- Light_Years_Away_(Warp_9_song) abstract ""Light Years Away" is the second single by the electro-hip hop group, Warp 9, released in 1983. Written by Lotti Golden and Richard Scher and produced by Lotti Golden, Richard Scher, and John "Jellybean" Benitez, the song appears on the group's debut album It's a Beat Wave (Prism Records) charting on the Billboard R&B and dance charts.Described as "the perfect instance of hip hop's contemporary ramifications," Warp 9's second record exemplifies the afrofuturist influence in hip hop, "born of a science fiction revival.""Light Years Away" a sci-fi tale of ancient alien visitation, partially inspired by The Message also pays homage to Sun Ra's film Space Is the Place. The rhyme in "Light Years Away" invokes a stark, cyberpunk Philip K. Dickian vision of the future. The song's experimental use of vocoders and sci-fi street imagery were highlighted in Newsweek's "Language Arts & Disciplines:Sci-Fi Street Sounds." The recording employed other innovative features: both singing and rapping, a cameo rap by the group's female member, live Latin percussion overdubs in combination with Roland TR-808 beats, and a unique take on the snare (backbeat). The snare is syncopated so that the backbeat arrives a 1/16th note early on the second beat of each bar; the fourth beat is not syncopated.".
