Sounds Like:

Klangeigenschaften - sehr grosse Lautstärken, systematische Tempovariationen, perpetuierte Motivwiederholungen - sind nicht unerheblich. Die Destabilisierung von Bezugssystemen der Wahrnehmung, etwa durch die Überlagerung unvereinbarer Rhythmen - bei denen der Hörer dann zum Beispiel nicht mehr ausmachen kann, ob ein Zweier - oder Dreier-Takt, eine extrem langsame oder eine extrem schnelle Untergliederung gegeben ist -, begünstigt Sprünge, Systemsprünge des Perzeptiven und erzeugt die Bereitschaft für ein Ausser-sich-Geraten.
