Complicated electronica. Very polyrhythmic + polyphonic, vaguely aleatoric. Tone colors aren't too varied, bleeps + bloops of an older synth. Though the sounds can be aggressive, the overall mood of the tracks tends to be playful. Tracks have a couple different sections, the songs definitely evolve. The music is busy, at best an electronica marching band, at worst spaghetti in a blender...hard to take in large doses. Almost all tracks are med tempo. All instrumental. NO FCCs.
1-(5:22) Fire Alarm, trill/machine gun stutter perc. melody split between fire alarm + childlike synth.
2-(3:50) Snaky synth line over chaotic soundbed of clatters. Gets sparser halfway through.
3-(4:48) A hip hop beat, but the drum machine has been accidently rewired randomly through a synth.
4-(4:18) Four on the floor... 11/4. Nintendo bubbles, milliwatt tones. worrying strings.
5-(4:05) Underlying crickets loop. Busy with two melodies lots of looped rhythms.
6-(4:40) Slow, deliberate melody. 1/2way picks up, floor tom, creaking door, pfunk noises. Last 40s rattles.
7-(5:39) watery bass melody, looped rhythmic clatter.-3:30 quiet. motifs re-enter 1 by 1 but with variation.
8-(5:22) looped guitar+banjo with more+more effects. Last minute space age interference.
9-(3:38) Fast and busy.
10-(3:48) Obviously syncopated/stuttered with snare hits. More Prefuse-y.
