| Disregarding the bass and drums, the melody for 5-10 seconds or
| so from 4m27s sounds similar to the generic 'computer sounds'

| If anyone's curious to see complete pieces built out of this sort
| of technique, check out Conlon Nancarrow's Studies for Player
| Piano (he does some other pretty crazy polytempo stuff too, like
| changing the speeds of different parts at different rates).
|
| Personal favorites that use the same polytempo technique are No.
| 36 [1] and No. 37 [2].
|
| I've been studying his music lately and am working on a piece
| with similar rhythmic experimentation, so happy to try to answer
| questions!

| sung at the tone of that note.
|
| Anyone else hearing illusionary singing in there?
|
| The place I first got that illusion was around 3:24, and I was
| listening with my eyes closed which I think might make it more
| likely to hear issusions.

| idea that I'm aware of. He gave the notes a slower envelope so
| they sometimes seem to merge into a single tone. The source is
| also (not so surprisingly) quite short.

| The video description says 0.2 bpm difference between these

| What chord does he play?
