"A compressed piece should be just shy of combustion, like gas in an engine valve not quite at the top of its stroke. Hot and under an unstable pressure, the piece should hint at its explosive power without releasing all that potential energy. It should unsettle the reader/viewer/listener without knocking her out of her chair."
-- Devan Goldstein
