I have enjoyed all of Andreas Davids' output on Inner Demons, so I was especially interested when I read the description of this piece: "My love for science fiction space adventures has been with me since my childhood and will likely continue to do so until the end of my life. Those stories, especially Star Trek or similar ones from the 1970s, have always been like a blanket to keep me warm in the winter, a comfort when things are going badly, and also a little trip back in time to the days when life seemed simpler. Back to the days when a radio play could almost vanish the fear of a thunderstorm and a movie could offer a fantastical journey on a spaceship when I couldn't fall asleep. This is a musical journey into my childhood." As a fellow science fiction fan, I can certainly relate. While most of my friends were reading Piers Anthony, I was reading Issac Asimov. There is something enticing about the final frontier that inspires both hope and fear. Despite the name of "Soundtrack of a Broken Soul," Davids seems firmly on the side of hope in this composition.

This album consists of one 20 minute track, and this track certainly lives up to its concept. From the beginning, it has a spacey feeling. There is a beat going throughout with bits of analog noises coming to the surface. There is a lot going on here and Davids avoids getting bogged down too much with one theme (other than the pulsing beats), which keeps it interesting. But this is not music for warp speed; it has a nice groove for those sub-light speed journeys when you just need to slow your roll.

Overall, this track is a nice excursion into the void of space where we hope that humanity will somehow have evolved to something better than we are here on earth. If you ever wondered what was playing in the dance club on the Enterprise, this is a pretty good approximation. Now go ask that cute blue person to join you for a dance.
