Notes

111 MHz: ‘Solaris.’ In 2021, when so many of us were stuck at home, Kevin Richard Martin—who records as The Bug and under other names—decided to rescore the 1972 Soviet sci-fi classic Solaris, directed by Andrei Tarkovsky and based on the Stanislaw Lem novel from 1961. As Tarkovsky is known for his dreamlike, long camera shots, Martin’s chords are languorous. You can hear the emptiness of deep space here.
