The sound of Messier 82 (NGC3034, "Cigar Galaxy") varies, depending on the part of the spectrum you listen to.

(Production notice for disquiet junto members:) I created a melody and two permutations of it (D harmonic minor). These are introduced in the order of A, B and C and then permutated in different combinations. To avoid too much obvious minimalism, I varied the melodies over three octaves, used some delay and reverb, and the whole score changes between three layers of instrumentation (sine, saw, piano).
