BY THE BEARD OF OPS HIMSELF! I'm THE go to guy for new bands among my friends, the one who's into all the 'undiscovered' stuff in the metal world. I've had progressive sounds coming out of my arse since 1998 and I was the FIRST guy to say "I bet they'll do pretty well" when Haken put out their first album. And yet here this music is, amazing my ears for the first time and its been here 18 MONTHS! Damn you Sithu why didn't you tell me about this sooner!!!!
StarSystems, Plini, Sithu Aye, Modern Day Babylon, Animals as Leaders... I discovered all these bands/projects this year and I've never listen to such good music... Absolutely moving, all of them.
Seriously. This EP deserves a way better mix. You are incredibly talented man but it could be shining through so much more with a crisper mix. Dune is an outrageous tune.
Honestly, I feel like turning that final compressor to a smaller ratio would help. The volume dips every time the bass drum hits. That would let the cymbals shine more, it would relieve the crunch on the ambient tracks, and it would bring the guitars up too.
I've been listening to prog all my life and especially with in the past 10 years I know plini, modern day Babylon, covet, and so many other bands. But apparently UA-cam never put this in the algorithm until today. Smh this shit is off the chain! Guitar playing and tone is perfect. Drums sound amazing programmed or not idk but some complex parts there. Amazing 13/10
Good stuff, I like it for background music while I'm working. The only thing I don't much care for is the recording engineering, hopefully the CD is better and I'm hearing artifacts from compression.
Haha, I thought this would get brought up. I actually wrote this riff long before I'd heard of Polyphia, and one day I was showing it to my friend and he pointed out that it sounded really similar to the riff in James Franco. It actually got me pretty worried that it was going to sound like I ripped them off and I considered changing it up a bit for that reason. In the end I stuck with it though, and hey I wouldn't have discovered how great Polyphia was if it wasn't for that!
StarSystems Don't worry man, there's enough of a spread of genres/styles in here that anyone who accuses you of ripping off anyone in particular will make a fool of themselves.
StarSystems No matter what, there's always going to be similarity in the sound of music, there's so much of it out there. Either way, this is unique as fuck. At the beginning I sensed a similarity to some Children Of Bodom in all honesty haha. It's so good to listen to though, a mixture of relaxing and heavy at the same time. Kudos to you!
Listening to My favorite cd in my work truck today Paralax2 cranked up so loud and all I could hear was Space Pirates in my head ... .... well played .. well played .
This is such a good album! I discovered them literally yesterday and I am in love! Y'all need to get together with Arch Echo and Plini and make some mind-blowing shit!! I love you guys!
I'm reading a lot of comments on different vids...and not seeing Angel pop up. if you've never experienced Angel Vivaldi...check em out. great stuff. my favorite. but these guys...Owane, Sithu, Widek, all of em r pure badassery. I like how Starsystems has parts of their music sounding a lot like Children of Bodm without Alexi n vocals. I love instrumentals!
No tienen un link para descargar sus discos,,,porque yo no tengo tarjeta de credito,,,aca en Argentina soomos de clase media y el dinero no alcanza,. Saludos y Gracias.
Such beautiful music, really fantastic album!! It was an honor to play for it :)

good music but the mix is absolutely fucking HORRIBLE very disappointing in the production aspect
Seriously. This EP deserves a way better mix. You are incredibly talented man but it could be shining through so much more with a crisper mix. Dune is an outrageous tune.
Yeah the drum cymbals sound all wishy washy and the snare can hardly be heard at times.. Nice music though
This EP seriously needs a remaster...

A lot of people throw around the word "epic" nowadays, but this actually FEELS epic. Amazing work dudes.
It was a pleasure being involved on this release. Im a fan !!
you built the sky
Really awesome but the mix is too heavy on the base
Maybe your speakers are too heavy on the bass? ;)
Austin Welch No, it is just bass-heavy.
Austin Welch
no, it's definitely too bass heavy
Thanks for the inspiration. Astounding...
Quark= 23:38 :D Great !
The whole Album ist only one thing.... GENIOUS! Keep on man :)
Dune is legitimately one of the best prog songs I've heard in years. Fantastic work, dudes
I'm going stir crazy waiting for more music from you, this ep has been a huge inspiration to me! A+ work!
Thank you for this masterpiece!

