2112 (song) "2112" (pronounced twenty-one twelve) is a side-long title track from Canadian rock band Rush's 1976 album of the same name. The overture and the first section, "Temples of Syrinx", were released as a single and have been featured in most of Rush's setlists since. The "sci-fi" sounds in the beginning of the song were created using an ARP Odyssey synthesizer and an Echoplex tape delay. On the "2112 / Moving Pictures" episode of the documentary series "Classic Albums", producer Terry Brown states the synth intro is composed of various parts played by Hugh Syme that were put together in a collage. Since 1997, when any parts of the song are performed live, they are transposed down one full step, as heard on every live album and DVD from "Different Stages" forward.
Barn Jams Barn Jams are a series of instrumental pieces written by Pink Floyd guitarist, David Gilmour and performed by him and the core members of his 2006 On an Island Tour band, Guy Pratt on bass, Richard Wright on keyboards and Steve DiStanislao on drums. The sessions were recorded and filmed in a barn at David's home in Sussex, England, in January 2007. It is unknown how many pieces exist, altrough Gilmour himself, in a bonus interview within the second DVD of his 2008 release "Live in Gdańsk", claims that he and guitarist Phil Manzanera (who co-produced the "On an Island" album) recorded and catalogued "close to 200" jams. Three tracks were released as part of the "Live in Gdańsk" 4-disc edition, deluxe edition and vinyl edition; one was released on "Remember That Night" (2007) and four more were released on the deluxe edition of Gilmour's 2015 "Rattle That Lock" album. The "Barn Jams" are the last released recordings made by Richard Wright before his death in 2008.
