Albedo 0.15 from Changing Landscapes by Perge
Essentially a cover version of the Vangelis track - Albedo 0.39, I wanted to confirm the data on the original was correct (it is) and then thought it would be interesting to see how the data for Mars would sound and recreate the song, I sat on the idea for nearly 20 years.
