Tasman Axeman is creating sci-fi story that's also a concept album.
The end goal is a full multimedia book paired with a concept album — all original music.
Sound-wise, think "Classic Rock meets Vangelis"
By building a science fiction universe, and telling its story through original music and writing, you get a Space-Rock Adventure in Music 🚀

I have always been fascinated by space, exploration, and the sheer strength of character it takes to venture into the unknown. Parallel to that passion is my love for massive orchestral arrangements and powerful symphonic rock. Combining these worlds into a concept album has been a lifelong dream—one sparked decades ago by the immersive sonic landscapes of albums like Dark Side of the Moon.
Thanks to the incredible power of modern audio tools, I finally decided to step up to the console and just start writing.
To my deepest satisfaction, this journey has become more fulfilling than I ever imagined. My digital audio workstation is no longer just a place of work; it has transformed into a launchpad for discovering new worlds, intricate storylines, and compelling characters, all brought to life through the lyrics and music of each track.
I hope you enjoy the voyage!
