Fremder by Mike Dickinson

This album of tunes named Fremder (Stranger in German) is inspired by the Sci-Fi novel of the same name by Russell Hoban.

"On 4 November 2052, Fremder Gorn is discovered drifting in deep space. He has no spacesuit, no helmet, no oxygen, but he is still alive: the sole survivor from the mysteriously vanished ship Clever Daughter. How did he get here? To find out, Fremder must search through memory, dream and the unknowable fragments of his own mind."

It's a soundscape full of Sci-Fi synths and retro sounds to tickle your imagination and I really hope you enjoy listening to it as much as i did recording it!

This is my second Hardware only Synth album - the first being "Gateway - Unredacted" available here:
