I loved Moon! Haven’t seen Solaris yet but it’s on my Netflix. Did you watch the Eduard Artemyev interview? I think Moon could have really used something more along the lines of the Solaris score. The Moon score felt almost like a jam session to me. Occasionally it lined up and had great moments musically with the film but didn’t seem crafted to the images.

I went & got the Criterion DVD release of Solaris out of the library…. can see some of its influence on the recent Moon film

Got the Solaris score CD today. Fantastic. A friend of mine has an LP version that is combined with sound from the film (water, footsteps) but my cd is “purely” the Bach organ piece and the ANS synth tracks. Really great atmosphere.

Fabulous. Now how do I get my hands on one of these?

That is a really beautiful sounding instrument! Thanks for the links. Ordered the Solaris CD and the ANS Archive Tapes CD.
