about

This is your Cosmic Captain speaking. Welcome to another vintage trip through the vast infinite space filled with galaxies, spiral nebulas and stars. This edition of spacey gems stem again from those days before the computers took over the reign on Planet Earth. All songs were spontaneously played and recorded on cassettes or tapes then.

The electronic equipment was rather basic with a Mini Moog and a Mellotron plus some tape-driven echo devices at the heart of my spacecraft. Yes, it was still the dawning of the ‘analogue’ pre-MIDI era where every take was an adventurous discovery full of emotions.

Thanks for flying COSMIC AIRLINES and I hope you enjoy your flight through space and time.

This is a re-issue of the HAM8 CD released on KHH’s Heart and Mind label in 2009
