Electronic ambient cassette rip from Plus Tapes. Overall dark, exploratory bedroom compositions employing a lot of distortion, loops, drones, buried samples, and aquatic imagery. Typically there’s a dynamic contrast between the heavy low end and the precious, twinkling keys or melodic synths. RIYL: Stellar Om Source, Hobo Cubes, Lunar Miasma, the Dead White, Secret Colors.

1. Minimal ambient and then intense, droning low-end. (8:31)
*2. Twisted samples and a locked, frightening, ringing groove. (1:35)
*3. Slow-mo coral reef snorkeling, strange bowing sounds, shards of synths and sequencers honk and blare. (3:58)
*4. Electronic organ melodic sustain. Gentle, pretty. (5:14)
5. Dreamy, low-fi electronic reversing guitars and turntable effects in the latter half. (5:25)
6. Noisy, extra-terrestrial pitch sliding. (5:43)
7. Mechanical undercurrents and acrobatic keyboard arpeggi and maneurisms. (4:15)
8. Oceanic ambient. (4:03)
9. Backwater acoustic pluck. (0:30)
*10. Submarine mechanical danger in the Marianas Trench. Tunneling deep sea drone. (2:59)
11. Overwhelming low-end plus electronic tones, rings, and beams. (3:32 w/ 45 seconds near dead air)
12. Pulsing electronic syncopated rhythm á la Starcircleanatomy. (3:12)
