Ambient Noise
Ambient Noise is sonic textures with reverb tails and "frozen) sounds". Organic sounds digitally manipulated to reverberate in a space or room.
"Opti-Mystic" features white noise, mostly created through distorted guitars. I think this particular guitar has three or four different distortion pedals.
"Van to Hood" covers a scene with lots of anticipation and a little bit of fear. The atonality and noise adds to the foreboding feeling.
"Bright Space" uses a kazoo for a playful feeling noise element.
