about
The story of this composition goes way back to the Solarshift days, around the year 2000, when we had already started working on it, with the intention of including it in our second album (seeing as the tracks for first one were already defined and there was obviously no room for an extra 24-minute track). Considering that the possibility of Solarshift’s second album ever being recorded is very remote (since we never even got to release our first album yet, 18 years later), I have decided to re-record it for this album. Nonetheless, I have still managed to keep some of the original tracks which were recorded during those sessions
back in 2000. The lyrics are about the first interstellar expedition, with the objective of exploring another solar system and studying its planets and possible life forms. But something goes wrong, possibly due to some unknown quantum effects, and upon arriving at their destination, our heroes find themselves in the right place, but at the wrong time. It seems like they have returned 100 million years in the past, with no chance of ever contacting home (unless they wanted to chat with dinosaurs).
lyrics
Out of Space
a. Cosmic Dance
b. Onward and Upward
We're gonna travel
through the stars
Always leading the way
and when you'll see we'll be
away from home
Onward we'll go
up to the sky
And as such we're now saving
The day when true
daring was something
and there's nowhere else to go...
Onward we go
up to the sky
And we were always saying
we're right but truth was never
in the cards
And now we travel
through the stars
I wanna see you tonight
but can't you see away
we're held in time
Onward we went
up to the sky
and now I wanna take you
to those in the light
c. Up, up, and away!
d. Where no man has gone before
e. Quantum Leap
I wanna see you
I wanna know you
Light will make you jump it through the shells
I would like to catch you in between
I wanna peep you
I wanna hold you
Until you come back again
To a discreet energy
Light will be created out of sight
in between the levels of the shells
f. Arrival
Now we break into the light
With deceleration fast
Time is critical
High is g-force
and I can't take it much longer
Now we're orbiting the sun
Results are almost coming through
Now I see it
Though how believe it
in time we'll piece it together
g. Lost in Space-Time
There's no one to receive
We're trapped in the distant past
Though time is relative
backwards ticking is weird
How could we ever be here?
No one to speak or to hear
A hundred million years past
Or could we be wrong?
All discoveries lost
Dinossaurs won't decode
Our messages for the future
can't be restored

The new live EP by Ryan W. Stevenson's project reminded me, that this debut album must have been gone down the wishlist... If instrumental Canterbury stuff is your thing, this should be a no-brainer. Firmly rooted in the past (late 60s, 70s), nevertheless with a fresh sound. Guests incude The Tangent's Andy Tillison and Soft Machine's Theo Travis. Carsten Pieper
A very pleasant album. Like other comments said, if you like the first Camel album (Moonmadness for exemple), you have to listen at this one. calm, relaxing are the first words that come to me
You can listen from the start to the end: it’s like a journey…. in the space! yodablanc
No one does music quite like Camille and Xavier do. I see their music as being akin to soundtracks for unfilmed movies. In this instance it is a movie about explorers of mountainous terrain, perhaps the terrain of our lives. Merci pour cette musique si intrigante. :-) sumbuk
got recc'd this on youtube and loved it- reminds me a lot of late 60's and early 70's records i used to hear playing out of my parents' stereo on sweltering summer days. OPAL
