Atoms for Henrietta (Spinning Carousel's in Her Mind) E.P. ....


The Near Future! Atoms for Henrietta

'Atoms for Henrietta (Spinning Carousel's In Her Mind) E.P.' is the follow up to 2010's 'A Little Understanding E.P.'. It took a while, but what can I say, thing's have been fairly hectic down at the penguin sanctuary the last few years..... 

Anyway's, it's a twenty three plus minute Trip-Hop journey that take's you through the bustling street's of New York, the crowded rush hour platforms of a European railway station. Accidentally stumbles upon an extraterrestrial abduction, for no particular reason. Plummets into the deepest, darkest depths of Willie Nelson's dementia stricken mind, for a very specific reason. Shoot's out across the funky Australian 'Outback', and ends the trip with a nice big bag of penny sweets and a bucket of sherbet dip high up in the frozen mountains of the Himalayas.

Just press play below and away we go.....






Additionally, if you feel compelled to add 'Atoms for Henrietta' to your own personal 
music collection, you can do so by purchasing it from The Near Future! Bandcamp page, at the following link.... Click me, you know you wanna

It come's with a bunch of extra item's which include amongst other things the very fine video above and a video of myself doing a stirring duet of 'The Wind Beneath My Wings' with one of the penguins down the sanctuary!

'The Adventures of Dollypartasaurus' Theme Tune.....

So I've been quiet busy the last few weeks writing and arranging music for different projects. One of the piece's being a short 'Neo-classical Metal' styled instrumental, to be used as the theme tune for a new television show entitled 'The Adventures of Dollypartasaurus'. Which is described by the production company as follows....

"A fun filled, action packed and animated, educational television show for children (and possibly mentally challenged adults), which follows the adventures of a prehistoric 'Country and Western' singing dinosaur, through the deepest, darkest depths of Willie Nelson's dementia stricken mind....."

Dolly Parton

The show is to be aired sometime in 2016 on an all new community based television station in the 'Samarqand Provence' of Uzbekistan, as part of the governments new "comprehensive child eduction strategy on mental health issues". 

Above is a promotional photo courtesy of the production company and below is the finished audio track. T'is a nifty little number, the type of thing Yngwie Malmsteen might hum to himself whilst flicking through 'Cosmopolitan' or ironing his XXL Leather Pants in the morning. Check it out if yea like....



And finally, if you live in Uzbekistan watch out for 'The Adventures of Dollypartasaurus' on a television screen near you, in.....
