Pomegranates is a 2015 electronic music album by Nicolas Jaar, intended as an unofficial alternate soundtrack to the 1969 film The Colour of Pomegranates.^[2][3]

Reception

Mark Richardson, writing for Pitchfork Media, gave Pomegranates a positive review, stating that "there are long stretches, particularly in the early going, where it's more of a sound piece than what is usually described as "music", but the album's second half contains some of Jaar's loveliest tunes."^[2] Sasha Geffen, writing for Consequence of Sound, gave the album a "B" grade and said that, given its length, "Pomengranates doesn’t always feel like an album or a soundtrack so much as it feels like an experiment in sculpting time."^[1]
