The Mesmerizing Music of Star Trek #MusicMonday @StarTrek #StarTrek
The first time I saw an episode of Star Trek I was with my mom, in the living room of our house in Richmond, California. I don’t remember the episode, but I do remember the music.
Here’s a nice write up on startrekrenegades on the music of Star Trek, name checking the composes from over the years:
Beyond the TV Series theme songs, there was the weekly episode music, created by some of the best names you can find; from Gerald Fried who wrote the Fight Theme music from “Amok Time”, to Jay Chattaway, the creator of the all too familiar flute melody we love, from “The Inner Light”.
Oh, and I do remember the episode. It was The Man-Trap and it scared the bejeezus out of me.
Stop breadboarding and soldering – start making immediately! Adafruit’s Circuit Playground is jam-packed with LEDs, sensors, buttons, alligator clip pads and more. Build projects with Circuit Playground in a few minutes with the drag-and-drop MakeCode programming site, learn computer science using the CS Discoveries class on code.org, jump into CircuitPython to learn Python and hardware together, or even use Arduino IDE. Circuit Playground Express is the newest and best Circuit Playground board, with support for MakeCode, CircuitPython, and Arduino. It has a powerful processor, 10 NeoPixels, mini speaker, InfraRed receive and transmit, two buttons, a switch, 14 alligator clip pads, and lots of sensors: capacitive touch, IR proximity, temperature, light, motion and sound. A whole wide world of electronics and coding is waiting for you, and it fits in the palm of your hand.
