In response to what track the "Zen Music" comes from:

The beat comes from the first portion of Aphex Twin's "omgyjya switch7" on
the "drukqs" album. Sounds like they threw in some dude yelling like he was
being stabbed over top the beat and added a stuttered guitar part (Caine's
air guitar is more than classic). The screaming is what really throws you -
Aphex Twin is great zen music already, but even I was thrown by the absurd
yelling. Without it I would have said "nice try Aphex Twin is not really
future music" but the death yells are something completly foriegn and thus
make the track futuristic.

You can view the scene here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_CN56f9jWKI

Great movie and amazing sound design (although I felt the dialog was
sometimes out of sync - like they recorded it later on the sound stage but
didn't get it perfect sync'd to the motion) but still an amazing use of
sound fx to create tension throughout the film.
