Bottom/ The cover of Strange Cargo Hinterland (N-Gram Records, 1995) by English electronic artist William Orbit shows the Enneagram of Personality figure emerging from the waters. Best known for his work on Madonna's album Ray of Light, Orbit also produced a version of Samuel Barber's "Adagio for Strings" featured on his album Pieces in a Modern Style which was a compilation of classical re-workings. Middle/ Risotto (Astralwerks) is the sixth album by British electronica group Fluke, first released in September 1997. Many of the tracks that brought Fluke to a larger audience feature on this album, including Atom Bomb, used on the Wipeout 2097 soundtrack, and Absurd, used in many films/trailers, including Sin City in 2005. The band's conception was influenced by the members interest in the burgeoning acid house music scene and particularly the work of Cabaret Voltaire and Giorgio Moroder. Top/ "The Bell" is a single by musician Mike Oldfield. It features a restructured, shorter version of the finale of section one of Oldfield's Tubular Bells II (Warner Bros., 1992), and features a Master of Ceremonies, who introduces the instruments. The instruments introduced, in order are; grand piano, pipe organ, glockenspiel, bass guitar, vocal chords, "two slightly sampled electric guitars", "the Venetian effect", "digital sound processing" and tubular bells.
