[minimal / soundtrack]

sounds like an experimental, secondary minimal work. Rather sparse and acoustic, sometimes ambient, and often pleasant or inquisitive or sad. watch for silent parts. History: made as a soundtrack for the film Pomegranates.

1-*(5:40) almost symphonic, atmospheric experiment. varied. An "ode to a water bug".
2-*(5:45) slow, nice, calm
3-(3:48) QUIET at first, observant, background noise
4-(5:21) has a rhythm. forlorn, recorded clips of a background movie. GOES QUIET at 4:55
5-(3:31) sedated techno but curious
6-(1:57) sparse little piano tune
7-(3:20) a baby's little wondrous nightmare
8-(4:23) sea creatures chat over coffee and acid bass
9-(2:25) variety of false-peak climactic tune
10-(3:19) confident, playful, quiet. minimal vocal lines. gets QUIET at 3:08
11-*(2:23) lively waking 'dawn' is fitting
12-*(3:54) heavy 13-*(5:11) off-ambient
14-(4:06) a moonlit dance
15-*(1:56) blissful arpeggiated, vocal
16-(1:33) queit notes reverb and echo
17-(4:56) muted minimal techno
18-(2:43) church chorus, QUIET at 2:16
19-*(3:33) reflective
20-*(5:43) piano
