Prompted by the mention of Youtube, I looked at a few of my videos of a few years ago, concentrating on soundscapes & musique concrète. For most captions were unavailable but, quite strangely & randomly, one came up with the following word sequence: 'hai hai ya Aku nggak Tahu hai', which turned out to be in Malay &, not counting the repetitions of 'hai', means: 'Hi, I don't know' (according to Google Translate). Strangely again, when I revisited the video the captions had disappeared.
Anyway, I recorded this word sequence a few times & after applying numerous repetitions & effects, this track was the result.
