Whopping marimba-laden, a hot, and wobbly excursion into '84 Space. Luxuriantly gorgeous though threatening.

Capitol Theatre

A moving experience, so close to being lost forever yet saved from the abyss by Ken and judy, this magical version is so jazzy lush and transcendent, fuck yes. Glowing with a primordial state of infinite transition, constellation undulating across millenia of time and light, revealed to us in but an image, a film of existence
