Their performances appear throughout the album, sampled and recontextualised, influencing its melodic language, pacing and tone.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMuch of the music was shaped directly by its surroundings. Field recordings were gathered across Hiriketiya, and instruments were played wherever it felt necessary. This included rocks beside the ocean where waves set irregular rhythms, tall grasslands where wind and insects bled into the recordings, and open decks overlooking the sea. Round Table captures this approach most clearly. Recorded while sitting together overlooking the ocean, a large steel table in front of the group gradually became part of the composition, used instinctively as an unplanned percussive element.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe album gathers fragments, recordings, electronic\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"bcTruncateMore\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003esketches and field sounds, assembling them into a continuous listening experience shaped by place and recollection. MOND owners Jess and Renato foster an environment that supports artists without directing them, creating space for focus, trust and connection.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe result is a record shaped by Hiriketiya’s enclosed bay, dense vegetation, heat and night air. Music formed through listening, restraint, missed recordings and the sensation of being temporarily held by a place.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cpre style=\"white-space: pre-wrap; text-align: justify; font-family: unset;\"\u003e\u003c\/pre\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA1.
