This plugin allows Foobar to decode the MLP audio. It also will mixdown the 5 channel audio to stereo if you don't have a 5.1 surround system connected to your computer.

The sounds I made for this album are from a variety of acoustic instruments, including trumpet, panpipes, voice, bamboo and clay flutes, strings and even a gong. These sounds are layered with other samples with more personal meaning, like my grandmother's old, slightly out of tune upright piano and leaves that blew through my yard one day. The sounds are processed by layering, convolving, inverting as well as stretching them out over time. The electric guitar strains and a bass guitar softly thread though the music now and then. The effect is a very calming impressionistic sound. It's less structured muted quality is like sounds that are remembered so it tends to inspire a state of nostalgia in the listener. From start to finish the album took about two years to create.
