It is the year 3000. Humankind has overcome what many in the 21st century deemed impossible. The world is at relative peace, global warming has been stopped, hunger vanquished. Society enjoys nearly unlimited energy from giant photovoltaic arrays that have been launch into orbit around the earth.
Meet Dr. Kilometers and his associate Grommet X – this is the infamous duo who are responsible for cracking the Temporal Matrix and developing chrono-phase travel. When they’re not tracking the varoius inter-chrono travelers or tweaking various time dilators at ChronoLabs, these two experiment with hydrosonic soundwave generating devices to creat a musical style previously known as Instrumental Surf Rock Music.
Due to the heavy focus on progressive science, art forms, let alone archaic art forms, are rarely experimented with. Experimenting with actual music in it’s electromagnetic state - the way that Dr K. and GrmtX do in their free time - is on its way to extinction.
Meanwhile…unknown to Dr. Kilometers and his assistant Grommet X, their supervisor Skyles Angstrom runs a top secret division of ChronoLabs, with a mission to reintroduce art and music back into the 31st century. After walking in on an electromagnetic surf jam session one day, Skyles allots Dr. K and GrmtX some time in chrono-phase travel with his supervision to collect analog recordings and instrumentation for artistic inspiration.
Grommet X sets the time-space destination to 1963 and in an area that was called Huntington Beach. Giga-amps of electricity are loaded into the thousands of ultra-capacitors that power the ChronoLabs 4D TravL deck, Skyles initiates phase the sequence and ....
They blaze through space-time -
Up-down-left-right-back-forward -
All frequencies of light and sound saturate their ears and retinas. But what is this shadow? A lag in speed? Now a jolt -.
“There!”
They look and notice a bright spot with a humanoid profile. As the brave time travelers adjust to their new surroundings they notice that they are not alone and they do not seem to be in Huntington Beach.
After his lungs adjust to the relatively carbon and sulfur rich atmosphere Dr. Kilometers, with chronal streaks still burnt in his eyes, turns to this time traveling piggy-backer, What manner of being are you? How have you managed to intercept our space-time route!”
The time-jacker replies, “Greetings! I am Mycroft Eloi.”
“So nice to meet you,” replies Skyles offering his hand.
Grommet X pipes in at this point. “From a quick scan and analysis of the RF data flowing
about us, I believe we are in San Francisco, circa 2007 AD.”
Almost simultaneously Dr. Kilometers and Skyles Angstrom exclaim “WTF?!!!” .....t.b.c.
Thanks for finding us! We'll be down in the bay area on tour later this year, sometime early October. Out tour dates will start getting posted as they are confirmed soon. Great tunes, hope to see you there!
