Choline

This track came from a simple process: get straight to the point with a backbone of dry, Berlin-style percussion. Melodies were left out in favor of scattered synth plucks and rhythmic effects. It's a short, headphone-focused piece that serves as a direct dose of minimalist techno for the rhythm-focused brain.
