hello swirl Another lovely Nux Vomica creation.

Holistic fragments of bell-ish melodies amid soft backwash of creeping tonal distortion, with just a dash of glitch and the unknown.

Evolves to an interesting conclusion.

about

A special offering for Solstice 2012. The traditional East Asian calendars divide a year into 24 solar terms (節氣). Dōngzhì (pīnyīn) or Tōji (rōmaji) (Chinese and Japanese: 冬至; Korean: 동지; Vietnamese: Đông chí; literally: "winter's extreme") is the 22nd solar term, and marks the winter solstice. In China, Dongzhi was originally celebrated as an end-of-harvest festival. Today, it is observed with a family reunion over the long night, when pink and white tangyuan are eaten in sweet broth to symbolise family unity and prosperity.
