Most of us are familiar with the third movement of Claude Debussy's Suite Bergamasque, titled Claire de Lune. But how many of you have heard the electronic arrangement of the number created by Isao Tomita and the moog synthesizer and released in 1974? Note, you'll want to experience this one with headphones.

@austinnix uh. I have. I found some tomita tapes in my dad's closet in 2006. I thought for the longest time I was the only one who knew of him. Wrong I was.

@austinnix I think national public radio used to have a 1 or 2 minute daily talk about astronomy, that recording was their theme song. :)
