Colors form the basis of our visual world. It is without a doubt a small portion of information that the Universe provides us with in the entirety of the electromagnetic spectrum: radio waves, gamma, ultraviolet, microwaves, etc; all of which we are hardly aware of. That said, my interpretation of this mix combines more of the synæsthetic notions of the color in music..the texture and feel of the songs and words. It's mostly instrumental with a smorgasbord in genre, recent and older stuff too. Some themes are provided with Rosa’s dream descriptions: “grazing in the grass”. The artwork is much more to do with the strange dreams for example: eggs, mythical creatures such as King Kong and of course the Hot Tub Time Machine (pictured). No doubt the Hot Tub Time Machine will absorb you in the swirling globular particle-wave fields of chrono-synclastic infundibula and spit you out into a physical materialization in music. Bon-appetit!
