"III" is an EP released by the techno duo Orbital. The title has a double meaning, referring to it being their third single release, and having three tracks. Two of the group's best known tracks, "Satan" and "Belfast", made their first appearances on the EP.
Samples
"Satan" features samples from "Sweat Loaf" by punk band Butthole Surfers.
"Belfast" uses a sample of soprano Emily Van Evera performing "O Euchari" from the Gothic Voices album A Feather On the Breath of God. The same sample had appeared on The Beloved's hit "The Sun Rising" a year earlier, but had not been credited.
"LC1" includes a sample of television presenter Fred Dinenage reading a report of an alleged alien abduction.
