I just discovered the music of Eduard Artemyev, and … it’s something I like now.
I came across the soundtrack for Stalker, then realized the same person had composed the soundtracks for other Tarkovsky movies.
He was born in 1937 (for perspective, that’s from before World War 2 started !), and … is not only alive, but still working until very recently!
He was experimenting with electronic music in the 60s, way before synthesizers were commonly used or available.
The Solaris soundtrack is from 1972, and he composed a new soundtrack as recently as 2016.
That’s a long, long time to be doing something.
