Experimental noise, found sounds layered and treated. Inspired by an early 20th “audio postcard” called the Sonorine. All very organic, piano tones, bird calls. Hypnotic and lush and very beautiful in places. Mostly very chill, definitely not harsh.

1) bird calls, songs, with vinyl noise as sound bed
2) looping drones and tones, lush ambient, organic and pretty
3) fast looping bell-like tones, heavily layered samples provide color to this 4) chill sparse, key tone melody loops until heavier loops take over, like a night in the woods on acid, grows dense around 6 minutes in
5) piano tones, bird samples join, then chiming bells add to the fray, dense
6) minimal chill organic/outdoors sound, brief
7) very organic tones, dense with what sounds like rain, liquid, noises
8) utilizes radio/tv sounds, looping frippy tones too
