Neelix & Z-Cat - 1984

I met Yana (Z-Cat) after 16 years in the same scene for the first time and it was an instant friendship. So we decided „Lets do a song together“. That was almost three years ago but finally here is the song. Ten years ago I was listening to one of the best songs ever made in our scene, it was „Ticon 1987“. You have no idea how it felt to listen to this tune for the first time. This release now is a homage to Ticons wonderfull art and at the same time a critical view through the eyes of George Orwell like he showed us in his book „1984“ which was released in 1949. Art is not only there to enjoy, often it has a mission as well, in this case it wants to show some possible risks hiding underneath the colorful hi gloss surface of Ai and self thinking, self driving machines. Surly it makes some things more comfortable for us but for what cost. Are we really aware of what this trent and this technology can take away from us? What if art at some point is no longer made by humans but made by computers?! Musik, movies, paintings just everything is now made by machines and algorithms. People were created to be loved. Things were created to be used. The reason why the world is in chaos is because things are being loved and people are being used. Everything you don’t want will become worst, so better think about the good! Thank you Yana for this great collaboration.
