Today's Webtip: Space Sounds
You've probably heard of The Planets from Gustav Holst. A seven movement orchestral suite composed at the beginning of the 20th century. It's lovely, but it's not really space music.
It would take a few decades before the technology would become available to actually get beyond our planet and extend our ears to places they had never been before. But it has happened, and now artists are using that to create new pieces that sound lovely in their own ways.
Lefse Records have brought out a compilation of songs composed using recordings of electromatic radiation recorded by the Voyager probes. You can get a taste of what that might be like by checking out a soundcloud link from the band Youth Lagoon. The track is called Worms, and it's pretty spaceig.
