Although they are not genuine concept albums, there is always a specific idea running like a red line through the whole production of an BACK TO THE MOON album.

Street View

A camera is observing an ATM machine to keep robbers away. But also in super markets, at public places, even in busses and trains surveillance cameras are watching and recording. The vision of total supervision from George Orwell's novel „1984“ became reality decades later in a more subtle way. Mobile phones, GPS, satellites: „Big Brother is watching you“ every where.

That's what this album is all about, beginning with the ironical "Wave and smile" and ending with the sound collage of "Street View" which is also a tribute to Thirsty Moon's "Big City". No wonder sometimes gloomy sounds appear. BACK TO THE MOON is using mostly synthesizers and sampling technology, but the electric guitar and some vocal parts also belong to the powerful and diversified sound of the whole album.
