Notes

Quotes from the documentary on the DVD of the Black Celebration remaster from 2006:

Alan Wilder: One of the first tracks we recorded, I think, was Stripped. And that just flowed, probably the only track on the album that did, and it was easy.[1] And I think I have to give credit to Martin's demo, because recorded the demo using the opening sound to that, which is an Emulator sample of a motorbike, ideally. And we said, "Well, let's just replicate that in the studio", and everything else just followed. We recorded Dave's Porsche, if you're trying to be [specific], a Porsche, and we recorded its ignition, which starts the track.

Gareth Jones: Fireworks on Stripped, as well, is another famous piece. Obviously, on November the 5th, it was.

Daniel Miller: It was rockets that we were doing, so we thought, if we angled them at a fairly low angle, we could set up a series of microphones and we would still be able to pick up the sound as it travelled along. If we straight up, we would have got just one sound, it would just have sort of disappeared, so we did that. We set up a sort of bottle at a very narrow angle and had, like, 5 microphones maybe, at, I don't know, 15 feet apart, something like that.
