<P> In the book Inside Out: A Personal History of Pink Floyd, Nick Mason noted that the band was becoming proficient at creating movie soundtracks by the time they started the recording of The Dark Side of the Moon, and that they even interrupted their work on the album so they could score yet another film . He explained the technical process that Pink Floyd used to score movies when he wrote about the recording of the 1972 Obscured by Clouds movie soundtrack: </P> <P> After the success of More, we had agreed to do another sound track for Barbet Schroeder . His new film was called La Vallée and we travelled over to France to record the music in the last week of February...We did the recording with the same method we had employed for More, following a rough cut of the film, using stopwatches for specific cues and creating interlinking musical moods that would be cross-faded to suit the final version...The recording time was extremely tight . We only had two weeks to record the soundtrack with a short amount of time afterwards to turn it into an album . </P> <P> The fame of Dark Side of the Rainbow has prompted some to search for synchronicities among other albums by other bands and films by other directors . The lengthy Pink Floyd song "Echoes" from the 1971 album Meddle has been paired with "Jupiter and Beyond the Infinite," the fourth act in the 1968 film 2001: A Space Odyssey . Again the correspondences are primarily formal / structural and not grounded in the content of the lyrics . Both the track and the sequence are approximately 23 minutes . </P> <P> Comedian Matt Herzau claims that the Pixar film WALL - E syncs up with Pink Floyd's rock opera The Wall, which he has called "Another Brick in the WALL - E", after the album's three - part song "Another Brick in the Wall ." Another popular Pink Floyd movie sync pairs The Wall with Disney's 1951 animated Alice in Wonderland . In connection with Alice, another Floyd - related album syncs up with that film--Syd Barrett's solo album The Madcap Laughs . </P>
