Micky/Jynxz, this one is full on unadulterated free flowing funk. I remember Jynxz working on the synth’s and even in the middle of production It was killer. A Great listen from the team. P.S. I had to replace the drive belt on the cassette recorder. As soon as I’m back up and running I’ll get those hot mix files over. Be safe
Hola Mark,
thanks for listening and for the nice comment. Yes, the funk comes unadulterated...otherwise we'd grow long noses, right?
Listen, dear Mark, I don't want you to go to such an effort to transfer old tapes to digital for my sake. It would be very kind of you, but really not necessary. I guess I won't be able to stop you though... :o)
See you soon,
Micky (of course also on behalf of Rob)
Ok, so you fellas are smooth with the funk here. The synth/guitar work is over the top good. And yep the cinematic ending put the proverbial cherry on top! Excellent work here.
great that you like it. When Robbie and I met here on LM about two and a half years ago, the idea quickly came up to open an extra profile under which we could exclusively live out our mutual preferences for space themes, echoes, large rooms and StarTrek stuff. The "space" here is of course the one in our heads. It's really great fun and especially fulfilling when we can entertain amazing musicians like you with it. Hopefully we'll keep coming up with something new... but you know... since the universe is endless, it shouldn't be a problem. Thanks for listening.

Intro was cool and when it kicked it I was totally impressed! I liked the description, as others have mentioned, it's quite spacey sounding which I like. Nice mix, great collab...again!
This would be a hit on Alderaan at some far out cantina, lol! Thanks for entertaining me!
Hi there Wayne,
I (Micky) personally am very happy that the description could contribute something to the imagination, because at first I was unsure whether it made any sense at all. But it sure is a good substitute if you don't have a video to convey what you had in mind while composing. Oh god I can't even think about how much a video for our tracks would cost... the spacey stuff.
Nice that you checked in
Cheers from Micky & Robbie
Hi Kirkoid,
Spacetastic is a wonderful word ... thanks for that and thanks for listening and commenting. We really appreciate your visit.
Peace be throughout the universe,
Micky (also on behalf of Jynxz)
It's a no brainer to listen to your music. You guys make a fantastic team. Some of those synths are spine tingling, your vox and layered harmonies are just sublime. They remind me a bit of Duet by Breaks Co-Op. Maybe. Anyway brilliant stuff.
Hello Chris,
if we were able to keep you entertained, our mission out there is already accomplished! We are very pleased that you keep dropping in... you can't please everyone - but we're all the happier when it works for some. Thanks for listening.
Cheers from Micky (also on behalf of Jynxz)
Love it, as usual (I saw your name and knew what to expect.
One thing to consider is the chord progression you follow in the section from say 2:55. It doesn't completely mash with the vocals, which is fine for a bit, but I feel you need to bring it back at some point to have the full effect.
See if you agree - if not, still an awesome track and much love to all participants!
Hey BaoBou,
we're glad you like it. And you're definitely right about the harmonies, but I (Micky) won't go there anymore. For me the track is done and it's on to the next one, which hopefully doesn't contain any flaws anymore. It's a learning process. Thanks for listening and for your regular visits... Cheers
Ok Fellas! We’re at the get down right @ about 1:10! What’s so amazing? You two jacked from the mid 80s to the early 90s. Then you fill my ears with that unforgettable sound. You know like the band The System. The synth bass reminded me of them. This is good business.
Oh yeah, The System, I (Micky) was sort of a fan, at least I listened to "Promises Can Break" on repeat for a while back then... who knows, maybe the bass was still stuck in my brain convolutions from back then... Glad you liked it...maybe it doesn't sound like it, but it was quite a lot of work. And harmonic errors are certainly still there, if BaoBou should be right. Thanks for listening and for the kind words.
another banger lads, great all round, impacts beat melody bass the brass and percs are all fire. love Mickys vox and ad-libs, the mix is on point and the sound production is standout lads very well done yet again
Ahh, guys, you need an animated video for this one. I love that Bass, nice impact to lead to the eighties synth brass stabs., cool percussion, and a really nice slap bass with some well-phased pads. I hear Micky's voice nicely ethereal-like. This is a cool track mates.
Very very cool all round. Been enjoying your guys stuff all the way but possibly I missed this one. Musicianship top notch all the way, great composition and the more I hear Micky's voice the more I love it.
Man I love your guys stuff. This is just too good it's humbling. The music your making, it always reminds me of something but I can never put my finger on it, not that helpful really... Anyway this just has this lightness of touch that has me floating away.
Yes Rita, STAR TRAVELS is a profile that Robbie (JYNXZ) and I created about two years ago to carry our fun space music ideas underneath. We alternately provide each other with templates, fragments and beats, which the other then works on and expands on. Lately we've been incorporating more and more of my vocals. The topic is always somehow cosmic - be it micro or macro ...
Thank you for listening and rating.

Thank you Nodog, on behalf of Robbie I can tell you, that we're glad you liked it and want to thank you for listening and the kind words.
