The first three selections are from Kiva's original compositions, followed by samples of overtone singing variations. The first three of these contain only one track of vocals. The last one is multi-tracked.
- Tuva on Rye - From 'The Ladder', this is the main theme of the song with overtone singing
- Regret - From 'The Ladder', the clip begins with a chorus of overtone singing
- In the Flesh - From 'Pulse', this is the complete song, with several variations of overtone singing and vocables (wordless vocalizing)
- vibrato and dynamics - Makes use of these musical qualities, along with some counter-movement.
- falsetto fundamentals - Uses high falsetto pitches as the fundamentals, generating harmonics another two octaves above.
- overtone 'yodeling' - A rhythmic clip using the 'h' to create yodel-like blips.
- Trading the Future - A little piece containing glottal technique and 'falsetto' fundamentals
