Here is my remix of Steve Reich's "2x5 Movement II: Fast" I titled "2x5 Movement II: HYPER." This remix was created especially for submission to the Inbaba Music Steve Reich Remix Contest. I thought it would be fun to apply Reich's methods to Reich's music. Here I have modulated the amplitude, frequency, phase, delay, and tempo of the contest material in as many ways as I could think of. You can hear more 2x5 remixes here
