Its one of my favourite albums. Strange, sad and beautiful melodies over mysterious harmonic soundscapes and sometimes simple bass riffs, spiced up with sampled sounds of insects.

According to some of small bits of information from internet searches, this music was entirely composed from insect samples.. This is just a guess-work - can be true as well as wrong. If Graeme Revell himself poured some light on this.
