This composition uses ONLY those sounds, that were recorded by me! Nothing, but experimentation with the self- recorded material. Most of all, I followed the Schaeffer's aesthetic which is based on 'reduced listening' - listening to the sound for its own sake. There are 70 tracks in total and all consist of self-recorded samples that went through the various kinds of manipulation.

However, as well as that, when I was writing this composition, I had a clear picture in my head. I got inspired by the idea of a journey through a fairy forest- a place with lots of temptations inside. It looks attractive and creatures that live there seemed to be so nice and friendly, that you don’t want to go out of it. But their goal is to deceive you and if you stay - you loose. Because this is not true. Life is not like that. This ‘test’ is difficult because you have to abandon these pleasures and opt not a perfect, but real life.
