Moments Lost lasts less than 21 minutes but is jam-packed with a hyper-rich and varied array of sound that's immensely satisfying. The sources utilized here were old soundtrack LPs and, although one apprehends a general filmic sense, the exact source is never, at least to this listener, apparent. Instead, one takes off on a kind of journey, at first darkly dreamy, almost Lynchian, with muffled bell tones sliding along a somewhat prickly path that includes vinyl scratches, shifting in tonality and texture, but maintaining a forward thrusting, semi-SF sensibility.

About nine minutes in, a new, darker direction is taken, the sounds acquiring more of an organ-y character, still dense and many-layered, including skewed orchestral passages. I was reminded of some of those Fenn O'Berg pieces that also used soundtrack material. Here, they swirl in and out of focus, morph into each other in a manner both enticing and vaguely threatening. Toward the end of the piece, things coalesce into a shimmering, pulsating flow, quite thrilling, even orgasmic before, at the very conclusion, drifting into a rougher, slightly warped patch that, perhaps, returns us to a bit of reality.

An excellent release, entirely absorbing and highly recommended.
