Soundtrack for an imaginary German trailer of "Earth vs. the flying saucers". Granulated rattan sofa, half speed mellotron, various sounds, speech samples.
Translated libretto:
man1: listen! what is it? woman: what do you mean? man1: this is the noise! woman: this is the noise! woman: this is the noise! man1: this is the noise that was on our tape. we could not understand the words because the tape was running too fast man2: we have only heard some unintelligible noises - but they didn't make sense to us alien: we have a completely different rhythm of time here alien: (sings in alien language) woman: was that a saucer ... a flying saucer? man1: we have seen something that one could take for a flying saucer ...

Oh yes...I love this song too...very ominous and dark sounding...you can't help that when you use the tri-tone interval! :) The funny thing is that I have the movie "Earth vs. the Flying Saucers" on DVD, as well as about 70 other classic 50's and 60s sci-fi DVDs. I eat this stuff up like candy. Thank you, Michael! I clearly remember the scene in the movie that you call out as well. Great movie, up there with The Day the Earth Stood Still, This Island Earth, War of the World, etc.
I dont' know the original film, neither the original soundtrack, but I really like how your track sounds. It's dark and obscure, and the final result is really impressive.
