i'd appreciate an explanation - it's mostly a CSS layout.

thanks
If you look in their stylesheet at http://www.soulacreative.com/style.css it seems they just position the menu element accordingly to be over the top of the flash movie, and then ensure it's high presence on the Z-axis by setting the value to 9:
Code:
#right_menu #menu {margin: 30px 30px 30px 17px; width: 180px; position: absolute; z-index: 9;}
I could be wrong though.
