The Unseen

~ Release by Quasimoto (see all versions of this release, 5 available)

Annotation

An interview of Lord Quas asserts that the OST of La Planète sauvage, a French-Czech animated film by René Laloux, winner of the Prix Spécial at the Festival de Cannes in 1973, is "well known as a sample source for much of The Unseen". But none of the samples used is officially credited. Even so, the artwork makes a subtle reference to it. The artwork under the plastic support of the CD shows a character of this movie walking down a street.
