatiaux, un travail vocal bien réalisé, mon favori.

Belle base de travail de la part de Stefan

Bravo !!


It’s just great Kara Square!

Congratulations on the overall work, work on which one finds reverses, sequences interesting arpeggios, grandiose synth leads,, space sounds, a well done vocal work, my favorite.

Beautiful work base from Stefan

Stardust indeed :) very wonderful remix.

For some reason it has made we think of Fireproofbabies, think its the cosmic focus of the lyrics. A subject Joe often went for.

Thank you!! It’s so nice that you thought of Joe. I associate him with space as well. His stardust continues to inspire…
