In 1977 mankind sent spacecraft beyond the far reaches of our solar system, carrying messages of peace and friendship. In 2024 these messages are desperately needed here on Earth. This heartfelt techno / synth-pop track is my idealistic and sincere hope for humanity. Stylistically inspired by Kraftwerk’s seminal track “Radioactivity”, includes samples from the Voyager Golden Record and recordings from outer space. There's also a hidden message of peace in morse code. p.s. bragging rights to anyone who decodes this :) i.e. = "Inspiration Emulation"... I'm learning from and getting inspired by artists and songs I love. This piece was inspired by Kraftwerk's "Radioactivity". I emulated some of the sounds and arrangement in my own work. p.s. My track is missing the simplicity and sonic perfection of "Radioactivity" - something I need to keep working on! == song links, with higher quality sound == Bandcamp: https://musicforseamonsters.bandcamp.com/track/humanity-i-e Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/track/5lq4BnXGdUBIlbywpAgu8W?si=f4c2baae99404b5d YouTube Music: https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=67BDKlNtgV0&si=zwWOeqRUXEOdpxYd Apple Music: https://music.apple.com/us/album/humanity-i-e/1734946823?i=1734946824 Amazon Music: https://music.amazon.ca/albums/B0CXHV9SG4?marketplaceId=ART4WZ8MWBX2Y&musicTerritory=CA&ref=dm_sh_trfspjRWqErURenKEmmvo9zwn&trackAsin=B0CXHKMLN5 Soundcloud: https://soundcloud.com/musicforseamonsters/humanity == credits & thanks == film clips aekkarak / aframeinmotion / aleksejplatonov / ATWStock / barselona_dreams / bilanol / BlackBoxGuild / Derzurb / @FL_STUDIO ZGameEditor Visualizer (Effect author credits: Audio Plane - StevenM / HUD Graph Linear - Rado1 / Youlean Waveform - Youlean) / francescosgura / geargodz / Grey_Coast_Media / kitreel / LENSLOGIC / localradio / Morten_Lovechild / @NASA / NonVFXStudio / Prostock-studio / seventyfourimages / sibcam / Silezkiy / SpaceStockFootage2 / starfaII / ullaviva / Wavebreakmedia / YuriArcursPeopleimages backup vocals and sounds Launch Control & Mission Control Vocals: @NASA Voyager Golden Record Vocals: @NASA / @unitednations / Ozma Records music "Humanity (i.e.)" by music for sea monsters thanks @elevenoneonemusic-mud and r/edmproduction producers for their constructive feedback and encouragement ullaviva for help with video upscaling @rcwonder and @AdventuresintoSomething for love and support == lyrics == I send greetings on behalf of the people of our planet We step out into the universe, seeking only peace and friendship Peace and love, humanity (It is with humility and hope that we take this step) Neighbors in eternity (Our planet and all its inhabitants) We're all one humanity (Are but a small part of this immense universe) 8 billion personalities (People of our planet) No race, religion, nationality (Hello from the children of planet Earth) Can change that we're all family We step out of our solar system into the universe, seeking only peace and friendship Peace and friendship Peace Friendship People of our planet Peace Friendship Peace and friendship People, people Planet People of our planet People of our planet Peace Friendship Peace and friendship People, people Planet People of our planet Peace Friendship Peace and friendship People, people Planet People of our Planet We exist organically (A small part of this immense universe) Held on by some gravity (My dear friends in outer space) Making our reality (I wish to extend greetings, and friendly wishes) Wrapped in our fragility (It is with humility and hope that we take this step) We're all one humanity (All of the human inhabitants of the planet Earth) It's up to us, humanity (To teach if we are called upon, to be taught if we are fortunate) Peace and love, humanity (Hello from the children of planet Earth) Love and hope, humanity We step out of our solar system into the universe, seeking only peace and friendship Peace and friendship Peace and friendship Peace and friendship Peace and friendship ------ Peace, friendship and love to humans everywhere
