  • The loops range from evolving textures lasting approximately 30 seconds to sounding wavetable-like audio.
  • Makes extensive use of the modulation capabilities of the EXS24 mkII sampler, including tempo synced instruments, free-form textural instruments, impact instruments, as well as noise instruments which are equally suited for both texture and percussion, and an instrument inspired by actual glaciers sounds recorded by artist Katie Paterson.
