Track 9 – A refelction of those who have left us, but still feel right by our side looking out for us.

Track 10 – Respect the earlier machines, because we would not be with the current technology we have today.. however some good – some bad.. same as it ever was.

Track 11 – A tribute to the rave scene as years gone by, now like flowers growing on a pyramid – a rare sight.

Track 12 – A tribute to the world space missions, especially the shuttle missions, and also a nod and wink to the Rush track Countdown

Enjoy this music, it will take you on a journey, an emotional journey, best listened to in a dark room with headpones, alternatively, lying in the grass looking up at the stars.
