The opening piece on side 2 is actually the hocketed marimba part that opens "No Self Control" (Keine Selbstkontrolle on the Deutsch version). I found it of tremendous interest in terms of getting to hear Daniel Lanois do his studio wizardry on *non* Brian Eno material (although I guess that his work with Martha and the Muffins has to count here as well). If you're at all familiar with the last two Enos-"The Pearl" w/Harold Budd and "Apollo" with Roger Eno and Dan Lanois-this album will sound a bit similar...particularly this lovely technique they've got down where you'll hear the original sound delayed and EQed into near unrecognizeability about 20 seconds later. By chaining a number of these delays together, he gets this lovely spreading pattern of sounds that is so subtle that you've got to have the stuff cranked up to really catch it.
