The Copernicus Sentinel-4 mission, part of the European Union’s Earth Observation Programme, will monitor air quality with its ultraviolet, visible, near-infrared light spectrometer. The mission will be able to provide hourly observations, in a breakthrough for air quality monitoring from space.

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, Sequential Take 5, Nordwave 2, Nord Lead 2X, Clavia Nordlead A1, Access Virus Ti2 Polar 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.
