This is a shorter Mix of the original composition.
"dripping introduces the listener to imaginary rooms, whose physical structures are made tangible by the composition of droplets generating sound. The droplets can be thought of as being the echoes of a location system, which gives the listener access to a whole microcosm of almost unperceivable sounds from the perspective of an insect. The initially irregular dripping sounds describe a path through a "virtual" soundscape of various different material consistencies. They then begin adopting rhythmic patterns that create a hypnotic atmosphere as a result of their combined repetition and nuanced fluctuation."
