Ariel e.p. - Alpha

Track list:

2. Ariel

Running time: 4 minutes
Released: 2008
So this must have been free somewhere, but damned if I know where; I only have the title track to this EP and a few other bits and pieces from the artist.

It gets into its loop immediately, no intro, which is quite a stark beginning for what is otherwise shaping up as a zone-out track - repetition of the loop layered with voice samples (French, mostly) and a couple of other musical lines to add texture. The loop then drops out two thirds of the way through, which makes the latter half of the track feel incredibly disjointed around that section. 

I get the feeling that in context of more work, there could be something about Alpha, but I lack that context right now and see no reason to hold onto this track. Done and dusted just like that, a nice easy one for tonight.
