Castles
in
Space
is
proud
to
present
The
Sound
of
Science.
Dean
explains
the
background
and
inspiration
for
the
album:
“The
idea
for
The
Sound
of
Science
had
been
in
my
head
for
a
number
of
years.
“Being
a
parent
of
young
kids
I
endured
a
lot
of
very
cliched
and
awful
children's
songs
that
were
attempting
to
combine
education
and
entertainment.
These
quickly
became
a
form
of
torture
to
me,
something
that
the
CIA
might
use
in
covert
operations
to
flush
out
a
drug
cartel
from
their
hideout.
It
became
apparent
that
there
was
a
desperate
need
for
informative
songs
and
music
that
were
appealing
and
bearable
for
both
children
and
their
parents.
“I
recruited
my
friend
Kevin
Pearce,
(who
I
have
produced
and
collaborated
with
on
various
projects
over
the
years),
to
bounce
ideas
off
and
who
could
put
together
a
nice
series
of
chords
and
could
sing!
Which
helps
when
writing
songs.
Kevin
is
from
an
acoustic
folk
background
and
I'm
more
of
a
one
finger
synth
player
in
the
Human
League
tradition.
I
thought
it
would
be
interesting
to
mix
the
folk
and
electronic
element
together
for
children’s
songs.
Something
that
harks
back
to
both
the
BBC
Radiophonic
Workshop
in
the
60's
and
70's
and
also
the
folk
songs
of
TV
programmes
like
Play
Away,
public
information
films
and
music
from
various
weird
and
oddball
kids
TV
from
that
era.
