By moonlight

Elizabeth Alker offers up a playlist of ambient and experimental sounds inspired by the moon, including a duet from Benjamin Burke and Bear Glass recorded under the night sky in the open desert outside Joshua Tree, California. Jon Hopkins and Ólafur Arnalds, meanwhile, combine forces in a piece inspired by the writings of Erica Bernhard, creative director at NASA; and South Korean multi-instrumentalist Park Jiha makes use of traditional flutes, bells and glockenspiel to conjure an atmosphere of moonlit dreaming.
