Jonathan Kramer Music Theory - 1st Example

- Arcane Roots debut album Blood & Chemistry is made up of ten tracks. 2 of which 'Sacred Shapes & Slow' seemingly have a couple minutes of an interlude at the end. However these interludes are the same song, slightly different in structure and style but when placed toegtheralmostcreate a full 4 minute song.
- This can link to the following points in Jonathan Kramer's theory:
- shows disdain for the often unquestioned value of structural unity
- avoids totalizing forms (e.g., does not want entire pieces to be tonal or serial or cast in a prescribed formal mold

- includes fragmentations and discontinuities
