It's ironic that the decisive vibration of Jupiter tunings, a holistic metaphor for success and material abundance, was only used twice in all of SSO's recorded music.
The first one was a track on the PLANETS album simply called JUPITER. It starts with a great synth appegiator and a great deep atmospheric orchestral melody followed by a genius piano melody, before it turns into something that steadily leads the listener to an incredible guitar solo melody layered over a jumpy, funky bass line, brilliantly accented by a beautiful gongstroke. It was a very unusual track in the pre-techno age: romantic electronica. Nobody really knew what to do with it.
The only other SSO Jupiter track appeared on the Phantastische Phänomene Album from 1991. The track is called "In der Palmblatt Bibiliothek". It is a very likable and accessible piece. It has a smooth-floating meditative new-age timeless feel, that unveils a strong strain of true cosmic energy; the gong shimmers with a great floating feel accentuating the beautiful melody that is so typical of Steve Schroyder's genius for composition. He found a way to turn a pain-influenced pan flute madness into something truly beautiful. SSO invites you to enjoy this signature piece of cosmic octave music, I.D.P.B ("In der Palmblatt Bibiliothek"). It is one of those lost brilliant gems for posterity.
Actually, this track reminds experts of the Augenstern compositions that Steve co-wrote with Gene Gross in the pre-SSO times.
It seems funny in retrospect that Jupiter turned a blind eye and didn't shine it's light of prosperity and generous material manifestation on this project. Perhaps it's just a question of time.
