Is there really a ninth planet? Scientists suspect yes. There is no real proof yet. In any case a mysterious matter. We tried to accompany this phenomenon musically with "MN9 - Mysterious Number Nine".

MN9 - Mysterious Number Nine

MN9 ft. joerxworx

Introduction in English:

Germany in the 1960s was still very much influenced by the Nazi stink. Violence and black pedagogy still prevailed in families. Beatings and spankings were part of the natural educational repertoire of parents. 
Unfortunately, my father and mother also joined this then socially accepted community of thugs.   
In this often ominous and latently threatening time, Doris Day was for me the ideal projection screen for a world full of harmony, clarity and lightness. 
Since my parents basically loved me (they themselves had been traumatized by terrible experiences of violence in Nazi Germany and, due to a lack of suitable trauma therapies at the time, unconsciously went from being victims to perpetrators when beating us children), they took my childhood crushes on Doris Day seriously and at some point gave in to my urging to write her a (fictitious) letter from Germany.... 
As an adult, I distanced myself from my childhood crush on Doris Day for a long time, since critical film analyses tended to portray her as a representative of superficial, shallow and pseudo-harmonic acting and song art. 
Then I saw her again a good ten years ago at the „Berlinale“ in a documentary with Rock Hudson and his HIV infection at the beginning of 1985. Nobody wanted to get Hudson, whose HIV infection was diagnosed in Moscow, out of there and bring him back to the U.S. by plane. Most were afraid of becoming infected themselves. 
Not so Doris Day. She, along with several other actors, organized the flight back. And when Rock Hudson, who was already seriously ill with AIDS, stepped out of the plane after landing in the U.S., she demonstratively stood next to him and put her arm around him. Even today, tears come to my eyes when I think of this unique gesture of solidarity and loyalty. 
Since that magical moment in a Berlin movie theater, Doris Day has become immortal to me. 
And I can only say: I was not at all mistaken in my early love for her....

Lyrics in English

My Blond Angel

When I was a little boy 
Just a meter high 
I fell in love with your blond hair 
That always smelled like cinnamon stars to me

I'd watch TV in the afternoon and then I'd see you 
As you came on the screen
You were pure harmony, clinically pure, high polish
You exuded carefree elegance

No one believed I could fall in love like that
Little boys are supposedly not ready for that yet

But I suffered, I pined, I was sick with love
My blond angel from the faraway land

My parents told me she lives far away from here
In the great wide U.S.A.
Her name is Doris Day and she'd already have
A husband to take care of her

But I wouldn't give up
I cried and cried until my parents realized
They found out her residence and address
And after my continued insistence,

I dictated a love letter to them both
My father translated it for her

He threw it in for me, I was still too little for that
My blond angel from the faraway land

When I sat in front of the screen the following weeks
She looked at me differently
She looked quite in love, my letter seduced her
Since then I was her little husband

For a long time I was ashamed of this love
But recently I saw her
More magical than ever
For me she remains a shining light
I love her

In the days of shortest sight
You crawl you crawl
You claw your way on hands and knees
You call you call

In the coldness of the night
You crawl

You crawl you crawl
You claw your way on hands and knees

Your own little ice age
Your pit pond
You sinking in the outwash

Raking stones
Breaking bones
Changing history

Hello partner, your ride is here.
Just slide the empties off the seat and climb in.
Don’t sit on that spring, it’ll cut you.
No, the seatbelt’s broken, wipers, too.

Where’d you say you were going?
This car doesn’t go that way.
This is a ride to the Last Star.
Don’t hold on too tight, you’ll get yourself hurt.
Trust me, you are going to a better place.

Little man
Takes a stand

You again. You sure?
OK, I’ll take you home.
Crack the window, it’ll help some.
And there’s a paper bag in the back somewhere.
Use it if you have to.

I go to visit this track and thank you toward all which he/she stops and heard. Please listen in headphones.
A connection of the blood. A bond. 
I feel that the connection of the blood has nothing to do with loving people. 
What decides the relationship with another person?
All people want you to connect by this earth. No, all the things existing in all space.

Echo on the Blood

HEHEE!! I HOPE Y'ALL ENJOY THIS FUSION!! MUCH LOVE, PEACE, AND HAPPINESS TO Y'ALL!! XOXOXO!!

Dream On

No matter how fast you move, she is still far away... why?

Lets face it, we all love the music we make and share. This is my own latest fave :)

Fun fact, in childhood I was always impressed by those pianists walking blazing fast thru the keys. Here in the bridge (1:41-2:14)I "did it". Not on a piano keys. On Push 2. Also put into a scale. Quickly running up and down on 5x5 grid ... not really knowing what I'm doing :) Dreams come true, she is getting near! 

Lead synth is Arturia OP-Xa VST also played on Push 2 pads, no programming. Some Polybrute, few Pigments lines, and IK Syntronik. With lotsa FabFilter Pro-C, Pro-Q3, Timeless. Bassline is 3 Arturia MiniMoogs. Mastered with UAD, IK, and FabFilters. Cover art: a personal star and road to Lick Observatory, California, 20 miles from house. Thanks! 

Musically yours! ~ S.P. ~

The Crab Nebula
June 2022
Duration: 3:00
Listen to the Cosmic Soundscapes Playlist: https://soundcloud.com/bruce-klepper-1/sets/cosmic-soundscapes
The Crab Nebula is a supernova remnant and pulsar wind nebula in the constellation of Taurus. A supernova remnant is the structure resulting from the explosion of a star.  The bright light from the supernova explosion that formed the Crab Nebula was observed by Chinese, Japanese, and Arab astronomers in 1054 A.D. The light has since faded and the Crab Nebula is no longer visible without a telescope.  The name comes from William Parsons, 3rd Earl of Rosse, who observed the object in 1842 using a 36-inch telescope.  Lord Rosse named the nebula the "Crab" in 1844 because its tentacle-like structure resembled the legs of the crustacean.
