Demagnetized

"The original recording of the tape machine operations was cut into pieces. The recording was also used as an input for a granular sampler whose output was heavily modified by an effect chain mostly with delay based effects. The tape machine noises give some structure with start/stop of tracks. However in the end it gets more loose and for the finish some overlapping tape machine noises even give a kind of rhythm before the abrupt stop."
