Thomas Bergersen - Cruising in Space

[@mtcelticharper]

Merethe's vocals are literally out of this world.

[@dvdmakinson]

i agree totally.

[@theregalproletariat]

Love how it starts off casual. Funky, with bit of choir. And you think: "Yeah, I'm cruising in space". And then at 1:12, it just kicks 3 gears up. The sound hits you, wraps around you with its rising tones and you realise: "Okay, NOW I'm cruising in space. This is a whole new level, and I'm speechless." There's a lot of space-themed stuff in the world - and this helped me rerealise just how awe-inspiring space travel actually is.

[@witherschat]

Yeah, 1:12 is like "Turn hyperdrive on!"

[@RichardDames]

One of my SUPER, SUPER FAVOURITE tracks from HUMANITY ALBUM! I am and HAVE BEEN a SUPER HUGE ADDICT of Thomas Bergersen music since 2010. A single song I will play OVER a HUNDRED TIMES, as the addiction is SO HIGH! I can't stop till I'm delirious and my ears can't take it anymore. TSFH music is MY SOURCE OF LIFE! Nothing can touch it or BEAT IT for QUALITY and SUREALISM!

[@Helloworld-ss5uv]

I love the entire Humanity Ch 4 album (and pretty much every piece I’ve ever had the privilege of hearing from TSFH) so much! But this track is one of my particular favorites. The synthesizer matches with Merethe’s voice so flawlessly and along with the choir, the percussion, the electric guitar, and the orchestral aspects, they all blend together and complement each other so beautifully! If I could sum this track up in one word, I would choose EXHILARATION. It’s almost as if the listener is traveling throughout the universe at the speed of light; witnessing supernovae, the formation of new stars and galaxies, mysterious and interesting moons and planets, black holes, comets, and all the other amazing and incredible phenomena and sights that outer space has to offer. And maybe even finding other forms of life along the way. In a way I feel like words cannot express my admiration and love for this piece, yet here we are.

[@Danielrjb97]

You explained it like as it is!

[@dmacbass]

Seems like Thomas should be tapped to score Star Trek: Strange New Worlds?

[@dvdmakinson]

im getting old 57, the the best track of all time.

[@kaitlynwickham6237]

It's impossible for me to be unhappy after listening to this song. There's some magic to it that takes me right out of any bad mood. One of Thomas's best!

[@RichardDames]

TOTALLY AGREE! feel EXACTLY the same way!

[@m.s.9158]

I still remember back in September, when I stayed awake to listen to the album as it released on Spotify. No other song since Impossible (maybe with the exceptions of Return to Sender and We Are Legends) made me feel so much emotion and awe. I am legitimately speechless and no words can express my appreciation for this masterpiece.

[@witherschat]

"I still remember back in September, when I stayed awake to listen to the album as it released on Spotify." Are you me?

[@rutgerkerpel306]

What about 'Unbreakable'? That was from 2019 right? I really like that one, even if it's composition is nothing extraordinary and it's a shame the track is so short... Oh and an honorable mention for 'Race to Durango', when I first heard that one I was filled with happiness while I was riding my bike, after seeing the track name I was surprised, how can one make a race, sound this epic? xD

[@ProudTarjaholic]

How about 'Never Give Up On Your Dreams'? I felt like that one was way more special than 'Impossible'. Matter of taste, I guess, but I surely agree with you on this one 😉 As well as 'We Are Legends' btw.

[@rendratvandonkereschrijver2912]

Well I still feel "Heart" was one of his best masterpieces

[@verum117]

Mountain call

[@monemusic1428]

Similar melody to Unbreakable Similar guitars to We Are Legends Similar synths to Arcade Master Thomas combined 3 of his best tracks into one, and the result is out of this world.

[@hammamraihanmohammad7164]

Similar chord progression to Star Sky

[@BlueRoses345]

This is some of the best music I've ever listened to!!!! How can a man only keep getting better and better at this?!?! Thomas you're a genius!!!!

[@AudioArcturia]

This honestly might be one of my favorite Thomas tracks ever made. It has a little bit of everything, I can't even fixate on a single part of the song that's my favorite because it flows so beautifully between the different moods and intensities. This is shit you can dance to.

[@retro420]

Agree!

[@witherschat]

"I can't even fixate on a single part of the song that's my favorite" Me neither, but one is stuck in my head LMAO.

[@josiahhatch7027]

Merethe’s voice blending seamlessly into the electric guitar at 6:25 will always give me chills!

[@LuEpic-ox3wp]

6:53 acustic orgasm for me

[@RichardDames]

WOW! There's just NO WORDS to describe what Merethe does with her VOICE! her voice is MIND BLOWING!!! This WHOLE piece of music is SUPER MIND BLOWING! The DRUMS, SYNTHISER, BASS, STRINGS, PIANO, CHOIR,....There's just NO WORDS to describe this SUPER KICK ASS MUSIC! None! It's OUT of this world! Only a SUPER MUSIC GENIUS can create a SUPER MASTER PIECE like this.

[@realBlueMoonMusic]

This reminds of your older pieces, especially at the end. However, unlike what people would USUALLY say after sumn like that, your new music is still fantastic. Old or new, it's an honor to have a chance to listen to.

[@snarf1504]

The Humanity stuff is more experimental and creative, so it's bound to take a little while before you can fully take it in. When it does hit, though...

[@NaVIIctory]

One of my favourite with our vocal goddess. 😊

[@cadepeppley9430]

I just clicked on the video solely for the purpose of saying this song SLAPS. Have a good day everyone, and especially you Mr. Bergersen for giving us this absolute godsend of a track.

