Pressed Close

[Instrumental] [Intro] (low electrical hum, muted piano mechanism, one deep damped piano note) [Pulse] (low prepared-piano notes establish a slow repeating pattern, deep sub pulse underneath) [Slow Groove] (sparse heavy kick and lazy snare enter, muted piano rhythm sits between the drum hits) [Development] (low piano chords become slightly wider, brushed metallic friction and resonant piano strings appear) [Instrumental Break] (piano mechanism, sub resonance and tiny metallic clicks only) [Return] (close-miked piano returns with soft repeated low notes, long pedal resonance between phrases) [Deep Groove] (slow dragging industrial rhythm, piano and sub locked into a hypnotic physical pulse) [Pressure Section] (damped chords repeat more insistently, resonant strings swell underneath, percussion slowly thickens) [Breakdown] (single low piano note repeating against deep sub, long spaces between impacts) [Extended Piano Section] (slow restrained prepared-piano improvisation, muted attacks, low minor harmony, occasional resonant upper strings) [Late Build] (heavier sub pressure, stronger piano pulses, brushed metal becomes denser without increasing tempo) [Peak] (full slow groove, piano rhythm, deep sub and industrial percussion moving as one repeating pattern) [Release] (piano pattern gradually loses notes, percussion falls away) [Outro] (one low damped piano chord followed by long resonant string decay and fading electrical hum) [End]
