Sample art/ambient. Formerly of Ministry, Connelly works on a heavily-sampled, dreamy hypnotic canvas here. It can be a little bit meandering and repetitive, but quite atmospheric. Mostly easy on the ears; spaced out tones make up the foundation and interlocking sections of the pieces. No FCCs noted.

1. Distant female vocal sample, which comes and goes throughout the song. Primary theme is a looped, simple, piano chord sample. Male choral vocals sampled in there as well. At 14 minutes in, apocalyptic noise/static. Then goes back to a cycle of the female vox/piano. More noise around 25 minutes. (30:18)
2. Primary sample is a 4-5 minute, three-chord solo acoustic folk downer tune, which is cut up and reused throughout. Lots of reversed guitars and weird washes of creepy voices/samples. (21:18)
