Track 0 - Odysseus - ODYZY-1

This track's id is Odysseus - ODYZY-1. This is the intro track to the set I'm putting together. It's an original composition using GB. I'm world-building, here, for my brand identity. Athena IV is the A.I. computer system/crew member that helps pilot ODYZY-1, the ship belonging to and flown by the 'fictional' Odysseus character I developed to help enliven my work as a DJ. There are 2 other (fictional) regular crew. I'm developing a plot-line, and drawings, as well as painted images, in order to show what each crew member, as well as the ship and its layout, looks like. Those are forthcoming, but, for now, this will have to do 😉 The idea is to develop something in the style of Gorillaz/Daft Punk, but, in my idiom. A fictional 'crew' and 'world' to explore progressive/melodic concepts and tell stories through my music. My plan is to develop my own animations (I am a painter and professional illustrator) that can run behind my sets during shows and at home YT sets. I'm also working on a consistent DJ 'look' that I can wear during shows and YT sets. Concept work/drawings and paintings of all of these elements of my brand identity has already begun, in earnest. More to come! I have an 'Odysseus Encyclopedia' where I record all my ideas and branding in order to keep the look and 'world' consistent (like I have done a million times, since I was... 5?). I'm not going to go too in depth, but, I want something that helps sell my work, my brand, my style, and my ideas, and make my sets richer and more interesting. Plus, I'm a decades-old storyteller... I was an illustrator and gamer, before I became a DJ. World-building, writing, etc., are my things. Been doing it since I can remember. Can't escape it, even now, I suppose... 🤷‍♂️ Gotsta be tellin' 'dose stories, yo 😂🤷‍♂️ That shit's gonna be awhile, yet, but, here's a snap-shot exploration in sound 😉 Helps me visualize.
