Just heard yesterday that Jack White’s new label is going to be releasing a 7" vinyl featuring a Carl Sagan-/Stephen Hawking-sampling tune. The record is inspired by the overwhelming success of a song uploaded (by a guy called Cosmos) to YouTube. To date, the video has more than 1.4 million views.
If you ever need evidence that we live in a totally bonkers era, re-read everything in that first paragraph. What an absurdly fantastic idea.
I first heard this track, “Glorious Dawn,” through the aforementioned YouTube video. It is everything that you would want it to be - catchy, educational, and hilarious. Three words: auto-tuned Stephen Hawking. Eat your heart out, Family Guy.
Seriously, words can’t really capture how pumped I am that this song is spawning an entire album of material. Stay tuned, I believe it’s dropping sometime in November.
Check out the awesome mashup video below:
