Episode 33 Tara in the Neighborhood with Joe Steven
<p> When Elon moved one of his launch sites to Brownsville his vision for space travel inspired our whole community. Joe Steven, a local composer created a composition based on the story of a human's first trip to Mars and his interpretation of how it would feel using music as his form of expression. I am not surprised Joe's new composition was inspired by space travel since Space X started their operations in Boca Chica the entire Valley began to really see our place in the World and beyond. </p> <p>Joe discusses "his why". "Why" he creates his art. Is your music inspired or channeled????.....</p> <p>The music in Starman has no words it is instrumental and Joe explains why he chose to let the music stand alone. We discuss the energy of music, vibration, and purpose-driven work. </p> <p>We discuss extraterrestrials and Joe's take on the possibility of life in other life forms on other planets. "WE are searching for what the Truth Is"...Joe Steven</p> <p> </p> <p>You can find Joe at </p> <p>website: JoeSteven.com</p> <p> @JoeStevenMusic</p> <p>In the final few minutes, you can hear a small excerpt from Joe's album</p> <p> </p> <p>Enjoy </p> <p> </p> <p>Tara </p> <p>Tara in the Neighborhood</p>
