Behold and behold a world built of magnificence – a universe that has brought Western Canada and Western Germany together in a moment of epic glamour where Jordana Moon (aka Jordana Kalenova) meets Tom Aries (alias Galaxy of Night) albeit in unexpected ways and the rest, as they say, is history – but one thing stands out from their history; it’s not just coincidental history, it’s history with a natural and deep connection that makes it stick – Jordana Moon is an accomplished singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist who can play the piano, acoustic guitar, bass guitar, electric guitar, mandolin, ukulele, and violin. She also studied creative writing at Vancouver Film Music and performed in musical theater and jazz bars. Tom Aries, on the other hand, is an electronic synthesizer artist, songwriter, and producer with a substantial compositional background and classical piano expertise. His imagination knows no bounds, and he draws extensively on synth sounds from the 1980s to create astonishing symphonic sounds that transcend the lyrical and melodic boundaries of any one designated genre magnificently!
Their deep connection and love for telling their stories through music ensured that everything fell into place effortlessly, and what they bring to the table is more than just music; it’s passion reimagined and the fantastic retro sound blended with the past reminiscent synth pop painted with trip hop and colored with that futuristic vibe in what they have come to describe as “Synth Pop Opera.” They emerge from the shadows of light, holding some light against their faces, creating a near-mystic scene, and the shimmering light illuminates the words “Arrival” – this is the musical expedition that tells a story of resoluteness through some dark alleys full of darkness and horror, the philosophy and prophecies speak of a better future, and glimpses towards it have been offered. Each person picks their own tale, and in the end, we are all joined by a single shining vision!

The touch of “Pink Moon” for delight means far more to the fainting heart than shelter and bread, for shelter is gone when the night is done and bread only lasts a day, but the unending melodicism of “Pink Moon” and Moon’s calming voice sing on in the soul forever!
“Toxic City” transports you to the 1980s, conjuring up mental images in black and white while providing a superb insight with a strikingly efficient euphonious beat that will profoundly move you and its delivery soothingly touching you!

The absolute fantasy being presented in her pure and heavenly singing, while the two musical cats offer a union that will last!
“Glory Attack” attacks gloriously, offering a tangled yet lovingly arranged rhythmic sound that speaks of an enchantment that only nature can provide, while a mystical wisp of melody slowly migrates from towards the surrounding melodic mountains.
“Lost in Separate Worlds” is a philosophical sound offering an authentic sense of melody and as you listen in taking in and marveling at the unforgettable and absorbing harmony that envelop you over a bizarre, beautiful and marvelous tuneful adventure.
The entire album is a sight to behold, with exotic delights rhythmically, harmonically, and melodically. Aries’ extraordinary composition meets creative songwriting, complemented by Moon’s exquisite vocal performance. Welcome to the Moon and Aries universes!
