The album is a 73-minute-long vocal drone piece interwoven with Mellotron[3] and is referred to by Cope as “a simultaneously-synthesized parallel-harmonic Breathing Meditation.”[4] It was recorded in one take, as Cope explained, "The preparation of the studio took six hours, but the performance was entirely live like a concert and without overdubs."[5]
