It took me awhile to accept in my stubborn ear the “damaged” reverb, and I’m not sure I fully did, though by halfway in I was able to hear it meaning contrast to the otherwise simple and lovely cadence and melodic element.
Anyway, made me think. That’s a good thing. Thank you.
I think it’s a pulsating filter with noise attached. Yes the contrast is key, in this case it prevents a clean piano from ever happening. Glad effect had an effect!