Captivating...as always
Just discovering this today and totally dig this! (Thanks Matt Harnett for sharing!) Sounds fantastic!!
This is truly amazing. Thank you!
So glad you're on Spotify now. Awesome stuff
This is one of the best albums I discovered! Totally must buy
Carl Sagan. Nice lol
Good stuff, I like it for background music while I'm working. The only thing I don't much care for is the recording engineering, hopefully the CD is better and I'm hearing artifacts from compression.
19:58 the Polyphia is strong with this one.
Had that James Franco vibe haha.

StarSystems That's awesome, man! This whole EP is definitely unique and deserves a much wider audience!

needs waaaaaayyyyyy more views.
plini mark 4
this is amazingly good, it depresses me at the lack of views this has though, this deserves like 800k views and up tbh
why these guys are not all over the radio is beyond me. This is great driving music.
LeonRFpoa maybe sat radio?
normal radio has been dead for years.
This is beyond beautiful!
that flute synth @ 15:13 wow...really starting to like this album
Your music make me stay in the zone, to prepare my classes and to focus. I love it.
very great !! thank you :B
Great EP, I really like your first one, but this one just blow my mind!!!
Listening to My favorite cd in my work truck today Paralax2 cranked up so loud and all I could hear was Space Pirates in my head ... .... well played .. well played .
noice
Touhou project meets Periphery, check that intro.
Just saying
This is such a good album! I discovered them literally yesterday and I am in love! Y'all need to get together with Arch Echo and Plini and make some mind-blowing shit!! I love you guys!
Dude, the first solo on The Great Ocean at 19:58 is on point! awesome
21:15 fucking oath!!!!
Dune is straight up ecstasy. Excellent EP.
Great album! :D
how could I forget how great your music is?
What is this and HOW have I never heard of this band??!
MIND BLOWN truly beautiful!
I swear I had kneecaps at the beginning of this album.
killer
@StarSystems can I use all of this amazing music on gameplay videos? :D
I'm reading a lot of comments on different vids...and not seeing Angel pop up. if you've never experienced Angel Vivaldi...check em out. great stuff. my favorite. but these guys...Owane, Sithu, Widek, all of em r pure badassery.

....endless stream of ideas.....creativity overload 🤯
This music got PURPOSE🕯....thanks for sharing the beauty of your soul with anyone.
👋🇩🇪
The Great Ocean always makes me chill

Please add it to play music. I'd love to listen this while driving, but I couldn't find it there... :/
This is phenomenal, man!
This is amazing, got it on bandcamp, I hope you make more music in the future.
The only thing holding this back from being my favourite EP is the mix and production unfortunately, truly a magical mix of songs.
6:00, that piano is pretty incredible
Blown away by space pirates, the drums were lit
damn dude, I just can´t believe how good this is!!!
Sub and like. Good job guys I really dig the melody and the idea in general.
2:30 UHNF
Gotta admit I didn't think of putting a strat on an album like this but it works super well ngl
really great!!!
This is bloody brilliant!
WOW,This is truly special!! 😍
what a great album dude!
Amazing work man! Sooooo melodic I love it.
Strong Arch Echo vibes!
Sounds kinda like Touhou at times
holy shit! both your EPs are amazing!
would love to hear a Starsystems III EP.
+Teague Prower unfortunately, u wont be hearing it anywtime soon.
+Ankit Thapa do you know why? or is that just a guess?
either way, i guess waiting isn't a problem.
He is working on some other project.and wont be releasing the III ep for sometime. That is what he said on his fb.
Ankit Thapa that's fair. EPs like this probably take a fair amount of time to write and record too.
Don't worry. Check out his channel
Halo music right here
the music is awesome but the mix and eq is not that great
8:48
That is so Dream Theater.
What genre is this?
Amazing EP
gute shit
This: 2:27
+Jonathan Lin and then there's 12:00
