Kristian Eidnes Andersen: Vivarium (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack)
Kristian Eidnes Andersen Vivarium (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) Milan The film Vivarium is at least half/three-quarters of a good movie (click that link to read my review).

Clint Mansell & Kronos Quartet: Noah [OST]
Clint Mansell & Kronos Quartet Noah [OST] Nonesuch Records Inc. It’s probably a good thing I’ve yet to see the film – I may never see the film actually (oh, who am I kidding, curiosity will kill this cat). But at least I got to hear the soundtrack first. It used to be that I had […]Archive
