Nicolas Jaar penned a soundtrack for the 1969 film by Sergej Paradzanov, The Color of Pomegranates (Other People, 2015). This is abstract electronic soundpainting. It begins borrowing the tragic overtones of Klaus Schulze's early cosmic symphonies, but soon decays into disjointed noise that leads to a tenderly romantic sequence of tinkling sounds. A glitchy loop mixed with a distant anemic wail further disintegrates the audio stream. Found voices are manipulated and embedded in diffracted echoes of ethnic music. Metallic industrial metronomy morphs into a hypnotic Caribbean-tinged dance. Then the tiny chaos for a while acquires a psychotic flavor, eventually interrupted by children's choir. At about half time (42 minutes into the piece) the music begins to turn more and more humane, indulging in piano jazz and wavering folk melodies and even thumping techno music (one hour into the piece). The latter opens a propulsive segment, but soon the music plunges into religious laments and a harrowing darkness from which it reemerges only with the final piano elegy, halfway between a nocturnal jazz improvisation and a neoclassical sonata.
