Jonric: Would you tell us about the various influences that inspired or otherwise came to be reflected in these tracks, especially the main theme?
Inon Zur: Some of it was inspired by the sci-fi music of Jerry Goldsmith, but I was really trying to take orchestral elements into no man's land, so to speak, and then combine it with some weird non-orchestral ones, so it has a futuristic approach, but in a retro kind of way.
