Today I create a new category, named 2009 Music Demos, where I’ll publish totally new music tracks made with the latest gears but with the same talent behind: myself 🙂
These tracks are demonstrations of my skills and creative ideas Creative Ideas (Part One) - Like the power of electricity your Ideas have greater impact when they rapidly flow in concentrated streams of thought. You'll find this and more in the article wrote by Deremiah, exclusively for ManuelMarino.com . Deremiah *CPE (Customer Passion Evangelist), is the winner of the 2004 Nightingale-Conant Acres of Diamonds Award and one of the top… and in each post I’ll explain the inspiration that moves them, the images (like the Astronauts) I would like you to see, while listening to them, and the feelings.
Astronauts and Funk Music
This first post is dedicated to big 80s space operas, movies, novels, astronauts and sci-fi culture. This is also a trip to old good 80s with their catchy rhythms, synths and guitars.
This first demo starts with a space choir, an opening orchestra and choir theme, I can say epic and grand, that creates images of galaxies, shuttles, astronauts and the infinity of the universe.
The choir evolves into a rock instrumental piece, with 80s synth The Synthpop Era - I'm not one to dwell on the past, but I must admit that music from the synthpop era of the 1980s and surrounding years holds a special place in my heart. Perhaps I'm biased, but I can't help but feel that modern music has lost a lot of its originality and creativity. Gone are the… effects that add a spacey feel to the entire track, yes, again more astronauts music. I can name it “space rock”.
Yes, as you see I like everything about space topics, astronauts, spaceships and similar.
The next style is jazz, a universal style that will never end to please our ears, today, and in the next centuries.
Synths are back in an 80s pop mix, while a really catching funk part ends the demonstration, making us really uplifting and excited.
I dedicate this music work to Richard Garriott, Lord British in Ultima and significant figure in the video game industry. And lately, also an astronaut!
On October 12, 2008, astronaut Garriott launched aboard Soyuz TMA-13 to the International Space Station as a self-funded tourist, returning safely 12 days later aboard Soyuz TMA-12.

Definitely heard some “Jump” in there. Richard’s a very lucky man to be able to go into space and back.
Keep up the great work Manuel!
Thank you, Jeff! 🙂
I too love Richard Garriott, he is one of my favorite persons in the world…
yep, Richard is fantastic. Lately he is working on a new game, named Shroud of the Avatar. Seems he still has a lot to tell about games and his wonderfully created world.
Thanks for sharing a great post on new music demo.
