Album Description
Available in:
In Sides is the fourth album recorded by Orbital, released in 1996. The name is a reference to the fact that the album was originally available as a 3-LP vinyl box set, with one track per "side" of each LP.
"The Girl with the Sun in Her Head" was dedicated to the memory of Volume magazine photographer Sally Harding who died in 1995. The track was recorded using electricity from a Greenpeace solar power generator. It opens with the sound of a heartbeat which serves as bass and develops into what many critics hold as one of Orbital's most accomplished pieces.
"P.E.T.R.O.L." was included in the soundtracks for the video game Wipeout and also the film π. The title of the fifth track, "Dŵr Budr" is Welsh for "dirty water" and was written with the then-recent MV Sea Empress oil tanker disaster just off the coast of Wales in mind. "Adnan's" was originally written for 1995's The Help Album, benefitting War Child.
Vocals on the album are credited to the mysterious Auntie, a pseudonym used by Alison Goldfrapp on this release. Her singing on "Dŵr Budr" is nonsensical chanting, and has been rumoured to have been played backwards, though neither the brothers nor Goldfrapp herself will divulge any information.
