{"product_id":"mere-mortals","title":"Mere Mortals","description":"\u003cp class=\"ms-outlook-mobile-reference-message\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eComposer-producer-musician-DJ Floating Points, aka Sam Shepherd, presents \u003ci\u003eMere Mortals\u003c\/i\u003e, his first full-length ballet score. Commissioned and directed by the San Francisco Ballet’s Artistic Director Tamara Rojo, with choreography by Aszure Barton and design and visuals by Hamill Industries, the ballet reimagines the story of Pandora in a fusion of myth, music and movement. Recorded with the San Francisco Ballet Orchestra for Deutsche Grammophon, the 14-track album is a potent mix of elegiac strings, apocalyptic brass and pulsing electronics. From the lyrical solo violin of \u003ci\u003eHope\u003c\/i\u003e to the dissonance and pummelling percussion of \u003ci\u003eRage of the Gods\u003c\/i\u003e, and the exquisite harp melody of \u003ci\u003eHer Gift\u003c\/i\u003e before the eeriness of \u003ci\u003eOpening of the Jar\u003c\/i\u003e, the score is rich in texture and effect. Orchestral music emerges from an electronic haze, mirroring the ballet’s central question: where does the human end and the machine begin?\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eTracklist\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e01 Movement 1 - Fire  \u003cbr\u003e02 Movement 2 - Hope  \u003cbr\u003e03 Movement 3 - Rage of the Gods  \u003cbr\u003e04 Movement 4 - Zeus’ Command  \u003cbr\u003e05 Movement 5 - Pandora’s Creation  \u003cbr\u003e06 Movement 6 - Pandora’s Theme  \u003cbr\u003e07 Movement 7 - Gift from the Gods  \u003cbr\u003e08 Movement 8 - Falling to Earth  \u003cbr\u003e09 Movement 9 - Prometheus’ Warning  \u003cbr\u003e10 Movement 10 - Her Gift  \u003cbr\u003e11 Movement 11 - Opening of the Jar  \u003cbr\u003e12 Movement 12 - A Plea  \u003cbr\u003e13 Movement 13 - Hope Taking Flight  \u003cbr\u003e14 Movement 14 - Nowhere to Land \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"UNIVERSAL","offers":[{"title":"2LP","offer_id":51798022619453,"sku":"4867283","price":36.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"CD","offer_id":51798022652221,"sku":"4868279","price":13.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0096\/1884\/9839\/files\/FloatingPoints_MereMortals_LP_Standard.jpg?v=1780661193","url":"https:\/\/sisterray.co.uk\/products\/mere-mortals","provider":"Sister Ray","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
