Comment:
This week I watched "2001: A Space Odyssey" and was inspired to make this mix. When I think of music suitable for space exploration I always think of classical music, or sonic washes of feedback, so I tried to incorporate both of those into my two disk ode to the movie. I cheated a little on some of the quotes, because a couple of them are actually from 2010, but I thought they fit well so I used them anyway. The title used for this mix is the alternate name for the movie before they finally settled on "2001: A Space Odyssey". Plus, I noticed that everyone else was submitting two disk monsters, so I figured I'd try my hand at it.
Feedback:
Choice! Adding movie clips improves it by 100000%. Of course, the OST is also great.
Nice one!
