Moments Worth Listening For
The transition in track 2 where the guitar patterns begin to phase, creating a third ghostly melody in the overtones.
The somber, weighted piano chords that anchor the shimmering guitar work on track 5.
The way the final track mirrors the first, creating a sense of a circle closing with a slightly more resonant clarity.
