This week the AP team put on their spacesuits and blast off into the quantum realm of Daniel Lopatin's soundtrack to the A24 film Uncut Gems.

While contemplating inner peace, the universe and prog-rock synthesizers, the team wring their hands and wonder if the soundtrack is able to stand up on its own.
NOTE: there are spoilers to the film Uncut Gems from the 6:15 mark The ending is not revealed, but a few key scenes and moments are alluded to or explained in varying degrees. If you like to watch your films without spoilers - maybe put this one on pause and come back when you've given it watch.
