It's hard to sum up how the sound makes you feel after listening to it for so long. At points I felt like maybe a baby in a mothers womb might fit accurately. Another time during the listen I thought of floating away from the earth very slowly into outer space. I even thought it could be the soundtrack to a very slow death, or even just slowly dying over your lifetime if the tape were stretched out that long.
Interesting thought's, but at the same time listening to the full hour felt more like work to me than enjoyment. I'm proud to say I finished it, without skipping ahead once, though the temptation was very great.
That really made me want to listen to it. Link please?

I'm sure abdullah will see this, so I'll leave the linking to him I suppose, since it's "his."



I do think the part you bolded is the most fitting of the three I listed, but others might hear different things. That description fits, but maybe not as cool or interesting as it might sound.

As I said, that really was almost a chore listening to that same loop uninterrupted for so long. At least to me. Again though, everyone's different...so see what you think. 0_0
