Might Be Alon There's something about this album that I absolutely adore, and I can't quite put my finger on it. Favorite track: Alpha Centauri.

darkone253 Amazing, expansive stoner rock about space and significance. Never thought I'd run into such an amazing mashup of those kinds of themes. Lose yourself in the dreamy synth and classic sound. Favorite track: Alpha Centauri.

Chase This album is very thoughtful and introspective (by being extraspective). Fascinating how thinking about space leads us to consider ouselves.Listening to these tracks is floating through space in the best possible way. I always listen to this CD in my car when I'm driving late at night with the windows down. Favorite track: Flipping Time Like A Coin.

Verse 1: The road not taken is always the one that's brighter Without reflection, both my shoulders feel much lighter Decisions are temporary and life is anything but So what's the point of looking back when it just keeps me in a rut? And on the other side of time, horizons seek no compromise Contingency is in disguise and time goes on that's no surprise And all you are is what you do and all the time that lays behind you is just nothing new Chorus: (Ah) No sense of dwelling on what's over when you're always getting older (Ooh) There's no time for that all Verse 2: Do you see a darkness when you gaze at the night sky? Or do you see the images of stars from times gone by? The air I breathe is as temporary as me but I am still alive And on the other side of time, I'm just a walking sacrifice Flora, fauna, this device, a greater purpose shall suffice And all of us are temporary dancers in a great and cosmic ballet Chorus: (Ah) No sense of dwelling on what's over when you're always getting older (Ooh) There's no time for that all Bridge/Outro: And there's no time for that all there's no time for that at all there's no time for that at all (on the other side of time) there's no time for that at all (on the other side of time) there's no time for that at all (on the other side of time) there's no time for that at all (on the other side of time)

Gaia 03:51
Verse 1: If I wake up to see it was all just a dream I'd still be divided by what it appears to be and what it means So pull me down and hold me in the darkness gets out, the light is thin the changing circumstance is constant spin and it's always been like that A tiny stage with billions of players What if Hell's just the heat under the layers? And heaven on Earth's just a denominator? Illusions come and go while all the - Chorus: Grains of sand fall through the hourglass And soon you'll understand that you are everything through space and time Gaia Verse: If I wake up to shiver in the dark at least I'll know I've made a mark it just has to be anything, anywhere Chorus: Grains of sand fall through the hourglass And soon you'll understand that you are everything through space and time Gaia's hands are just a place to stand So let your mind expand through it all And let your thoughts be free not without Gaia (Ahh-ahh) Without Gaia

Verse 1: In my mind, I go to any star I please anywhere in space and time, traveler of the galaxies The petty things may bring me down for a moment or maybe two But when I'm realistic they're just so tiny and its the stars I look to Existence is greater than you may know, even if you're a snowflake amogst the snow life isn't something that you owe its an opportunity to see you're.. Chorus: Part of it all, and I'm fine Cosmically small, I don't mind Further than the light from Alpha Centauri You know you'll die, and you're fine Life has no guidelines, it flies by, Faster than the light from Alpha Centauri Further than the light Verse 2: The atoms in your blood, the stars in the milky way Everything is relative and it changes day-by-day The foggy eyes, a clouded mind, the meaning that you hope to find eternal size, one-of-a-kind, forever after the echo resides And everything has led to everything else, it keeps on going eternal fire lies on a torch and you carry it, maybe without knowing Existence the greatest thing you know, the beauty of you - a mountain of snow Life is yours, never without woe And the cosmos are flowing through you Chorus: Part of it all, and I'm fine Cosmically small, I don't mind Further than the light from Alpha Centauri You know you'll die, and you're fine Life has no guidelines, it flies by, Faster than the light from Alpha Centauri Further than the light

Radiolight 03:03
(NASA Samples) Verse 1: I'm only a human and I'm lost in another dream Where I'm surrounded by ideas but I'm still tearing at the seems and - Chorus: It's alright (x2) Verse 2: Distinguished achievements and accomplishments held high Is it really up to us to decide who among us never really die? Reflections like narcissus - a demonstration you need not find The key resides inside a mirror behind a face that looks unkind and - Chorus: It's alright (x3) Right?? Scattered images in Radiolight (NASA Samples) "Good night, good luck - all of you on the good Earth"

VERSE1: Like coreopsis without light, I frequent changes often overnight the beds I sleep in, the ships I sail the waves and oceans of my dreams are frail And while illusions come and illusions go, the current, my nightmare, the undertow - its all fine Theres always a way around it Theres always a part of me that has to pick up the pieces the current decreases, a trickyness to it all CHORUS: And far beyond the cosmic dark theres you. (oo-oo) VERSE2: Daffodill on the edge of a knife, the best of things, the shortest in life and tempo-rarity's a great motivator you earn your stripes so you can wear them later and excuses are the clipping of the wing to fly and to fall is to do anything - and its fine to scatter yourself is to expand, your field of view is just the eyes of you and you can see what you need to a circumstance to it all. CHORUS: And far beyond the cosmic dark, theres you (oo-oo) On the other side of time A tiny stage with billions of players the atoms in your blood the stars in the milky way reflections like narcissus -its alright.. Far beyond the cosmic dark.

about

This EP is a love letter to the cosmos recorded in my bedroom. It has been baking in my brain for quite some time now, and I really feel like I've poured myself into these tracks.

I hope you can find some of yourself in these songs. If not, I hope you can at least ride the vibe and unwind a little bit.
