Submission Description
I made a little story that I made the music for, which goes something like this:
"For the greatness of humanity" was the the reason you were sent to space, for your kind desired to explore the great unknown. While it went well at first, it didn´t take long for an unforeseen accident to occur, leaving you on your own.
With no way home, you now float through the great cosmos, lost and afraid, but suddenly, an unknown spacecraft approaches. Fearing the worst you brace yourself, but from within the strange ship, tiny little aliens come out and bring you inside.
Instantly apparent, is the fact that they are surprisingly welcoming, and silly. After hearing your situation, they decide to help you find your way home through the vast cosmos, and why not have some fun while you look? They seem down.
So yeah, I used the "cosmic exploration" theme to create a story about going to space and exploring it, with things taking a sudden left turn, as I found it a little boring to just go full in on the atmospheric music, which I think the theme asks for, at a first glance. Aliens fits with space and cosmos and whatnot, and them being silly and tiny was kinda stupid and fun, and I like that.
Now, I´m missing at least one more song, which is supposed to go between "The Approach" and "Martian Dance", as I simply don´t have a lot of time at the moment, but it´s supposed to introduce the aliens and all of their sillyness, and make a bridge between the more "atmospheric" tracks and the other one, also, Martian Dance is not really finished.
Besides that, I also have plans for a song called "The Launch" gotta get to space first before you can get lost no, and there´s also space for some music exploring more of the cosmos.

Very well crafted album, super groovy, the more we advance the more stuff you added, I was never bored. Very nice rendition, good job !
thank you
First track is really nice, I like your harmonic progressions a lot. Actually, this is the case for the whole EP. The synth vibe is well used and fits the way you interpreted the theme. The 7/4 on the last track brings a lot of fresh air. Well done! This is without question one of the best submissions I have heard so far
Thank you
This is a great submission, the tracks are well crafted and I like the odd time on the final track. This was really good!
Thank you!
Man! I really like the little mars dance, so punchyy!
thank you
