about

A track with a chilled-out, sunny vibe and quirky lyrics inspired by the movie The Martian.

"Brilliantly catchy" - Adam Crowther, BBC Radio Bristol
"Jamie just loves how this one floats." - What's Happening Music Show

The majority of sounds originated from the Yamaha PSS-570 (1987), a basic 2-operator FM synth in a toy keyboard format. The 570 was one of a few of Yamaha's PSS range to use the same sound-generating chip used in the Soundblaster soundcards of the late 80s/90s. The lead patch in this version is from a Technics SX-K200 (1982).

Sun on the reflector dome
And you know we're going to make it back home
