These presets break up a chord in short single notes ("grains"). Use a dry percussive sound and send it through a BIG reverb like the free ValhallaSupermassive.
The final result is a lush, textured sound floor that can add depth to any Chillout or Ambient track. You can use it to enhance pads with another layer of ambience, or you can leave it as it is. Tip: Automate the volume or the filter of the sound source to add some texture or density to the mix from time to time.
PS: Do you like Chillout? Then ChilloutEngine will be an interesting tool for you. It contains many different presets that are very useful for all kinds of Chillout genres.
