Music News – New Album; Climates Of Our Solar System

One thing that always interested me was space and the solar system that surrounds Earth it started from the early years around four to five and started with the sun watching it each morning and night rise and fall and that eerie lighting you get in the summer around six to seven o’clock. Climates Of Our Solar System is an eight-track mini album that runs alongside my interactive post called Solar Planets which goes through the eight main planets in the solar system Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune with lots of information about them which I borrowed from Nasa and Wiki. I didn’t count the sun as a planet as that’s actually a star or did I do dwarf planets like Pluto the well-known dwarf planet but I kept it to the main eight planets or I’ll be there all day. I really learned a lot while putting the interactive post together and I put as much as possible with fun facts and other stuff I’ll leave a link in the button below if you are interested in learning about space and what is around you. As always I used my trusted Arturia V Collection with drums from the Mars Pack which I used a lot of the 808s drum kits as I like to use them quite a lot and were and still is a popular choice for most tracks. The tracks are also in the interactive post I made so I wanted to make something that was connected somehow so I worked it out and did climates of each planet with keywords like helium and gasses and tried to work it in the song somehow but I used the Matrix from Arturia’s V Collection quite a lot and is a go-to for spacy sounds from yesteryear and there’s quite a lot of sounds to choose from including basses, synths and pads. The first track Mercurius is about the planet Mercury which is a hot planet so I made it a summer song and something to play in the extreme weather we face. I like the vocals which represent the high volume of Helium on the planet with solar storms and harsh weather that a human just couldn’t survive on. I also like the Arp sound that goes throughout the song which gives it more of a spacy feel to or a planet in the future with the other stuff added on for luck and to make that full track. The next track Aphrodite is about Venus which is the hottest planet in the Solar System other than the sun it would out outdo Venus’s heat but as Venus is so close to the sun it gets the heat blast like Mars the neighbour planet but it absorbs the heat more as the extreme heats are easily lost on Mercury. The songs are more hot summer tracks which I used  Omnisphere for this one with stuff from Arturia plugins it’s one you can have in the background when summer is here and when it’s not being dry with that weather as England has more ups and downs than two people on a seesaw. I like the chorus bit too which I think makes the song and I also like the ending to it which as always comes to a climax. The next track Terra is based on the Earth and I used a fog horn on this one as most of the Earth is made of water and is a water planet but a special water planet that’s adapted throughout the centuries to survive and make sure everything is tickadee boo. I like the first synth and its rhythm which makes it an upbeat track and something more lively and of course upbeat. The next track Mavors is about Mars and one of my upmost spacy tracks which represents its cold at night temperatures and hot blazing summers but it’s not the hottest planet out there. I like the bass the second synth that comes in before the chorus which I think makes the track. I would say it’s one of my favourites on the album as I think it could be played when you are just chilling at home or if you are doing nothing just relaxing. I also like the ending too where as always gets spun into a climax. The next track Luppiter is about the planet Jupiter and as the planets move away from the sun it gets colder so this one is a bit icy and like a winter’s day but is still kind of warm with a smile on my face. This is another favourite on the album as I like the synths over the bass which I think goes well together. I would say this is one of my overall favourites on this album and think it has something about it you will enjoy. The next track Satunus is about the planet Saturn. I imagined Saturn to be a wasteland where nothing really happens and has more Helium vocals to represent the Helium element it has on its planet. Again this is another top favourite on the album as I like the spacy deserted feel to it which I think represents the planet. I also like the ending where I bring it to a soft ending with more synths and Helium vocals. The next track Caelus is about the planet Uranus which is the coldest planet in the solar system beating its neighbour and the one furthest away from the sun Neptune. Since it’s the coldest planet in the solar system it’s a chilly track which I used Omnisphere to bring out that bare-face winter feel which I like the sound of. I like the synths and the glacier-cold wind sound which is all from Omnisphere. It’s another favourite on the album and I just like the sounds and the synth bit that is the chorus. The last track Neptunus is about the planet Neptune and is the planet furthest away from the sun so another cold and icy planet. I like the synth at the start which sounds like somewhere icy and hard to get to. I like the bass to this one too and I think goes well with the other stuff I added and yet again another favourite on the album.
