The Repair of the Space Time Continuum – Mike Templar

Embark on a mind-bending journey through the fabric of time and space with Mike Templar's latest musical marvel, 'The Repair of the Space Time Continuum.' set for release on Jan 19th, 2024. Ever felt like the last decade took a detour into an alternate reality, a glitch in the matrix that led us down an unexpected and surreal path? Mike Templar not only senses it but dives headfirst into this cosmic enigma, exploring themes that have woven into our collective consciousness. The album poses gripping questions about love, perception, the human condition, and our place in the universe – a profound exploration of a reality gone astray.

In this funky science fiction odyssey, Templar seamlessly blends Funk, Electro, Synthwave, Jazz, and a dance-infused euphoria, creating an indelible fusion that resonates with the soul. The inclusion of guest vocalists Strike Eagle, Kal-Elle Jagger, and Kaarin Zoe Lee adds a dynamic layer to the sonic tapestry, elevating the album to unparalleled heights. As you delve into the tracks, you'll find yourself immersed in a universe ripe with potential, yet marred by a dark and uncertain journey that mirrors our own reality.

Describing the album proves to be a daunting task, for it transcends mere words. A homage to 80s new wave and electro-pop pioneers, 'The Repair of the Space Time Continuum' weaves samples from iconic films like Blade Runner, TRON, and Logan's Run, creating a musical mosaic that defies categorization. Templar's musical genius shines through, beckoning you to experience the full spectrum of his creativity firsthand.

Amidst the pulsating beats and futuristic sounds, one obscure influence stands out – Yellow Magic Orchestra, particularly evident in the track 'Locked In.' Whether intentional or a product of interpretation, it adds a delightful layer to the album, reminiscent of YMO's Tong Poo. A nod to the past, an homage to the pioneers, it's a detail that brings a smile to the faces of those who recognize the subtle brilliance.

'The Repair of the Space Time Continuum' isn't just another concept album for Mike Templar; it's a revelation that dawned upon him in a dream, much like Paul McCartney's 'Yesterday.' Conceived as 'Doors of Perception,' played on an old piano in a dreamy basement by a furniture mover, this album's genesis is as mysterious as the themes it explores. Two years of meticulous work birthed this conceptual tour de force, a brilliant opus that beckons you to return week after week, month after month, year after year. A spooky and awe-inspiring beginning unfolds into a symphony of brilliance that defies the boundaries of time and space.
