Embarassingly, when I got this in 2014, I didn’t really know who Robin Guthrie and Harold Budd were. But of course now I do. Guthrie being one of the founders of Cocteau Twins and the late Budd a legend in the ambient/minimalism genre. It all comes together wonderfully in this deliciously moody score — those ethereal guitar licks, the slow-moving progressions, the comfy synth cushions on which everything rests. Definitely a highlight score of that year.
