Starts off like changing the Tv stations and a host of sounds, then settles to some soothing chill sounds after, then the intensity returns!

Feels like the soundtrack to a 1970's kids TV drama like The Owl Service or Chocky.

Starts off so swanky and intriguingly sleazy with that groovy music and hilarious soundbites...
Then we're led into a glitchy glimmering dream-state on the wrong side of the tracks in Mr. Roger's Neighborhood.
But not for long, because the bass-ship arrives to take us into the stratosphere (with a slight delay as we break through the space-time continuum).
Now we're floating in anti-gravity... is that Mr. Trolley floating past us? I think our oxygen supplies might be getting low, I'm getting light headed but I don't even mind... everything is so sparkly...
What's that?... my coms signal is breaking up... Houston? I think we might have a problem. Save us, Mr. Trolley! The Bee Girls are attacking the fuselage! 🚀🐝

I love how the groove stays but becomes more and more chaotic; and then some primal vibe is introduced (Fuzzy, of course), and the atmosphere becomes more contemplative -- with still some kind of weird groove, that kind of turns into chaos in the ending part. A fun listen, great work everyone!

Loving the groove mixed with the audio clips. They work so well together. The morph into the second section works really well. I love how the synths keep everything together while we get distorted chaos hits that add flavour. Then there's @fuzzy's bass & delay (I'd recognize that anywhere). Simple, yet effective. The delay trails give it a real spooky vibe. Then back to keyboards doused in reverb & some cool tubular bells. Finishing with some percussion & more audio clips - this time it sounds like we're at some protest against the government. Very cool. Yeah, this is such a fun journey. But all the sections work well together. Awesome work everyone!

See You In The Shadows…
