Send us Fan MailIts safe to say that us humans have always been curious about what exists beyond what we can see with our own eyes. By 1400 BCE, discovered Hindu texts show that we were already beginning to map the space around us. Astrology can be broadly considered the search for human meaning in the sky. It makes sense then, that artists, including musicians and film makers, have always found huge inspiration in the space around us.  It also makes for some great metaphors. On this episode we showcase four bands who did just that. We also look briefly at TV and film, who in particular have often tapped into the mystery and immense wonder of the universe to great effect.     Make sure you check out the playlist for the episode here:   https://open.spotify.com/playlist/0FRcf10dCiRGQDjVpW3Onw?si=3026e2f6cffa487bTrack 1: Shared, Film scores, Star Wars, "Main title"  John Williams and the London Orchestra.https://youtu.be/54hoKbTWon4?si=1Ih_kx6T-3i688U5   Materia Primoris: "The X-Files Theme (Main Title)"https://youtu.be/hAAlDoAtV7Y?si=RVw-hmDabSq-92DqTrack 2: Dave, "Shannon and the Clams, "The Moon is in the wrong place", (Official video)https://youtu.be/LxHtq6m5YNk?si=sc3zpoMt7WGUpiK0Track 3: Mark, John Grant, "Outer Space" Live with the London Philharmonic Orchestrahttps://youtu.be/TyfCs-16RS4?si=YiK5W4cP1nNDnQjNTrack 4: Dave, Duster, "Earth moon transit"https://youtu.be/P85Xe0maEEY?si=x7GsUt1lkfxJn2szTrack 5: Mark, Gabriels, "To the moon and back"https://youtu.be/4o2VRIiC_Cc?si=reSAPWhH9KgUtyHC Extras: Eddie Izzard "The moon landing" https://youtu.be/vITJdaJ4xxM?si=I6xmp4oxnQUWMApwDr Who theme 1963 (Original) https://youtu.be/75V4ClJZME4?si=-Q5sR2kOX3bYVsrLTelevision, "Marquee Moon", Live at Desert Daze, 2016 https://youtu.be/KKbF3iY2cKE?si=bpikzA58dlF-lojODavid Bowie, ''Ashes to Ashes" (Official video) https://youtu.be/HyMm4rJemtI?si=c4Fb5NSaB-2_Kv1dPixies, "Planet of Sound", Live at itunes festival 2013 https://youtu.be/14dGkcuoqJY?si=_MST1BXyI6QKpaf5Sun Kil Moon, "Tonight the sky''https://youtu.be/ZVTZER67bxo?si=3V95UIa5-xD2IC6n Boygenius, "'Blackhole"https://youtu.be/aqppZxzDAd0?si=4Uz_e97sYk-MfQI_Nick Drake https://youtu.be/xqe6TF2y8i4?si=L-P42YSqpOP0cBgzTheme tune and all music heard on the show performed by: David Lee OwenContact the team: [email protected] us:Facebookhttps://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100089236598175Thanks heaps for listening to the show

Send us Fan MailGiven his somewhat unhealthy obsession with music documentaries, Mark takes the lead on this episode. Focussing on five lesser known documentaries, covering the stories of some really interesting bands. From the challenges of touring in a small van, for weeks on end, to dealing with profound loss. All these films have something in common, they are all:  fascinating, entertaining and heartbreaking . The thread that links them all is they are all artists with an uncompromising attitude, the drive to create and a desire to connect with people in their own unique way.
