The dynamic range is extraordinary: from deep, droning chords and feathery, floating chorales to thunderous, speaker-shaking crashes. Again, subtlety is the key, with the music suggesting but never making too explicit the notion of extra-terrestrial contact. The result? Stanley Kubrick's 2001: A Space Odyssey gave us the visuals, here Stearns has created the ultimate imaginary soundtrack. Turn up the volume, turn out the lights, and allow yourself to fall into this beautiful, strange, scary, wondrous three-dimensional world. This is brilliant sonic theatre.
