Notes

For reference, we divide the "Sony Center Topping Out Ceremony Score" into these movements:

0'00"-3'16" Movement One (neoclassical intro)

3'17"-5'44" Movement Two (frenzied percussion interlude)

5'45"-7'44" Movement Three (excerpt of "Spiral Star Date") (or is it "Mars Mission Counter"?)

7'45"-13'19" Movement Four (neoclassical interlude)

13'20"-15'53" Movement Five (sequencer interlude)

15'54"-18'46" Movement Six (conclusion)

1. (9901) Unreleased atmospheric intro, beginning with NASA "ground control" voice samples, leading into a space-shuttle-launch countdown. All is underpinned with an ominous bass drone.

2. Essentially identical to the the CD version, though a touch shorter and with a more forward guitar lead by Gerard Gradwool and scattered percussion effects by Emil Hachfeld. This track has a more purposeful, driving sound than the relatively laid-back sounding studio version.

3. Essentially the same as the CD version.

4. Ditto; guitar lead by Gerald Gradwool.

5. Essentially the same as the CD version.

6. Essentially the same as the CD version.

7. A brief excerpt, more of a bridge between tracks than a track in itself. Some new highlights - including a significantly upped bass presence - give this track more drive than before.

8. Essentially the same as the CD version.

9. Essentially the same as the CD version.

10. Essentially the same as the CD version.

11. Essentially the same as the CD version.

12. Essentially the same as the CD version.

13. Essentially the same as the CD version.

14. "Sony Center" Movement 5, second-to-last "movement" of the suite. Essentially same as the CD version.

15. The Movement 2 of the Sony Center Score, with electronic percussion heavily improvised by Jerome. Much livelier than the the CD version, though definitely along the same lines.

16. Movement 6, the final "movement" of the Sony suite, but with a heavy guitar accompaniment and a much more forceful overall sound, making it sound like a majestic closure.

17. Essentially the same as the CD version, though shortened.

18. Essentially the same as the CD version, with some creative percussion by Hachfeld.

19. Essentially the same as the official The Keep CD version; currently the only known live post-release outing for a track from the TDI CD of The Keep. (Several tracks that appear on the album appeared live first.)

20. Essentially the same as the CD version, though the guitarwork is even more frantic.
