It is from John Carpenter's ``Dark Star'' (1973). Check IMDB for more information. Geir Jenssen has used samples from ``2001'', ``2010'', ``Space Camp'' and ``Alien'' on his Biosphere albums, ``Microgravity'' and ``Patashnik''. I could samplespot for hours, it's one of my favourite pastimes besides anal retentive trainspotting, movie gawking and fanatic cover-to-cover reading. I wonder how I get any work done at all. 2C-T-7 is like being in a cab in a foreign city and the non-native driver just laughs at you and drives around the darkest corners of the city when you try to tell him to drive to your hotel. -- nuutti-iivari meriläinen gordon at diversion dot org http colon slash slash www dot diversion dot org slash --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
