I don't see how this lines up. the shifts in the music don't correspond to the scene changes.

With those visuals, pretty much any psychedelic sound will work.

On a tangent, it’s interesting to me that 2001 was made before the time of fly-bys from Voyagers (by nearly a decade) so the fuzzy images of Jupiter were probably some of the best available at the time. In only the 40+ years since, we’ve had Cassini and Juno bringing even more details than Voyagers, and all of that imagery is so entrenched now that 2001’s fuzzy images look fake

That one is mentioned in teh article as one that "didn't take" but I agree it works well.
