  • Summary

  • How does one with a penchant for cutting-edge electronic music, West-coast jazz, and lunar fantasies find relaxation in 1947? Why, with Les Baxter's Music Out of the Moon: Music Unusual Featuring the Theremin, of course! We take on this landmark album, which set the stage for exotica and lounge music in subsequent decades while ensuring visions of outer space remained an integral component of these fascinating genres. But it's more than that: Baxter's imaginings engage with a vast array of space music tropes, all at prior to the launch of Sputnik! This puts his music at the intersection of old and new trends, which yields some truly captivating results.
