Ross Alexander Payne has always been interested in The Earth and its relationship to all in its vicinity, this includes Earths place within the universe, and the presence upon Earth of both natural and manmade systems and processes. Drift and Expansion are tracks designed to represent a view of Earth from space. It was previously believed that the Earth was expanding and thus the continental land masses were moving as a result of this process. Modern scientific evidence does not support this idea, and the theory of plate tectonics is now almost universally accepted. This EP represents a view of the idea of these two disparate theories as if taken from the direct space around Earth. Ross explains in his words >Everything I do, be it music related or otherwise, is driven by this fascination with the universe around me, the quest to discover this universe and the desire to expand my knowledge of all within it<
