Neil Degrasse Tyson Vs Mr Piper - The Most Astounding Fact

After watching the amazing Neil Degrasse Tyson video - 'The most astounding fact' edited by Max Schlickenmeyer. It inspired me to write some music and make a video for it.

My goal was to convey the beauty of our planet and to remind us we are also in something much more amazing - the infinity awesome universe (and trippy triangular owl hyperspace portals of course ;) ). So this retro-sci-fi-synth-sitar creative combo is the result.

(Sorry it's not crispy HD btw. In hindsight I wish I used higher res clips but it was just for fun...) If u wanna watch it less compressed you can download it below.

Special thanks to Tarekith for mastering the track for me :

And thanks to my amazing housemates who had to put up hearing this tune on repeat for the last month!
