Stellar Sky (Acoustic Version)

Prototypes/Replicas (Acoustic Version)

Envy (Acoustic Version)

‘Pale Dot’ is a reference to the photograph of planet Earth taken on February 14, 1990, by the Voyager 1 space probe. It is also a conceptual continuum of the song ‘Prototypes/Replicas’, which explores the fundamental question of nature against nurture. ‘Pale Dot’ is depicting the same existential matter from a more distant perspective, observing human behaviour and the interaction between mankind and our planet Earth from outer space.

‘Look again at that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every “superstar”, every “supreme leader”, every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived thereon a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam.’

― Carl Sagan, Pale Blue Dot: A Vision of the Human Future in Space

Sidus - Pale Dot

‘Dark Flames’ is raising awareness about the devastating conflagrations that took place across many countries in the Mediterranean region during August 2021. Nature, human and animal life faced serious threats caused by extended wildfires. This song is a call to action to all of us. Even if this burning nightmare is now in the past, the issues of climate change are still ongoing and they will keep affecting us and our home planet until we decide to consciously change our behaviour. There is still time to prevent the future ‘Dark Flames’ that will certainly come.

Energy In Emptiness (Revisited)

"I am Envy...I cannot read and therefore wish all books burned."
― Christopher Marlowe

Sidus - Envy

"Emptiness is full of energy. When the mind is empty there is nothing. Nothing which means not a thing created by thought. Such a mind being empty is full of energy. Then, is there something beyond energy?What is the origin of energy? Not God, all this is set aside completely..."

- J. Krishnamurti

Energy In Emptiness

“We are made of stellar ash. Our origin and evolution have been tied to distant cosmic events. The exploration of the cosmos is a voyage of self-discovery.”

— Carl Sagan

Stellar Sky

Remix version of the song "Envy" made by the talented Argentinian artist Drones Que Caen turning the song to an industrial rock soundtrack.

Envy (Remix by Drones Que Caen)

“One can see from space how the human race has changed the Earth. Nearly all of the available land has been cleared of forest and is now used for agriculture or urban development. The polar icecaps are shrinking and the desert areas are increasing. At night, the Earth is no longer dark, but large areas are lit up. All of this is evidence that human exploitation of the planet is reaching a critical limit. But human demands and expectations are ever-increasing. We cannot continue to pollute the atmosphere, poison the ocean and exhaust the land. There isn’t any more available.”

- Stephen Hawking
