Story behind the song
A Futuristic Electronic Dance Journey Inspired by Artemis II Space & Time by Bear Cole and Michael Patrick Ceol is a cinematic electronic dance track that travels across decades of sound and into the future of music. Released on 1st Drop Music, this track is an ode to space exploration, inspired by the upcoming Artemis II mission and humanity’s continued push beyond Earth. Blending nostalgia with forward-thinking production, Space & Time channels the timeless influence of Daft Punk and the ambient innovation of Brian Eno, while grounding itself in the modern Southwest sound emerging from Arizona and Colorado. 🚀 A Soundtrack Across Space and Decades From the first note, Space & Time pulls listeners into orbit with: Dense analog-style synth layers that create a vast sonic atmosphere Bouncy arpeggiators driving momentum like a spacecraft in motion Nostalgic vocoder vocals echoing classic electronic dance eras Traveling basslines that move with energy and intention The result is a track that feels both retro and futuristic—bridging the sounds of the 70s, 80s, 90s, and today into one cohesive electronic experience. 🌌 From the Desert to the Cosmos Created between Arizona and Colorado, Space & Time reflects the evolving identity of Southwest electronic music. Produced in part from the new 1st Drop Music Tucson, Arizona studio, the track captures a sense of wide-open space—both geographically and sonically. This is futuristic space music from Arizona, rooted in independence, experimentation, and the DIY ethos that defines the 1st Drop Music collective. 🎧 Part of the Pegasus Project Space & Time is featured on Pegasus, the newest electronic and dance-focused project from Bear Cole.
