Mmm, bits of Rheingold, Gotterdamerung and Parsifal and 4 minutes without a resolution, well better than 4 hours of the opera I suppose.

Michael Land's remarkable score for the LucasArts game - The Dig.

Michael took Richard Wagner chord samples (snippets from Wagner

Kurzweil K2000.

"unexpected textural variations" ... Yes indeed.
