It's an example of Reich's " phase shifting " technique, where the solo instrument ( here it's Dominic Frasca's guitar ) is overdubbed against three other guitars that gradually, mesmerizingly, move out of synch.

Unlike traditional reflector and lens antennas, however, the focusing effect in a Fresnel zone antenna is achieved by controlling the phase shifting property of the surface and allows for flat or arbitrary antenna shapes.
23.
In the case of gradual phase shifting, initially the tempi of the different instruments will be almost identical, so that both parts are perceived to be sounding in unison and at the same tempo.
24.
Modulation effects like chorus, flanging, phase shifting, and time effects such as delay and looping are less commonly used with bass than with electric guitar, but they are used in some styles of music.
25.
The spin angular momentum of light offers only two orthogonal quantum states corresponding to the two states of circular polarization, and can be demonstrated to be equivalent to a combination of polarization multiplexing and phase shifting.
26.
The word reflective refers to the fact that each phase shifting element reflects back the energy in the incident wave with an appropriate phase shift . The phase shifting elements can be passive or active.
27.
Their interplay suggests the patterned, canonlike " phase shifting " of Reich's music more than it does the free-for-all of the'68 recording, which clangs and chugs and squeaks and chirps with a kind of chaotic exuberance.
28.
The word reflective refers to the fact that each phase shifting element reflects back the energy in the incident wave with an appropriate phase shift . The phase shifting elements can be passive or active.
29.
However, engineers have found a way to turn that manufacturing defect into a remarkably precise tool through a process called " phase shifting, " which makes use of interfering patterns of light to create ultrafine circuit lines.

Music writer Kyle Gann has pointed out on later use of phase shifting technique : " Though not widely used in minimalist works per se, it survived as an important archetype in postminimal music ( e . g.
