2 Channel Tape-composition.

Voice fragments : Dora van der Groen

The composition uses ‘left-overs’ of material that is normally thrown away in a recording session.

Various treatments: Cross Synthesis, Spectral Morphing, Time Stretching, Pitch Shifting en Binaural Filtering are used in this short piece.
