Hi Todd, I'm happy your album came out so good - as of one can hear in the video - and I think you're saying something really interesting too in that video! When you're talking about how live looping took you to the next level as a music creator. I too have experienced this "transformation of senses" and many others as well. It is about developing the necessary intellectual tools for working with options in layering without the need to hear them first (as is the sampling artist's curse). Fact is that if you can not imagine something it doesn't exist within your creative pallet. But what happens when one spends hours and days playing with a looper is that these new senses starts to grow in you and after a while you may even develop your own names for different kinds of blending certain types of layers from the same musical instrument. Not just "narcissist orchestration" IMHO but an amazing new field of untapped beauty within every single musical instrument.
