Automated Gay Space Communism

The future we deserve.
I was feeling like doing some kind of "elevator jazz" track this week, then sleepunit dropped this on discord, and I knew what I had to do:
if we lived in fully automated gay space communism ala star trek I feel like we'd all give much less of a shit because the implications would be entirely different. if we've all got our basic needs met without having to sell our creativity, then this becomes a much more interesting conversation about trying to define art. which is impossible and way more fun to talk through because of that.
It's got a dash of electric piano, a splash of cat gut bass (no animals were harmed on this holodeck), and a ton of me going ham on like a $20 glockenspiel xylophone my kids got me for my birthday a couple years ago. Lyrics are Star Trek quotes, of no particular generation.
