Mimika - The Earthlings (From A Place Glowing A Brilliant Red) by MAK MURTIĆ published on 2013-11-24T21:46:38Z This track is the 11th and last movement of the upcoming theatrical album dubbed "A Place Glowing a Brilliant Red" about a future human society on Mars. Storyboard of this tune is as follows: A Martian ship in the future is exploring Earth (these Martians actually descend from Earthlings but are unaware of their ancestors) . As they come close to Earth with their spaceship they send data and other messages back to Mars. Soon they realise Earth's orbit is full of artificial garbage and they are hit by one of the metal objects stuck in a practically infinite orbit. They fall and burn up in Earth's atmosphere. They say their last goodbye to Mars whilst realising this is actually where they come from, therefore they are ashes and dust. For those interested, a strong reference for the album is Jared Diamond's book Collapse and Robert Zubrin's dreamy idea of a Terraformed Mars. The soloists are Andrew Linham on Clarinet and Sam Warner on Trumpet. Mimika MME is a multicultural London based modern jazz orchestra. It has been described as a mixture of Sun Ra, Balkan music, theatre, Duke Ellington and Hypnotic Brass Ensemble. Their lead vocal has been dubbed the "Croatian Flora Purim" and one of the reviews called their musical style "Balkan Space Jazz". Mimika played on the London Jazz Festival 2012, the Olympic Festivals, and regularly gigs on London's underground and overground scenes.
