About this set: This set was sort of the culmination of techniques Diversion Program has been working on since late 2017 (slower tempo, long decay 808 style bass, crunchy distortion, 2000’s hip hop reminiscent grooves). All sorts of styles came about as something he considered this to be one1 fluid idea stretched out over time. He noted, "I have never used a microphone in my sets before until this set, and it was very liberating. I could use my voice, something that I consider to be a very versatile instrument. I can use it when, and how I wanted to use it. It is essentially a new way for me to improvise.
