Right before I made this record, I worked on a project with your estate to celebrate your work. I was intrigued by the assembly-line nature of your conceptual pieces—how they came off at times like handmade echoes of mass produced goods. This was inspiring as I worked in Ableton, which is made for modular compositions.
I have sought to play with modularity throughout this record, often by manipulating a melodic figure in various ways. For Piano VI, I wanted to start with a figure but never return to it, as if the piano was a launch pad and the track was aimed squarely for the abyss.
