Deeply spiritual meditation
, December 1, 1999Reviewer: mind_walkers - See all mind_walkers's reviewsDeeply spiritual meditation on the crazy pace of modern life. I love this album as much as I love this movie. The Native American chant which introduces the score is so evocative! Hard to listen to this music without seeing Reggio's stunning visions pop into mind. What a fabulous, little-known film it was, and this music is the perfect score for it. Just like for another two wonderful movies: Mind Walk and Kundun, Philip Glass use his music explain the movies and open your mind.

Pro Reviews: Koyaanisqatsi [WEA International]
| EXPERT RATING: From AMG Reviews Parodied more than once, derided, blessed, hailed as a wonder and decried as a travesty, this (abbreviated) soundtrack is capable of generating fascination and annoyance, often simultaneously. The truth is that this isn't merely minimalism -- it's expressive minimalism, with some impressive nuances. Given the space to breathe, the music here is breathtaking, and becomes even more so when properly linked, in its full form, with the film's visuals. The later Powasqaatsi did not live up to the first film in either a visual or musical respect. - Steven McDonald, All Music Guide |
