Barely Running System

An experiment. Again. Because that's (part of) what this is for! At a composition workshop yesterday, someone mentioned "melody, harmony, and bass" in a sense that those were the parts that made up a piece. Now, I'd been thinking in terms of motor-interlock (context), bass-percussion (reinforce context), motif (a short theme), melody line, and "solo." That's a lot more things than "melody, harmony, and bass." So here you are. Stripped. Minimal. Does it work at all? I didn't think so, so I did its sister song, https://soundcloud.com/amadoohland/never-change-a-running-system .
