Our spacefest entry!

Great job Bro, excellent vox and brilliant lyrics - love it.

All synths are GarageBand - using the Korg Microstation as the keyboard, including sound effects. Played in real time, audio out into the BR1600. Bass is actually my strat with the GR-20. Drum loops courtesy of betaMonkeymusic (great drum loops guys). Lyrics and Vox by the fab Hook - I LOVE these collaborations.

Journey
We've stood upon the moon
Sent robots to Mars
Put a satellite past Pluto
Taken amazing pictures of the stars

Open Endless Space Open Space
There seems to be no boundaries
We're about to pierce galaxies
Turned image into theory
Leads us on a journey

Imagination fuels truth
Exploration yields truth
Space The finality of its frontier
Oh to see the light of a year & to know its relativity

There seems to be no boundaries
We're about to pierce galaxies
Turned image into theory
Leads us on a journey

Thanks for the comments guys. I'm very happy with this one - its always strange how these things develop and take on a life on their own. I didn't really start out to make a trippy track, more a mysterious sounding kinda spacy one. Hook always does amazing things with my sonic musings - and turns them into a coherent song, am always stunned that he can do this with impunity :-) Thanks again Bro - loving those lyrics!

I was really happy with the ending - the endless bell - that was not by design but by happy accident :-) Really pleased with the betaMonkeyLoops - they sound really good I think - just a bit of bass EQ to give them a bit more thump, but that's about it.
