Moments Worth Listening For
The spine-tingling expansion of the final major chord in Lux Aurumque that feels like a physical sunrise.
The percussive, wind-like vocal effects in Leonardo Dreams of His Flying Machine that mimic the flapping of mechanical wings.
The heartbreakingly simple piano melody that anchors the soaring vocal lines in The Seal Lullaby.
