This is the first single off of my new length album which is entitled "The Struggle and the Progress. It is an album of all types of electronic music and each song that appears on it is inspired by and contains elements of  famous speeches from the last 100 years of human history. It is uplifting, inspiring, sinister and, at times, quite tongue in cheek all the while maintaining a strong musical backbone to each track. The are speeches from Neil Armstrong, Ghandi, Ronald Reagan, Charles Manson, Mohammed Ali, Timothy Leary and several other important figures.The full length has a release date at the end of August but here is the first single in 320 kbps glory for you to enjoy.
