Longtime L.A. improvisin' pards Piper & von Seggern settle into the studio to cultivate their brand of active ambient music. Although your ears encounter space-out sounds reminiscent of longer raga & drone forms, the stereo playing field constantly resonates with the footballs/footfalls of percussion and restless multi-instrumental interjections, stretching your brain muscles in four quick 4-minute excercises perfect for urban breaktime.
The ancient burial ground beneath your building might whisper to you; the eyes of the checkout guy from the 7-Eleven might appear in the Amazon truck's exhaust smoke; you might remember brushing against the sage as you hiked in the desert under clouds of stars, hearing your own heartbeat when a meteor shot over the hill.
That's if you have time for a break, of course. Well, make time for this.
