This is the rare "out of print" first version of the CD, with different tracks and different music on it.
I worked with short sound samples from Axel Engstfeld's documentary film "Antarctica project" on the tracks "white out", "the big nail" and "a great continent". In "a great continent" I used excerpts from Engstfeld's interview with Michael T. Halbouty, chairman of the Antarctica treaty. I would like to thank Axel Engstfeld for his permission, to use special material from his film. This film and Martin Burckhardt's radio play "bis ans ende der welt" have given me inspiration and musical ideas.

This was the last CD by Kerr so far. Melodic and catchy tunes, that makes you think and dream...

This electronic musician only released two CDs. The music is full of emotions and melodies and some Jarre and John Kerr styles.

Artist: John Stanford
P: 1999
Between the spaces of ambient space and ambient elctronica is a world of rythmic elctronic music like Xylon, Stryke and Chicane. John Stanford joins the powerful positive energizing world of cool grooves, enlightening melodies and inventive transforming flow of continual trance-like journey through the extensive and fulfilling pieces. Deep Space is not a space ambient album, as the title may suggest, but does fulfill an act of atmosphere and energy. The astronauts voices over the radio are spliced in as not annoying voices, but well crafted tones which add to the overall piece (especially with "Sea of Tranquility"). Stanford has reached the strong level of mixing electronic dance music into the cool areas of energizing yet relaxing atmosphere. The more jazz style chords in "Aurora" to the thrusting energy of "Far Centaurus" make this album a wonderful driving album as well as the well added addition to the ever-changing powerful world of electronic music.
