This song was written in 2014:

I was inspired to write this song by the film Interstellar and the wonderful soundtrack by Hans Zimmer.  

I started off by downloading some samples of space sounds from the NASA soundcloud to add texture and ambience.

In the film Hans chose an organ, an instrument that uses air to create sound.  He chose this not only because of it's grand sound but also to reflect the idea of air in space as being such a precious commodity.  Inspired by this idea I layered recordings of myself breathing and also messed around with a harmonica which you can hear at the beginning and also pitched down throughout the song. 

The title comes from a line in the poem(which was also used in Interstellar) "Do Not Go Gentle Into That Goodnight" by Dylan Thomas.  here's a snippet:   

"Do not go gentle into that good night,
Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
Rage, rage against the dying of the light."

I tried to reflect some of the ideas of the poem in my song.  I hope you like it!

Flying To You

"Nineteen year-old UK producer Benjamin Brown, Aka “Brown Eyed Boy” has just begun making a name for himself as a new and innovative Drum and Bass artist, and is starting to be noticed by DnB listeners from across the internet on SoundCloud, Youtube and other music sharing mediums. Precocious and progressive, Mr. Brown is on the vanguard of modern electronic music, and has blazed his own trail through the ever-winding maze of the music industry. His first iTunes release, ‘Come Back To Me’ was met with full support from his loving fans and followers, and while that group is humble in size, it seems Mr. Brown has stepped onto the bottom rung of a ladder that can only go up.

Brown Eyed Boy’s new single, just released on iTunes, ‘Let Go / Nothing To Say’ is a reminder to long time breakbeat fans such as myself that Drum and Bass as a genre and a musical style hasn’t strayed too far from it’s roots. It’s refreshing to hear music that stays so true to its inceptive origins, and yet plays off of so many modern influences at the same time. You can’t listen to Let Go without hearing a little bit of BCee, and to the attentive ear Nothing To Say has a distinct resemblance to Omni Trio’s Byte Size Life. The combination of these elements, and Brown Eyed Boy’s mere nineteen years of age blows my mind every time, as it should yours."  - Theo Buchanan, Sublvl.  read the full review here: http://www.sublvl.com/brown-eyed-boy-let-go-nothing-to-say/
