This is a rather unusual moment for me.

For the first time in the history of Futureworld Orchestra, I’m sharing music from a major upcoming project long before its official release. Normally, I tend to keep things very close until the moment everything is fully finished and ready to enter the world. So giving away material this personal and valuable at such an early stage honestly feels both exciting and slightly unreal to me.

But I wanted people (you) arriving here
to become part of the journey itself.

And this is only the beginning.

The track itself has a deeply personal origin.

As a twelve-year-old boy, I was completely fascinated by the Apollo missions, space travel, and the idea that humanity was capable of reaching beyond Earth itself. Those moments stayed with me throughout my life. Decades later, while working on this project, those memories unexpectedly resurfaced in a powerful way.

What makes this even stranger is that while mixing this track, the Artemis II mission preparations were unfolding in real time — and I found myself following every development almost obsessively, just as I had done as a child during the Apollo era. Somehow, the past and the future started blending together while the music was taking shape.

At this point, it’s still uncertain whether this exact version will ultimately appear on the final album. I currently have a large number of tracks in development, and the project itself continues evolving almost daily. Certain original NASA communication fragments used in this version may also change later due to rights considerations.

But for now, this is the version I wanted you to experience.
