On the 14th of February, 1990 the Voyager Spacecraft took an impromptu image of Planet Earth from 3.7 billion miles away. This stark image that displays our home from the edge of the Solar System was the brainchild of renowned astronomer Carl Sagan. Sagan’s image, coined “Pale Blue Dot”, would forever challenge our perspective on ourselves and our imagined self-importance.

February 14th, 2019 marks the 29th anniversary of Sagan’s timeless image going public and also the release of IDMf054. With IDMf054 music producers MANTON are imparting an avant guard, electronically charged, audible trip through space. Inspired by the Voyager spacecraft, launched by NASA on 5th September 1977 including the contents of the Golden Record, Don’t Panic takes you on a journey through our solar system, to what may lie beyond.

With The Pale Blue Dot Sagan presents what amounts to be his love letter to Planet Earth. With Don’t Panic MANTON presents the same for Electronic Music Production. The IDMf Netlabel is honored to present it to you. IDMf054 is a release that is best played in a single sitting. Sit back, turn it up and let go.
