ESA's Euclid space telescope is creating the largest 3D-map ever made of our Universe, to study the most mysterious cosmic components: dark matter and dark energy. While scanning the sky, Euclid snapped a breathtaking image of Messier 78, a vibrant nursery of star formation.

This audio is a sonification of the image, where the twinkling sounds represent the galaxies and stars in the frame. The steady undertone rising and falling in the background corresponds to the swathes of interstellar dust in the image.

Cosmic Jingles: listen to Euclid’s image of a star nursery

I create soundscapes, music & art for relaxation, personal growth & entertainment.

There exists inside each of us a place of complete harmony & beauty. It is in this place that we stand in complete balance. My music & artwork are my contributions to help us reach that place more often.

Followed by ESA | Cosmic Synth Explorer | Music for Interstellar Minds

B I S – Back in Space (Marcus Seitz) is an electronic sound explorer who blends analog warmth with futuristic vision to dissolve the boundaries between music and the cosmos. Using a carefully curated selection of synthesizers – including the Sequential Trigon-6, Sequential Pro 3, Nordwave 2, Nord Lead 2X, Clavia Nordlead A1, and the iconic Korg Z1 – B I S crafts hypnotic sonic journeys that drift between galactic depth and emotional resonance.

His music is inspired by space travel, time dilation, and the dream of floating among the stars. Organic textures meet synthetic precision in a sonic language that moves effortlessly between ambient, space trance, and experimental electronica.

A unique milestone in his artistic journey: the European Space Agency (ESA) is among the select few who follow B I S on SoundCloud – a testament to the authenticity and depth of his cosmic vision.

Tracks like “Higher (Original Mix)” showcase his ability to build vast sonic landscapes with technical finesse and emotional clarity. B I S doesn’t just produce tracks – he charts acoustic star maps.

In addition to his music, Marcus Seitz designs VST skins for DiscoDSP, creatively bridging sound and visual aesthetics.

With every release, B I S invites listeners to leave the Earth behind – and return with open ears and an expanded mind.

Thanks for listening my music :)

In the past, a photographer was also called a light-image designer (LichtBildGestalter in german).

All tunes I publish here are free works and non-commercial!
I returned after the hearing loss (deaf in the right ear) and a long abstinence to electronic music in 2014/16.
While I used to make music exclusively on hardware synthesizers in my early days, a number of virtual instruments are now in use. My DAW is Ableton Live with a lot of Plugins ;-)
For many years, I have only been able to hear on one hearing. This makes it difficult for me to mix them but I give my best.
Besides music, photography is my great passion, that's also where my artist name comes from. Therefore all pictures and photos that can be seen on Sondcloud are my own work.
Enjoy the music, the pictures and have fun!
