Two drops in one week? You're spoiling us! This is unbelievably beautiful. Thank you. What you wrote in the description about the ocean being humanity's first frontier and our first astronauts being deep sea divers is so simple, yet so evocative. You most likely already know this, but the Ancient Greek etymology of the word astronaut makes this all the more poignant -- ἄστρον (astron) meaning 'star' and ναύτης (nautes) meaning 'sailor'. Sailors on a sea of stars!

Would love this. The bouzouki (the Irish one anyway) has such a warm sound...., it would probably go great with this music. If you got a 5-course (cittern) version there are various tunings available: CGDAD, CGDAE, DGDAD, GDAEB, or DADAD.

Good shower music 👍

I would love it if the people that make Star Citizen (CIG) would hire you to make the theme for a planet in the Pyro system (for example).

Surely Jules Verne is smiling down on you from Heaven for this.

This is great! I've wanted to pick up a banjo and start learning it after i found the first Cosmic Wanderer videos months back. I haven't been able to get one yet, but each one of your videos remind me. Any chances of releasing your tabs for the song in the future? Keep up the awesome work!

Look for a fairly inexpensive but decent banjo like a Deering Goodtime 2, and then get some old-time banjo books. My son learned from books by Art Rosenbaum, who lived right up the road from us.

Is there anywhere or way that these longer pieces are available on Band Camp? I really enjoy working to them, but hate running KZread all day long.

what synths do you use?

Hey I love your music and I listen to it all the time. I'd just like to point something out, you say no AI is used in making the music which is great. But then all of your videos have AI generated images which is disappointing. You can see there is a disconnect there right?
