Does anyone remember he also made a soundtack for "Utomlennye Solntsem" (Burnt By the Sun / Soleil Trompeur) Directed by Mikhalkov? The film is huge and the music is enchanting, makes people who lived in Soviet Russia weep. Damn, I wish I had this full soundtrack :(

Picked up a bootleg of Solaris at Comic-con last year, it's absolutely stunning.

Solaris is by no means only worth-while work of Artemiev. Try his remarkable near-krautrock '84 albums "Картины-Настроения"("Moods") & "Ода Доброму Вестнику"("Ode to the bearer of good news")
