I don't really care about the weird back story of this album (score for a non-existing movie), what I hear is weird instrumental and somber music with an interesting atmosphere. Of course the result is pretty cinematographic, but as many instrumental albums. It's hard to put your finger on the genre(s), which makes it also interesting. A bit anecdotical, far for the best instrumental album I ever heard, but decent nonetheless.

When I was a kid, I used to borrow sound effects LPs from the library and record them on to cassettes to make mini audio dramas. This album is a little bit like that, except it also adds in a musical soundtrack for an imaginary film noir with the track names hinting at the unfolding drama. There are some nice nods to the genre with the Hitchcock tune and a stab at a Bond theme. I could imagine using this as a soundtrack for a seedy spy rpg. Cinetastic!
