The prompt was to choose a sentence which described your musical practice, record yourself saying the sentence and use it as your only sound source.

I recently acquired a SOMA Cosmos drifting memory station, which acts as a type of looper. The left and right channels contain discreet loops which fall out of sync, drift and blur together. The unit also includes a granular mode and something SOMA calls a giant reverb. 

When I read the prompt, I immediately remembered an online convo I had with someone last year where they humorously described their own practice. While funny, it also fairly described one that I use quite often.

So for this piece, I recorded it in the three following parts, each into the Cosmos and on to the DAW: 

F'd Around
Until I Heard
Something I Liked

Once there, I added some reverb, eq and compression. I hope you like the result.
