Dissonant synths, flutes, drums, and saxophones blend into formless (not a bad thing) mood pieces with a surreal edge. 1 In a major key, lots of dissonance, heavy on the saxophones *2 Flutes, mid-tempo drums, and synths evoke Native American mysticism 3 Lots of space-style pitch-bending. Synths with horns – background “space” noise. Busy. *4 Starts with just percussion, then solo sax with a raw, Bedouin-like edge. Haunting. 5 Up-tempo, perky sax call-and-response format 6 Dissonant saxophones make avant-garde electronica. Jarring. 7 Slow, somewhat dissonant blend of only saxophones 8 Synths in the background, overlaid with slow, jazzy saxophone *9 Guitar, synths, and flute combine in this mellow, upbeat, nearly orchestral track 10 Multi-layered, if formless, combination of synths and saxophones 11 Ethereal, space-age synth experiment, Jarre on illegal substances 12 (Secret track) Synths that sound like a woman singing, a man snoring, geese honking | ||
