When the kidnapping of a child brings a trio
of old space war buddies back together to foil the crime, they unearth a
greater evil, one that threatens to rock the galaxy! How strong is Semper
Fidelity when the stakes involve the corruption of honor? A unique
collaboration between musical maestro Glenn Adams and sci-fi storyteller
Matt Howarth. A thrilling graphic story in full color–and 55 minutes of
exciting music inspired by the tale–all together on the same
CD-R(elease) by SynGate Records.

Here at Keyboard Central, Galactic Anthems’ grand, synth-orchestrated
project is a new one for us — a comic book soundtrack. Bringing to mind
Amin Bhatia’s Interstellar Suite, Semper Fidelity uses older instruments
like the Yamaha DX7 and E-mu Proteus 1 and 2, as well as soft synths like
Native Instruments Absynth and Atmosphere to create an engrossing soundscape
that’s majestic, fun, intense, and campy — in other words, perfect comic
book accompaniment. Speak of the devil, the enhanced CD comes with PDF files
of a full-color comic tale, created by sci-fi storyteller Matt Howarth.
Reading and listening simultaneously is an engaging, trippy experience for
sure. For crafting great mood music — and using it in a quirky,
entertaining context — Galactic Anthems (a.k.a. electronic artist Glenn
Adams) is Keyboard’s Unsigned Artist of the Month.
