[TOMT] [music] I recovered a corrupted (or extremely experimental?) audio file from a hard drive and I'm wondering if anyone can identify the track(s) used or if it's an actual song

Here I uploaded it to youtube to try to get it ContentID'd but that didn't happen.
I was given some old wiped hard drives from the late 90s-mid 2000s, I ran file recovery software on them because I was bored, and I got a bunch of aiff files, this was the second one I listened to, it sounds so cool that I wonder if it was an actual (very experimental) song.

If it isn't a real song then my theory for why it exists is that the drive I got this from was in a RAID array and the way that it sounds could've been my recovery software interpreting the striped data of several audio files as one file, like if there were chunks of a bunch of audio files that were being written to the RAID array at the same time.

I've got 1.5gb of aiff files (169 of them) that I recovered and I've only listened to a few but the audio of some of them overlaps so that makes me lean towards the corrupted file theory.
Finally finished up looking through them, peep it if you want, as an album or as the raw files (well, converted to mp3).
