So, I got the DarkStar song out of the way. Once I fixed up the pattern it was not hard at all. DarkStar songs are sort of the easiest. They are really about the words for meaning much more than the music. Given a choice (and someone giving him a podium) he would be happy to just stand at said podium and deliver his insights. However, we are a band, so there has to be some music. He was leaning towards just an acoustic set, but SuperStar and Flash pulled him in a bit.
This song is really the meat of the album. This is where we make the statement that is the point of the album. Not just will it close out the peril (a bit like an old Star Trek episode), but will also make the statement the spacecraft are trying to make (and why they really wanted to do this album – beyond introducing a character).
One more song to go. Should be able to get to it (have some vacation that I am using). So hopefully it is all done and ready to upload early next year. Then we can start working on our new style a bit (though we will come back to story telling from time to time).
