COSMIC SOUNDWAVES

GDES 2230

The theme of this record is a vintage sci-fi movie that features a terrifying outer space monster. The two songs, “Chan” and “Mars Craters” are from the Electronic and Contemporary genre based on the Smithsonian Folkways website. “Chan” provides a softer and ambient tone and generates a calm feeling, as if the listener has entered space for the first time and is surrounded by its beauty. “Mars Craters” adds a twist, with a tense and unsettling feeling that is associated with the monster hiding on the back of the album cover.
