i'm currently doing an MA in Graphic Design, and my main project is to be centred around communicating ideas of scale and space

soooo....

i thought i'd listen to lots of space themed music while i work

and i figured this might be a good place to ask for some more!

plaese to hip me to spacebeatraer (and not so raer)

here are some things i'm feeling at the moment:





peace

    these seem like "outer-space" themed songs, which is cool but if you are into aural space, ie. effective uses of pauses, stops, etc.. check out ahmad jamal stuff or some lonely miles davis stuff from the 60's

    i never really thought about letting the music inform my work in that way

    awesome, i havent listened to Ahmad Jamal in a while - gonna go dig out those LPs right now!

    thanks

    Love the music in this thread. Here's one of my favorites as well. It's more lounge-y, but I think it fits the mold.

    can't find the title track on youtube, but there are plenty of good tunes on this (guijira, windows, straight up and down...)



    and one of my favourite kraftwerk tunes...

    Great call on the Space Dimension Controller. I would add Jeff Mills' work. Any of his stuff that seems to be concepts based on space, aliens, and space aliens.

    Our ish like this that sounds like satellites singing....
