Minimalist composer Philip Glass reaches new heights with the soundtrack to the Paul Schrader film Mishima: A Life in Four Chapters (Elektra/Nonesuch, 1985), following his score for the 1982 cult film Koyaanisqatsi: Life out of Balance, directed by Godfrey Reggio. In the Hopi language, the word Koyaanisqatsi means 'crazy life, life in turmoil, life out of balance, life disintegrating, a state of life that calls for another way of living', and the film implies that modern humanity is living in such a way.
