Anyone ever seen Invocation of my Demon Lover Brother? Mick Jagger did the soundtrack. VERY Aphex-ish. I saw this movie recently and I suspect there are more than a couple of people on this list that would like the soundtrack. -- Brian "Cool, sophisticated, space-like controls" http://sparrow.bio.indiana.edu/brian/me bhostetl@silver.ucs.indiana.edu

Yup, actually it's called 'Invocation of My Demon Brother', and I've got a crummy British video copy of it, published by Jettisoundz Video (MJ004) (in the USA it's on Mystic Fire if my memory serves me well). Directed by Kenneth Anger in 1969, it has 11 minutes footage of some Satanic rituals, and features among all the founder of the Church of Satan, Anton Szandor LaVey as... erm... Satan. Great background stuff for any rave, IMHO ;) I don't think there's a soundtrack for the film though, unless it's bootlegged. And, well, yes, you can call it AFX-y (or, Sahko-esque, to that), if this is the way to call any monotone, high-pitched Moog Synthesizer wailing with no tune or melody at all :) Still, check it out if you can. For similar effect, find out the soundtrack for 'Performance' (WB 9 26400-2). Its title song has same kind of Moog humming and a wailing female vocal in it. The film starred Mick Jagger but I don't know if he had anything to do with that particular track. Rolling Stones - so much to answer for. Another Trainspotting Finn (hello Nuutti!), ERkki OnNow: Morton Subotnick: Touch (also from '69 - while we are at it, i.e. AFX:)
