Charles Andrew Bates

Imaginary Journey:

A collection of multi genre instrumentals inspired by places, emotions, thoughts and ideas of my own imagination. Musical styles range from ambient to rock to take the listener to exotic places like the jungles of Gliese some 20 light years away and to the country roads and honky tonks on Earth. Travel from India to the northern hemisphere and to imaginary places in between. Get lost and go drifting into space and return to Earth to ride a circus carousal. Relax, sit back, close your eyes and take off on this Imaginary Journey with me.

Space Radio Suite:

The story begins late one winters night when I was tuning my old 1920’s vintage TRF radio receiver to its highest frequency ranges. Modified and coupled to a LNB equipped deep dish antenna and hacked into one of the governments secret interstellar search satellite systems I came across several audio transmissions believed to be of extra-terrestrial origin. The names of the four audio transmissions were changed to help conceal their origins in fear of government confiscation.

Final Days:

After the war that wiped out nearly all humanity, two people meet on a seaside boardwalk and come across a damaged community piano in front of a bombed out music store. Finding whats left of an old guitar with a couple of broken strings and the piano with several missing keys they attempt to create a peaceful and tranquil melody. With waves kissing the scorched beach in the background they realize these are the Final Days.
