Flyover is an experimental four track EP that includes mostly music made in Ableton Live and some live instrument recordings. Ambient, classical, trap, and experimental electronic sounds are all explored. Vocals were not used, and instead the focus is placed on combining unique and sometimes dissonant instruments, sounds, and effects. Build, the first track, starts as a simple ambient piece that gives way to a mix of tambourine, drums, and distorted chanting. Carnie is a trappysounding piece guided by creepy sounding piano riff. Interlude is the most experimental piece, and transitions from slow synth notes to a mix of heavily distorted noises ranging from movie soundbites to religious chanting, guided by a wonky piano melody and drums. Flyover, the title track, is a long, winding piece that explores echoey ambience, classical guitar, and string instruments.
