It's 12-12-12 and what better way to make LFO Funk and LFOism commence once again than by uploading new tracks. 

To satisfy one's curiosity of what Kometenmelodie means: it means Comet Melody in German. It is an instrumental track produced by Kraftwerk as the second single from their fourth album entitled Autobahn (released June-July 1974) and the inspiration for the name Kometenmelodie came from the comet Kohoutek.

History lesson is over; now to fast-forward to 2012...

I recently joined a Soundcloud group which is dedicated to music producers/unsigned musicians who are fans of Kraftwerk and who wish to upload their own remixes/covers of the band's most popular songs. I've heard many remixes of The Robots, Computerworld, The Model, Metropolis, just to name a few, but was astonished that there was no remix/rendition of Kometenmelodie 2. Until now...

That is until 2012--until yours truly, Alphard, produced a version never before heard anywhere by anyone, a version that both Ralf [Hutter] and Florian [Schneider] would be proud of. Ladies and gentlemen, Kraftwerk fans of all ages, great and small, allow me to introduce to you all Kometenmelodie 2012!! The LFO Funk Version.

Kometenmelodie 2012 has been given an underground hip hop percussion beat and some lush warm pads to enhance the chords as well as a few other surprises that I won't mention in this description here. Just be content knowing that they will make Kometenmelodie 2012 a pleasure to listen to time and again.

Kometenmelodie 2012 is one of my longest instrumentals to date, primarily because it is almost the same length as the original Kometenmelodie 2 was in 1974, despite its faster tempo and I was attempting to remain as close to the original length as possible, as a means of paying homage to Kraftwerk. The album version Kometenmelodie 2 was 5:48 long; Kometenmelodie 2012 is just over 5:25 long.

Kometenmelodie 2K12

There is the steak sauce, A-1; Air Force One and Marine One; Three Times Dope's EST The Acknickulous One, WWE's AJ Styles, the Phenomenal One; Broken Matt Hardy's drone Vanguard-One, XBox One, Orleans 1970's hit single "Still The One" and there's Alphard The Solitary One. 

And then there's yours truly--Alphard One. 

The electronically produced music which adorns this particular profile is akin to Monk Fruit for the Mic, Stevia for the Speakers and--above all else--Erythritol for the Eardrums. They are harmonies that consist of the kind of sweetness that your ears would never mind being their weakness. 

As of January 2K20, yours truly Alphard One has something of a schedule--meaning that certain months of the year will have certain tracks in the spotlight playlist in rotation. The following list should provide an example, though tentative at the moment:

*January: Rod Taylor (Based on the late actor best known for his role in The Time Machine, Alfred Hitchcock's The Birds, Outlaws and his portrayal of Winston Churchill in Quentin Tarentino's Inglorious Bastards)and AU (Australia Day).

*March: Kremlin Blok Party (A month long spotlight on underground music's only Soulful Soviet Synth Song--so Stop Stalin And Start Lenin Your Ears.) Hate Putin? You'll at least love the single.

*April: Ambient April and Happy Noodsta Day (An introduction to the Noodsta Saga--the backbone of Aussie Boom Bap, and Coinciding with ANZAC Day in Australia and New Zealand).

*May: Antaeus Envy (Beginning on Cinco de Mayo, May 5, and ending on the 31st) and Queen's Coronation (Beginning on Victoria Day--although, I'm not Canadian, I am down with May Two-Four!)

*August: AMBIENT ALERT! Ambient August, the second month of the calendar year when more tunes which exemplify my take on the Ambient genre can be found on the playlist. In the tradition of Aphex Twin, Tangerine Dream, Brian Eno, Yasuaki Shimizu and The Kyoto Connection.  Yeah, I go there.

*October: The Komenation--In observation and acknowledgement of Breast Cancer Awareness Month(October 1-31)

*November: Post Modern Thump Month (Making Boom Bap Boom Again/Keep Boom Bap Booming)

*December: Russ Tamblyn (whose birthday falls on the 30th of that month) and Alternate Noodsta Day (All month long up until the 19th whereupon a new track based on the Noodsta Saga will be released--Wait and see,,,all I can say at this point)

Everything else in the current playlist is featured all year round (including Divine Bangers, LFOstrumentals, Celestial Trips, TRI-outs and A1C1s: Alphard One's Certain Ones). In the meantime, take a listen yourself and feel free to Like/Share/Repost/Follow. 

If I haven't said this already: once you do, it is certain that you will become a Phan of Alphard--Convinced and Converted.