[@Living_Life_RN]

Man, it really amazes me how you can pump music like this out soo quickly. You can tell a lot of effort has been put into this from the start.

[@snarf1504]

That's what suprises me about Thomas as well. Not only does he write at such an high level, he does so incredibly fast! For example, Heart of Courage was written in a day. That's A Wrap, a 10 minute piece of complex music, took only a week to compose, orchestrate and produce (!).

[@theawesomesausage]

Thomas: "I sent the track to Merethe for fun, and I honestly didn't expect to get an answer. No human should be able to sing this" Merethe: "And I took that personally"

[@ianmiller6040]

Or it's a confession that she *isn't* human.... ;)

[@nesra2139]

Clearly my favorite of the album! Another masterpiece from Thomas and Merethe Soltvedt🙂

[@TheMursk]

One million voices had a few years headstart, but cruising in space will eventually catch up with 30 million views and to infinity and beyond

[@firemetal9655]

Thomas puts so much depth into his music. I usually listen to music on full blast for obvious reasons, but I have found, listening to this one in particular, that it sounds much different when I listen to it at a lower volume, and there are a lot of subtleties that I miss by blasting it at full volume. Truly a work of art.

[@PaintingWinterMusic]

This perfectly depicts the joy of hurtling through space and time and watching the universe change around you. A mixture of roaring excitement and soft wonder. There are also some strong similarities between this and “Unbreakable” . . . I wonder if there’s any meaning behind that.

[@rubytuesday2682]

Yeah it sounds a lot like Unbreakable!

[@Milch793]

At first I was sceptical when I read your comment, but you are right. Listening directly after to Unbreakable changed my mind. I could imagine that we are cruising in space with planet earth being our vehicle. Maybe the earth is unbreakable? Maybe the fact that the earth is cruising is unbreakable? I don't know. This just comes to my mind when I try to think about that.

[@PaintingWinterMusic]

@@Milch793 Those are some interesting ideas! Maybe humanity's determination to explore space is unbreakable? Maybe it means that nothing will stop us from venturing into the stars ?

[@hammamraihanmohammad7164]

To me, it is more similar to Star Sky (?)

[@jucaesar4961]

Unbreakable played right after this one in one of the KZbin-generated playlists for me, and I thought, I just heard that one! I was like "What a rip-off!!", and then I looked a bit into the different release times, which made me believe that this one must be some kind of remix of different pieces, idk.

[@vit.budina]

In a long time, I've been listening to this album, I was able to build up a whole story that wraps all the pieces together: *Space for Rent:* The story starts with the history of humanity's astronomical discoveries: Gallileo Galilei having a first-ever peek at the stars and other heavenly bodies through a telescope, the uncertainty of whether the Earth, the Sun, or something else is the centre of the universe, the rovers sending us the first information about what the surface of other planets is like. *Apollo:* The score describes the flight of Apollo 11, as it is about to become one of the biggest milestones of mankind. *Rocket to the Moon:* This track translates the emotions of the crew aboard one of the newest and greatest ships, the goal of which is to build the first moon habitats for long-term living and research. From now on, a lot is happening: *Cruising in Space:* Suddenly, as the intro at the beginning of Cruising in Space foreshadow, something is happening: an unknown, indescribably beautiful ship approaches. The crew is unknowingly boarding the ship, as they lose contact with Earth. It all feels like a fever dream. 0:43 Suddenly, an abstract figure, distantly resembling a human body, approaches. 0:57 All of our earthlings are given a device, that, as they slowly realize, helps them understand the writings and voices on the new spacecraft. 1:12 Suddenly, the ship starts moving. 1:41 Another abstract figure comes towards them, escorting them to what seems to be the bridge of the ship. They see several other figures monitoring the flight. 2:10 Out of the blue, the walls flash white, and a voice is heard, however, there are no words. Soon after, they realize it was a safety warning in preparation before light-speed engines kicked in: 2:24 The stars are flying by, stretching into longer and longer lines. 3:08 One of the figures (the one they met first), steps forward. It starts showing them holograms of what their race has managed to learn about our species, and, despite having no distinct face, seems very happy and honoured to meet us in person. 3:30 The ship slows down, flying past several Earth-like planets. Our astronauts are in awe watching this beautiful scenery never shown to a human eye. 3:43 The voice is back, this time, as our travellers presume, informing them of further slowing down. 4:12 The voice is here again. This time, however, they feel like something bad is about to happen. 4:26 The ship enters a belt of debris that is orbiting around one of the bigger planets. It doesn't sound good. The figures seem to be off-put too. 4:56 It's the voice again, this time sounding very stressful. The travellers see a large asteroid that is for sure on a collision course with the ship. 5:10 It seems like there's nothing that can be done to avoid the crash. The asteroid is getting closer and closer. 5:41 Suddenly, the light-speed engines start the ship jerks a bit. The asteroid is nowhere to be seen. They survived. 6:39 The ship slows down a bit. It is apparently replenishing charge in the lightspeed engines. 6:53 Ship speeds back up, as it goes faster and faster. Everyone is relieved that nothing bad happened. 7:22 The ship is slowing down, as the figures show signs of happiness. Through the windows, a big planet with vast oceans and broad lands can be seen. It seems to be their home planet. I will probably continue the story when the next score comes out just so I can time-stamp it.

[@TheResoluteHawk]

This whole story fits; especially since Thomas stated that the narrative behind Cruising In Space was the synth and Merethe talking to each other (human and alien).
