In "Repeater, quietus," composer Mads Emil Dreyer works with small percussion instruments and electronics. Contact-microphones are attached to the instruments, capturing sound, and surface-transducers, a type of small speaker component, that release sounds. This setup creates a series of small, closed circuits where what the microphones capture is sent out by the transducers, then picked up by the microphones and sent out by the transducers again. This process repeats over and over, transforming the instruments into small, independent and quite fragile feedback loops, where the electronic is completely embedded in the acoustic.
