Those who follow halF unusuaL unusually carefully will recognise some of the elements in this piece come from an exploration of GRM Tools Atelier (which has just been released) and sounds you hear here are 'stolen' from that first little experiment you can see at https://youtu.be/Cj0mKQF2Cew ...

reminding me not to forget
a toad goes out
to the verdant world
