An exploration project from my heart

Kingdom Of Stars – it is a big independent personal project which I have been creating four years (2015-19). 
It is a philosophical exploration of human nature, of our best and worst sides.
During work for me it was very important to keep that ideas only with myself.
Now this film can be also part of you.

In the process of searching, recording and making music, I created about 3 hours of it.
Most part is synthetic and was created in programs such as Ableton Live and Magix Music Maker.
Here you can listen an extended version of one of the tracks.
Probably within a year this music will find its embodiment in a big mix.
