Notes
From the in game music to Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell 3: Chaos Theory, courtesy of Ubisoft.
This version has an 6- CD insert, which folds out to make a nice small poster.
It includes track creation notes, BPM, track times and the below blurb about the artists behind the album.
"It was a real special session. I can't believe the legendary Nacho Mendez was even available and tracking him down in the deepest Mexico was no picnic either. Eiji... hell, he doesn't even speak English but it was magic to hear him click with everyone when he picked up that flute. And who can forget the tearful reunion of the Modugno brothers. They hadn't spoken for years due to some beef over writing credits on some of their earlier works. We didn't even tell them they would both be on the record for fear of one of them would walk out. Fortunately after some initial awkwardness in the studio, they sat down at their respective instruments and the rest is all here."

Edited 17 years ago"Chaos Theory" is easily my all time top 3 video game soundtrack and this was also my first full album encounter with the 'slice, dice, cut and rearrange the samples the way you have never experienced' audiochef named Amon Tobin. Since then i have wandered through his entire discography, from early days with his alias Cujo to his (current) latest work "Foley Room". Most of his stuff are good, some rise to pure awesomeness, some records still requires little bit more attention to understand his 'niche' but in the end, i always come back to "Chaos Theory". Why? Maybe because it's his most tight, all-around well crafted work today. Like the liner notes says, he dedicated 110% to this project and went so far just to find and get all the right musicians he wanted for this one time opportunity. And don't forget the way he fully converted his sound so it suited perfectly in dark soundtrack format and still keeping his recognizable, yet abstractly constructed drum and bassish touch from start to finish. Or maybe because this was the first Amon Tobin album i bought and therefore any other record from this man will not this one. Simply put, to me "Chaos Theory" is one those record from truely innovative artist which i'll cherish and keep close to my heart for the rest of my life.
