Great choice of samples. It's so vivid.

Hey thank you! I'm glad you thought so!

The samples really are the centerpiece of this track. I like how the progression slowly builds up in intensity towards the interlude, my favorite bit is at 2:30 when the drums go double bass for a second to really amp things up tongue

Sweet sound design here! Lots of energy.

Thanks for listening man and I'm really happy you liked that section! I found a nice fat bass sample and it just seemed to fit so well I went for it.

big_smile thanks man! I put a couple days into this one smile

Good space launch this weekend, sweet song to commemorate it.  Big fan of that gated filter thing that shows up around 1:20.  Awesome effect.

Thanks man! Gate on the master channel comes in handy ever now and then.

Love the way the rocket sound turned into the stuttering effect around 0:13.  But really the whole track has great energy and the samples are integrated wonderfully.  They remind me a bit of the track Space Walk by Lemon Jelly.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u5VRo5MBUXY

Hey wow what a beautiful song! Thanks for that and the kind words. Really brightened my day.

This is a very strong piece as you've effectively married the message and the medium.  The piece is about rockets/spaceships, and so many of the sonic elements are referencing the sounds or technology of rockets.

A++, would ngineer again

Yess! I love NASA samples! Cool to see people writing about the ultimate hype event, rocket launches. Really enjoying these breakbeat drums, they have that classic driving energy.

Well thank you much! It happened to sort of accidentally come together out of many different things smile

Yeah I want to do some more like these. I would like to find some more sources of space samples too! Thanks for listening smile
