This laid the foundation for the exploration of unconventional and non-musical sounds as viable artistic expressions. …

A finger puzzle of reconciled opposites: lockstep structure and constant flux. Many of the tracks reflect the unique blending of the disparate backgrounds of its creators: on “Abhorred Shears”, “Slee…
