Zaireeka is an experiment with multiple sound sources, listener participation and new dimensions of sound. Warning: this is a unique recording. These eight compositions are to be played using as many as four compact disc players, and have synchronized start times. This recording also contains frequencies not normally heard on commercial recordings and on rare occasion has caused the listener to become disoriented. This set consists of 4 CDs but each disc contains different parts of the same eight tracks. So the tracklisting consists of only these eight tracks. Zaireeka was recorded in Cassadaga, New York, April - August of 1997. © Lovely Sorts of Death/EMI Music Publishing BMI © ? 1997 Warner Bros. Records Inc. for the U.S. and WEA International Inc. for the world outside the U.S. Made in U.S.A.foobar2000 1.3.6 / Dynamic Range Meter 1.1.1 log date: 2015-01-08 01:12:09 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Analyzed: The Flaming Lips / Zaireeka, Disc 1 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- DR         Peak         RMS     Duration Track -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- DR6       -0.02 dB    -7.67 dB      2:52 01-Okay I'll Admit That I Really Don't Understand DR7        0.00 dB   -10.57 dB      7:02 02-Riding to Work in the Year 2025 (Your Invisible Now) DR5       -0.69 dB    -9.31 dB      4:59 03-Thirty-Five Thousand Feet of Despair DR6        0.00 dB    -7.74 dB     10:24 04-A Machine in India DR7       -0.26 dB   -10.63 dB      6:13 05-The Train Runs Over the Camel But Is Derailed by the Gnat DR2       -0.26 dB    -4.95 dB      2:24 06-How Will We Know?
