On this day, May 3rd, we’re celebrating Sun Day (originally International Sun Day). Proposed by Denis Hayes and established by President Jimmy Carter in 1977 by a joint resolution, Sun Day celebrates that shining star in the middle of our known galaxy, the sun. Along it providing light and heat, the sun can be harnessed as a source of power with the use of solar panels.

We’ll be listening to tracks that feature or use the sun: A warrior hunting the vampire that stole his Solar Gun, the blue bomber dealing with robots infected by a virus, and a cursed undead told to be the one that will extend the Age of Fire. There’ll also be covers and remixes to follow each track, including a chiptune demake.

May your days be clear as you enjoy the warm and brightness of the sun…
