The music on this recording was created by Frontier through the use of multiple-input resonance electronics during a live recording session on May 8, 1997. Multiple-input resonance involves controlling the sympathetic vibrations created by independent sound sources within a closed system. For these compositions, three sets of guitars and amplifiers were placed in a sealed acoustic chamber, with the amplifiers aimed inward along a triangular layout. This arrangement of instruments was designed to permit the triggering of the natural oscillating frquencies unique to each guitar. Additionally, each guitar feedback signal was run through its own set of analog signal processors before being amplified, creating three distinct tone sources. The composition of the four pieces on this recording resulted from controlling the amplitude and frequency of the feedback generated by each one of the three guitars.
