about

We reside in the Milky Way galaxy, which is part of the Local Group collection of galaxies – numbering over fifty. This forms part of the larger Virgo Supercluster, which itself resides within the enormous Laniakea Supercluster. Here we find ourselves with some 100,000 more galaxies...our nearest neighbours. Laniakea is a Hawaiian world, meaning “immense heaven”.

Astronomers estimate there are around ten million superclusters in the observable universe. On the one hand, we are utterly insignificant in the immense & almost endless reach of the cosmos...yet at the same time we are all uniquely important: children of the universe, living in starlight. Born from stars. Returning to the stars.

In Superclusters.

REALLY wish I'd subscribed sooner to be able to enjoy this on vinyl! Curious the artist cited 12 Monkeys and not La Jetee as one of the key inspirations. For me, this has a more somber, introspective and timeless feel more akin to La Jetee than 12 Monkeys (though I also am a big fan of Terry Gilliam). Gorgeous music and you get the bonus of a list of excellent movies to enjoy (another note to the artist: Time Crimes is also a good film to watch). Now to somehow procure a vinyl copy...

Great album, love the dreamy nostalgic spacey-ness. The old educational samples transport me back to early school days in the TV room and when all we had to worry about was if we were wearing the right trainers or swapping Panini football stickers. vsep13
