Greetings Earth people! I have released my 6th solo album,
Man Without a Planet. The whole thing happened last weekend when I woke up at 2:30 AM and couldn't get back to sleep. I decided to get up and play around with the Commodore 64 sounds offered at the online sequencer
WebSid. And by 6 AM I had a new album!
The title is not really an homage to anything in particular. I thought it was original when I came up with it decades ago, but have since discovered at least two science fiction books with the same name. But no albums! By the year 3000 I suspect every musician will have an album called
Man Without a Planet floating around in a digital ocean of otherworldly tunes.
The record would have been too short, so I included remixes (or do-overs, if you prefer) of the tune "Gliding on the Psychic Seas" from my first solo album (
Psychic Awakenings) and of "The Star Call" (from my second album
Slit Wrists & Amber Waves).
I created the cover from my own digital art. But I created an alternate cover from an old 1960s comic book too, which I'll share below.
Now go forth and make your own electronic music to save the Universe!
Your pal,
Ken
