Space Album Idea

[jimmyc]

So not too long ago I decided I would try to make a concept album about this astronaut/spaceship captain who travels through space and goes on epic adventures, battling crazy monsters and finding magical planets and all that good stuff. The vibe is supposed to be epic and surreal at the same time. This is the second song I made, so please give me your feedback and help me make sure that the music conveys the story as clearly as I think it does in my head. :P There are no lyrics, but the music should do all the storytelling.

This song is called "Surviving The Black Hole :: Dark Wave".

In the beginning, a black hole is forming, and its supposed to be kind of sneaking up on the ship, so the captain doesn't know about it, but if this was a movie you'd be screaming at the t.v. "theres a f*cking black hole right there! watch out!", and then the astronaut/captain figures out that its there finally and is doing everything he can to save the ship, and there is this big struggle, but the black hole sucks him in and then it gets really quiet for just a second before the ship is all of sudden spit/pushed out of the other side of the black hole, and then the way I imagined it is that the black hole creates like a big wave/wall that pushes the ship along through space, but very gently, and so the song mellows out. And the captain doesn't know what dimension he is in but he smokes a cigar and puts his feet up instead of freaking out because he's a beast.

Enjoy

you can definetly follow the "movie" thats playing in your head while listening to the track, however i would like to hear maybe a distinguishing spaceship vrs black hole sound, maybe its just the headphones im using but i hear mainly a black hole approaching then a ship cruising in the world beyond lol, i also would like when the black hole takes the ship maybe a complete silence because we talking about time/space here (then again who really knows whats going on up there)!but after the silence have the blk hole sound ripple out and sweep from left to right like a "wave" then disipate leaving your captain with his feet up as you put it. all in all i like this track, and i really dig the drums in the mix it goes well. great job! oh and dial in the verb a hair, but again we are in outerspace so it works. keep it up
