FifeSpeed Returns

It’s been a while. But I found a little time and few instruments sitting around. So here’s a new FifeSpeed tune:

Raga Jumble

On a Roll

Before life gets too radically busy again, I’m going to post these tunes as I make them.

Here’s the latest FifeSpeed hit:

This is Your Brain on Sci Fi

Fifty

It’s been a busy term, between family, work and grad school. But I survived and now have a bit a time to monkey around with sounds again:

50 eggs

Forever and a Day

Yeah, I know. It seems like FifeSpeed isn’t up to much these days. And neither is Cosmogon, you might think as well.

But we just don’t around to posting things as much as we’d like. Cosmogon does in fact have a new tune that promises to sneak up on you:

Node 2 (or, how to record power tool sounds as you enter a black hole)

Porpoise Trilogy lyrics

For those who want lyrics to the tune, here you go.

Porpoise Trilogy: A Space Opera

Porpoise Trilogy: A Space Opera

Brothers of the fin
Swimming towards the end
Brothers of the fin
Locked in bloody sin

Mutant gene in a Petri dish
Morphed into a Frankenfish
Porpoises with cyborg claws
Dolphins with shark-like jaws
Jets packs on the dorsal fins
For flying porpoises and dolphins
Now the funding is in place
To send the pods into outer space

Meet the new labor force
In zero gravity they can stay the course
The fish feel they have to compete
Until a porpoise has to cheat
Then angry dolphins take his life
The flipper war then ignites
Rumor is it’s a human gene
That makes these fish so goddamn mean

Cosmogon Strikes Again

News from Cosmogon:

Before the year’s end, we needed to get at least one more tune in the can. Also, we wanted to let fans know that lo-fi space rock doesn’t necessarily mean all our tunes are slow and/or spaced out. Sometimes a space rock causes massive impact. So here you go:

5th Quadrant

Beerneck Blues

Not sure what’s going on with WordPress, but the FifeSpeed Board of Directors have intervened. The previous post from the other day was deleted. We hope this link works.

Where Have You Been?

Hey, who hasn’t been busy lately? Let’s see a show of hands. That’s what I thought. In general, we’re all not visiting our favorite websites and blogs nearly as often. And that’s okay. But I’m glad you stopped by.

Cosmogon puts out the best loud lo-fi space rock around. Here’s our latest hit.

Erruptus

Quit Holding Out On Us

People demand their space rock. I understand. We’ve had some issues with mission control and such. Cosomogon’s summer tour has been delayed, but at least we’ve got a new single out:

Ballad of the Space Boys
