There's a jazzy feel to the basic riffs [in Tread on the Trail] while some of the metrical complexities that the layerings produce recall Nancarrow's player-piano pieces, especially as Ottaviucci uses multi-tracking to combine the sounds of several pianos. The result is fascinating, while his rhythmically strict performance of the studies gives them a compulsive intensity.
