The Final Frontier You are on a spaceship exploring the new frontier. You are on the night shift, as it is called on earth, and all alone and in control of the ship. Suddenly you get an eerie feeling that someone is watching. BiaB style = VanGel1 - MOR Pop w/ev.16th Fee. The tempo is 45 BPM and the intricate chord structure is Am to Dm, over and over and over! All tracks got the Presonus Pro EQ effect: Drums - Kontakt Cinimatic Synthetic Drums. Each drum was on its own track with its own EQ. The crash cymbal also had waves CLA drum effect. Bass - Kontakt - TX81Z-Lately bass. FX = Waves H-Comp. Piano - Kontakt-Sparkling Angel Pad Guitar - Kontakt - Ethereal Vox Pad Strings - Kontakt-Far Side of the Moon Pad Lead - me playing my MIDI keyboard controller into Kontakt-AVA-Jenny FX - me playing my MIDI keyboard controller into Kontakt-Julian Sound - slipstream I welcome all comments, good or bad.
My momma didn't raise a fool. And if she did it, was one of my brothers.

Sounds like a forgotten section of Jeff Wayne's War of the Worlds - love the bass.

Hey Mario ...
Love it! I play around with this kind of stuff all the time ... haven't posted any of it. I doubt any of it is a good as this, though. Although I'm not particularly fond of space movies, horror movies and the like, I almost always enjoy the soundtracks. Cool - eerie - all Mario.!

Very cool, Mario. I, too, like the bass (been looking for that kind of bass sound myself...).
So much interesting stuff happening to keep the ear engage. The Ethereal Vox Pad is really nice...
Well done. Good mix.

Spooky & other-worldly...
I can see myself watching a movie while this background music plays...
And hearing myself say...
"Unt Uah... Unt Uah... Don't you dare open that door!"

War of the worlds already mentioned , I go with that loved this as I do w.o.t.w.
To me you are doing some great stuff on the instrumental tracks posted on the forum,
And I listen to them and I never miss/think their should be vocals in them.
That's a compliment
Thanks.

Wow - you did a tremendous job here! Definitely reminds me of some Tangerine Dream or Brian Eno. I love how vibrant it is, and all the subtle little effects scattered throughout. It sets a perfect mood, and is really captivating to hear. Thanks for sharing 
Cheers,
Deryk

Mario, Really cool hypnotic tune! Reminds me of Michael Cretu, Enigma years. Comments...bad... absolutely none P.S. If you find a female vocalist who can do some accents on this, I think it would be even more interesting. Enjoyed it much. Thank you for sharing! Misha.

I'm a big fan of you, Mario!
What an outstanding tune this is... yes, maybe it has inspiration from early Pink Floyd, Tangerine Dream or Jean-Michael Jarre... in my world that is just a sign of you making good choices when it comes to inspiration... and your track is unique anyway... really, really enjoyed listening to it!
Probably the upload of the month!
Thanks for sharing!
Will

Wow!
We are always amazed to often read about your number of tracks and then realize when listening how coherent and nicely textured everything works together.
We couldn't produce anything like this (even if we could play the tracks) in a zillion years but we can certainly fathom the effort that went into it.
Nicely composed and performed...and we like space movies!

Great work on this Mario, great work on this! Excellent mixdown on all of this and the chord progression is very nice. Adding the strings and other kontakt instruments to this sounds great!

Mario,
You`ve absorbed the space vibe and used your layered effects tastefully over that nice fat bass.
Very cinematic.One of your best I think.
