Zen Effects by Federsen
Chapter SPCLNCH08.
— I'm glad Chris has let us jam. Listen, what if we start a live duet?
— Come on, I'm too old for this crap. And how do you manage to do all that with your paws?
— I just watch educative broadcasts on Alien-TV sometimes. They talk about different software, hardware and approaches to music production.
The sound was spreading through the body, naturally causing headshakes and goosebumps. It all came down to an instinctive feeling of the world encapsulated in a cosy room. There was a mystery here, the one the comparison with which the previous adventures couldn't stay. Amongst many dimensions, the current one had a particular elusive magnetism. The charm of the home studio reflected punctuality and a love for music. Improvised delights called out kindred spirits, guiding them to the moment of mutual dissolution and self-adjustment.
— But there are lots of curiosities that are out of reach of science…
— Feel the Zen effect, my friend; the chosen path is not accidental.
— Cat? Did you just say that?!

A patent expert Federsen makes themed sound anagrams for the eighth physical edition.
His home studio is where he gathers, elaborates and implements ideas. The use of analogue inventory allows one to define rules for calculating the final proportions. It is these rules that help derive the exact formula of the constituent parts – the four semantic blocks. In each of them, in addition to the assigned moods, it is easy to detect control samples of technical origin.
The intro is in the "Satori Dub" position with neat arrangements: fragile hats, concentrated bass and episodic hollow drums. The references to the origins of dub-techno through Maurizio-style claps are replaced by the action of "Druid Heights". The minor plot spreads throughout thanks to lexical bursts, ethereal delays and synth loops that help dive into the audio observation.
By accelerating the overall tempo and creating the illusion of light rhythmic gaps, "Zazen" takes side "B" to another level of exploration with the help of abstract and illogical noises. Smoothly approaching the origins of the release, Kooscha exhibits the author's derivative – a brightly and minimally rendered remix. Spherical springy bottoms are covered with a pad veil that completes the journey through the nooks and crannies of transistor circuits and human emotions.
