Actually, she's giving birth by caesarean section to the synth.  And I
found the music quite interesting - electronic stuff well integrated with
live instruments and it sounds quite good actually.  Very fat synths with
a good groove behind them (some site says Velvets with analog synths is a
good comparison).  Ah well, doesn't matter anyway, personal taste is so
subjective.  Addicted to Noise (www.addictedtonoise.com) has a review
there.
