The other interesting feature of the "Birdy" soundtrack is the lifted
source material that *isn't* mentioned on the rear sleeve. 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.
