In July, I did a track on leaving the Goldilocks Zone, which was a sliding-microtonal/polytonal dirge with Godfleshian sensibilities. This one starts where that one ended (which was actually its beginning since I sequenced it backwards), and attempts to move to a less-entropic state. Multiple threads are explored, intertwined, and abandoned along the way, but what is arrived at in the end is almost a farce.

I’m of the impression that we’ve started gradually moving away from the hospitable zone, based on human behavior over the past 12,000 years or so. If the messages cut into megaliths, left buried at Gobekli Tepe (interpreted as a literal or metaphorical Eden gate) at the beginning of that period are any indication, we’ve left the proverbial garden and are in an age of predation. It’s hard to conceive of a zone where life could flourish where it doesn’t self-destruct, but maybe there’s a way. Meanwhile in politics…

It begins a couple of billion years ago and goes up to some time in the 80’s where the sunsets were eternal and the DX7 ruled the world.

A star system is born and planetoids and planets are created out of chaos. Most of them end up in the wrong neighborhoods. Billions of years are gradually speed up, which we hear through orbital movement and silent space. We end up in our own Goldielocks Zone with all the ingredients for sustainable life.

It’s a bit rough around the edges slight_smile:

@wasabicube Nice track and sweet ending!

@krakenkraft Crisp and intriguing. I imagine listening to this on the surface of planet A.

This is a fantastic piece and strongly within the theme of this week’s project, I’m impressed.

Strong Vangelis vibes there. “Heaven and Hell” mostly, with the cinematic heavy synth brass contrasted with the DX piano. Also some “Blade Runner”.

This kicked me right in the feels.

Thank you very much. It makes me happy knowing someone got something out of it, I did so myself :: It was a fun assignment.

Ha, you did take it literally, but it’s perfect! Stands out as a very different and beautiful track… i really like it when a track inspires a full-on visual movie in my head. Really great work here :raised_hands: :beers:

Thanks so much for your comment… and also, I really love your track: you put in so much ornate detail, and this alluring mystical mood carries so well throughout(also, i so want to hear this track in a video game… i could get lost in that world for hours).

Thank you! Felt a bit naughty recycling Project 0436 but I put it through a Puremagnetik Pastfabric plugin to slice it up a bit (which I forgot to mention in my post)
