The title "Spun" is a play on the term Fortspinnung, which can be translated to "spinning forth." After a slow & ominous introduction, the quick perpetual motion of the piece (primarily set in 12/8 meter) creates the impression of a dizzying spin from beginning to end, taking the listener on a journey through many moods & emotions.
