Newmen - Earth Turns Clockwise

This is an incomplete project and my first time composing/arranging/writing/mixing/etc. in this genre. It is influenced by Steve Reich's Music For 18 Musicians and Phillip Glass's mid-2000 work.
I built this with the idea of using multiple time signatures using both the percussive and melodic elements. I use a 5:3:2 polyrhythmic foundations so that I can subtly transition between 4/4, 3/4, and 10/8 or have multiple timings running simultaneously. 
This is just a short sample (parts 1-3) of an unfinished 5 part song. I don't introduce the 10/8 (or 5/4, however you want to imagine it) rhythmic sections until part 4.
I'm not sure if I will update this when it's finished or put it on the solo LP I'm working on.

All writing, composition, arrangement, performance, mixing, etc. completed by Guy W. Forbes.
