Solaris

UBUWEB tweeted the link to a rip of the vinyl recording of the soundtrack to Tarkovsky's Solaris last night.  I haven't really tried to navigate UBUWEB's  apparently vast pataphysical archive, but the occasional Twitter update makes for some good passive scores like this one.

You can also look at visuals and listen to a stream of the whole thing at the bottom of this page from the Archive of Andrei Tarkovsky.

Apparently this was recorded in 1972, but the site authors can't find any evidence it was actually ever put out in the USSR.  This, despite the fact that the Japanese releases' cover art claims the music is remastered from the original Russian vinyl.  I originally went after this link because I wanted to see the original Russian artwork, but alas.  The English language art is pretty badass, though.

If you look closely at the bezels you'll notice that Rolex replica watches sale selects slightly darker stones at each hour marker point. Of course all the stones are of excellent quality and hand-set by Rolex in-house. Each of these Pearlmaster watches comes with an option diamond-set bracelet as well. There is no doubting that these are strictly replica watches sale ladies watches and to opt for this collection to debut a new piece of movement technology is a strange thing as women are traditionally not the key demographic to be interested in the details and performance of a watch movement. Nevertheless rolex replica has incorporated Syloxi in the 2236 and it is unclear exactly how they will roll-out the technology into future timepieces. Why replica watches sale silicon? Well the nature of silicon means that it does not require lubrication, is not effected by swiss replica watches changes in temperature, does not react to magnetism, and is extremely stable.
