In beginning with a sample of Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata, Sonare casts itself, from the outset, as goofy. This is something of a disservice to the rest of the record, which is an intriguing, colourful slice of Musique concrète. "Mouvement 5" features a repeated, manipulated sample of what sounds like a Star Trek transporter; "Mouvement 4" is a largely serene journey, akin to floating through a watery tunnel.
