@@scottgillespie2690 Yes! It is something Breen is mumbeling about when you enter his office at the top of the citadel. But you're right! This could also something be, Carl Sagan has said. The TV Show Cosmos and the Game Half-Life, they both have a special place in my heart!
@@scottgillespie2690Scott, this is Carl Sagan, checking in from beyond the grave, billions of light years away from our planet. I’m here & there, in the ether, to thank you for the invocation ✨
You got it backwards because Icon was released in 1984 and Metroid was developed and released after that. Hirokazu Tanaka was the composer of Metroid's 'soundtrack' and he either knowingly or subconciously was influenced by the O'Neil track you reference and or his album. But I am sure Tanaka was not in any way being deceptive.
Keith Fullerton Whitman turned me on to O’Neill in the early 2000s but I’m most grateful as I haven’t listened to Icon in years. Have audio files still on a hdd somewhere. Very excited to learn it was released in 2017 - thank you for the refresher it’s (proper) acquisition time ☺️
Apparently you have an amazing Electronic Music collection on cassette and I would bet that the majority of this stuff has never been released on CD. Very rare
There is an alternative title to this album: "My poor Irish parents ate only potatoes and limited their whiskey consumption to a bottle a day each to save money to buy me a synthesizer- here are the Results".

What's this from?
Sounds like Carl Sagan. Maybe Cosmos from the 80s?
Nvm it’s from HalfLife.

I always loved albums on cassettes. YT is a mine for any EM fans.
Let's support the artists and those who put some light on them.
Somebody set this phaser on stunningly brilliant
Thanks
Big fan of vintage synth music. This is absolutely great!!

Fantastic find!
Indeed one of the best you have archived. Hey, algorithm- take this ‘engagement’ and do your thing.
Best vibes on this. Really magic. ✨
I feel reconnected with my inner self. A warm massage to my soul. Thanks !
This is one of my favs youve archived, this is just plain sonic heaven
Missing the front cover in full screen .Thank you for the album .
Hey wait ... first track has the same melody as NES Metroid's title screen 😮 Wonderful piece of synth music here.

A rare gem, thank you for sharing.
Very nice 👌
Excellent!

Do you remember it? 😅
Wooooow, Is great. Es muy bueno esto, muy espacial
I have been absorbed by the mother ship...
😊❤
Only Peel would have aired this, I hope he did!
soooooo niiiiiice
c bon sa
If it was first released in 1984, how is this a “1983 reissue”? Is he a time traveler?😂
I think that's because this was actually recorded in 1983, but you could be onto something here
@@TremblingBeauty Hehe
At first I thought I was listening to Rush 2112.
Anyone know if this is the same Kevin O’Neill as the comics artist (2000AD, Marshall Law, League of Extraordinary Gentlemen amongst others)?

My upvote downvote analyzer must be broken 'cause there's no way this only has downvotes
People REALLY do not like this album
Kevin is Welsh, not Irish
You are right! Updated the description :) thank you
FAKE!
Bollocks! I bought this cassette when it first came out 1984
