Electronica d’ambiente e minimale, piccola ma importante.

…sparkling, razor sharp textures, overlaid with twinkling layers of tones…

“Grand Treatments” composed by Son of Rose ends off the compilation with a heap of crackled bits and wind-like, sifting concoctions. An atmospheric way to end a compilation that will please any fan of microtones and composed electronic sounds alike.
