I agree with Prisoner, no Mike here. The first sounds like something that Viper here could do, but only in the final notes - the rest of it sounds like someone having fun with Pro Tools. :D The second one sounds like a mixture between JMJ, Moby's ambient stuff and APP's Ian Bairnson on a bad acid trip. :D

IIRC the second video has already been identified as fake, either here or at oldfieldforum.de.
However, the first track, 'Alleluja' resp. 'Hallelujah', actually is genuine Oldfield It originates from his work for 'Light and Shade' - IIRC he even mentioned it in some of the interviews of that time. It was delivered on CD-R together with the bonus tracks 'Lakme', 'Pres de Tois' and 'Cook's Tune' to Universal, but never officially released (though somehow leaked through to Spain...).

Perhaps we see the start of his interest in Orchestral work with these "extra" tracks - Hallelujah & Lakme etc.

The answer is 42 - but what is the question?
