The Sounds of the Sounds of Science features 78 minutes of new
instrumental music by Yo La Tengo. The CD contains the entire score
written and performed by the band to accompany eight legendary but
rarely-seen undersea documentary shorts by influential French avant-
garde filmmaker Jean Painleve. Yo La Tengo's score, originally debuted
on stage at the San Francisco Film Festival in April 2001 with the band
providing live accompaniment to the films, echoes the films' haunting
surrealist imagery, yet the music is equally evocative on its own, from
the dreamy soundscapes of ôSea Urchinsö and ôHow Some Jellyfish Are
Bornö to the harsher, more dissonant moods of ôLiquid Crystalsöand ôThe
Love Life of The Octopusö. In September 2001, the group headed into a
Nashville studio and laid down the complete score with longtime producer
Roger Moutenot. The resulting album also features vibrant cover photos
from the films, along with ominous and comforting illustrations by Jim
Woodring and Jad Fair.
