Decaying Orbit is an experimental, unorthodox, highly diverse & genre-splitting band from Texas led by their infamous front man Mike Ash. "No, this music's not about that, it's not about sound quality, it's about passion." - Mike Ash. Decaying Orbit is produced by their label, Decaying Enterprises Productions and has released many studio albums since they formed in 2008, after the violent break up of the Psychedelic Rock band, Strangefire, of which Mike was the former front man. Decaying Orbit believes in unadulterated musical & creative freedom, Mike describes their music as a "cathartic purge" or "nervous break downs caught on tape.". The band believes that creating music is a sacred, spiritual and magical art form brought to them by the Muses, wraiths and demons hidden just beyond the veil between the worlds of the physical and spiritual realms. Decaying Orbit has traveled beyond the veil and into the realms of the spirits, only to reemerge, like a caterpillar from it's cocoon emerging as a beautiful butterfly, so does Decaying Orbit get reborn through the fire of their cacophonous tunage. The band believes in complete freedom of lifestyle, I.E. sexuality, religion, spirituality, drugs, manner of dress etc. They believe that music is an interstellar language that needs no translation to be understood by absolutely anyone. It's the passion behind the emotions found in the music that matters to Decaying Orbit, they believe that integrity is more important than fortune or fame. This is our Decaying Orbit & we do hope that you will N'Joy tha' show!!!!

Story behind the song
This is a shockingly poppy and almost silly little tune that I wrote and recorded at the Mad Lab Studios in 1998 during the sessions for my album, "Sugar Child Of The Night". I have always had a special fondness for this tune, I just REALLY like it a LOT!!! It was written not too long after my Tom Cat that I had had my ENTIRE life(literally - he was 18 and I had we had not ever been apart in those 18 years for more than day or two) had passed on to the Summer Land, his name was Spooky The Beautiful, and he is mentioned in the lyrics to this song, "Hey there Mr. Ghostly, Mr. I'm soooo spooky!!!" - "Kitty sit so pretty, you're never out of sight..." - From Zippy Zebra(Casper Kitty Cat/Mr. I'm so Spooky) - Both of those lines are in reference to my spooky baby!! also the line, "Casper, kitty cat, do you see through me?!?!" That's another lil' shout out to my Awesome Baby Boy, Spook!!!!This song is VERY special in the fact that it is totally unlike ANY of my other songs. It is an absolutely different & unique jam. it's so goofy, poppy and happy that it could almost be a children's song, but not quite!!! LOL!!!! it is an oddity, a curio from my massive back-log of songs, a relic from my checkered musical past. hope you N'Joy!!!!
