We Built a Spaceship in the Backyard

By HoolieBrown on May 24, 2026 6:35 am

It was huge - my brother and sister and I could all stand inside at the same time.  Cardboard, 2x4's, a broken boombox for a control panel, a few corrugated fiberglass sheets normally used to keep the rain from splashing mud up onto the siding of the shed out back.  I have to send them this, but they certainly heard it before when we went on our grand voyage.

All done on the M8 - light master to get the levels right.

Yes! It's a perfect soundtrack to backyard space adventures!
Great track, I love how the high melody drifts in later.

Very nice! I like how it turns into something grand in the middle

Great!

Let's explore the galaxy now. Sound design is spot on.

Those are some lush synths, with just the right amount of brightness and movement, the drums work great with this, ready for take off!
