The Penguins On Mars CD
This portfolio CD is collection of 11 original pieces of music. The idea is that the CD fully replaces a film with extremely detailed visual music based on the themes of Mars, the migration of the Polynesians from Peru, space flight, magnetic field reversals, and solar coronal mass ejections.

We hope you find our music to be fresh and captivating... and that when you close your eyes and listen carefully, the music will take you to another place.
