My first musical influence when I was starting of writing music (many years ago!) was the legendary Jean Michel Jarre. After getting fired up listening to some extracts from his current album project I decided to revisit my earliest musical passion and create this pure synth indulgence - for myself... ;)
 
Hope some of you might like it too!
 
See it here set to some breath taking NASA time lapse footage:

Not a lot to say except for good job and well done in blending the kick drum, you know its there but doesn't overpower the track. Great stuff.

Nice work Chris. I really enjoyed listening to that 
 
 

Isn't that what they call "four on the floor" ? Or is it "four to the floor"? Anyway I got up several times and tried to answer my front door. Then I calmed down.
 
This is a very well done and well mixed synth piece, lots of nice touches and ear candy. Definitely a journey. Really cool.
 
cheers,

Thanks for the nice comments guys!
 
Really pleased with the final mixon this as some of my initial test mixes sounded a little 'opaque' - had a sonic equivalent of looking at the mix through frosted glass. But I think this final mix really brings out all the details of the tracks.
 
Cheers!

Great tune, Chris!  Hope to hear more like this from you.  This is a good arrangement that holds one's interest, and would be great background music for a film or video.  Encore.

Cheers Lynn!
 
Really enjoyed getting back to the pure synth stuff doing this so will definitely be doing some more in this style.
 
Quick update, earlier today I uploaded a video where I set the track to some awesome NASA space footage:

I need to get my hands on some of this NASA footage........ I've just seen the link on your video page 

It's beautiful stuff isn't it Andy. There is plenty of it about and as the original images from NASA are copyright free, and people have assembled it into great looking videos.
 
Get searching! ;)

Sure is Chris... I was watching another one posted here recently, also using NASA material.. Beats using my GoPro to take time lapse video of the sky, which is what I did for my M81 video... Took me bloomin ages too!
