I doubt it...... I've gone through the album about two or three times now..... on the most part, I suspect a lot of their breakbeats were sampled from early hip hop records..... Soul 2 Soul comes to mind for instance on this one track called Euphoria, with a vocalist who sounds remarkably like Madonna :) Delerium also make use of tonnes of middle eastern and medieval instruments (sampled, naturally) which at times are extremely effective. A lot of the time though it sounds kinda saturated.

Unfortunately, the only Delerium I've heard outside of their Nettwerk contributions was an old compilation of early works on Dossier. I thought it was boring, but I've heard nothing but good things about the Spheres series. onnow: Delerium "Karma" (again!!)
