Dust on wings, drawn to warmth. A lullaby in reverse—starting awake, fading to sleep. Tape warble and velvet tones.

Almost a full day of trial and error from a simple idea that I just wouldn’t give up on. The initial loop came, with the flutters, then ZOA takes over the melody as the second arpeggiation comes in. Slowly the arpeggiation gives way to ZOA’s bassline. Koala is used to live sample sections of the song and play those back manipulated.
