The voyages of the Voyager program are contrasted with those of the Dutch in the 17th century, with their long tradition of explorers and thinkers, such as Constantijn Huygens and his son Christiaan. Their discoveries are compared with the discoveries of the Voyager probes (Jupiter and Saturn moons).

Die Reisen des Voyager-Programms werden denen der Niederländer im 17. Jahrhundert gegenübergestellt, mit deren langer Tradition der Entdecker und Denker, so zum Beispiel Constantijn Huygens und dessen Sohn Christiaan. Deren Entdeckungen werden mit den Entdeckungen der Voyager-Sonden verglichen (Jupiter und Saturn Monde).

Cosmos Part VI - Traveller's Tales

an indie alternative rock tune about a girl called Violet and her struggles with mental illness and psychosis.
Sometimes life just plays games with your mind and you end up somewhere and dont really know how you got there. This is a song about what it feels like when that happens and the uncirtanty of life it self.

I have used both acoustic and electric guitars on this one and my new audient soundcard and I have to say that I'm very impressed with the final result!

The song was originally a singersongwriter piece, it still is only a few things happened in the studio which made it so much more interesting and this is the outcome of that #session 

hope you enjoy this track, much more music coming soon!!
