The saga continues...
I had so much fun making the 1st of these Floyd/Dead/Radiohead inspired tunes that I had to do it again. I went all in on this one yesterday. To me it feels like a lost track from The Wall meets an outtake from ok Computer with a touch of that "Wake of The Flood" Dead. 
(live drums through an analog mixer, Rhodes 54, analog hardware synthesizer(Arturia Polybrute!), 5 string electric bass, fender stratocaster, and telecaster guitars)  
This was an extremely fun experience making this song in the style of my biggest influences. Had a super emotional, cathartic studio day. life is a trip. MUSIC IS THE BEST💜

Sunny Side Up Vol. 3 (Valentine's Day Special)

20 years before the emergence of STS9, NASA sent Voyager 1 and Voyager 2 on a mission to the farthest reaches of the solar system and beyond. Each of these probes was equipped with identical Golden Records, special messages attached to what Carl Sagan called “a bottle launched into the cosmic ocean.” They contained numerous images and sounds from throughout the world, pieces of music from various cultures, a map identifying the location of our planet, and other information for whomever, or whatever, might find them.

While the Golden Records included greetings in 59 languages, they made no mention of nations and borders, wars and rivalries, or anything else that divides us. What they did mention was life, love, peace, birth--the things that bind us to one another and to the planet we call home. 

The Universe Inside is a reflection of this message. It is a story about human identity and the magical truth of who we are, where we’re going, and our place in the Universe. It says we are one, made of stardust and the forces of nature that evolved over billions of years. Connected by the sun, moon and stars, we are the living, breathing conscience of the Universe. 

"We are one, made from dust of the stars / down here we bear the weight of the pain and the scars / just want to live with nothing to hide / every one of us a universe inside."
