Matt Baber/Sanguine Hum Solo Album

[Troopers For Sound]

MATT BABER - SUITE FOR PIANO AND ELECTRONICS

Howdy Folks!

Just a heads up for those here who might be interested...I've got my first solo CD release coming out on the Bad Elephant label on June 15th It's called Suite For Piano and Electronics and it is...well, a suite for piano and electronics There are some links below for those who wish to explore a bit further, but basically I'd describe it as a minimalist modern classical solo piano album but set against backdrops of rhythmic/ambient electronica. Think Steve Reich, Philip Glass and perhaps bits of Keith Emerson alongside Aphex Twin, Boards of Canada and William Basinski. Perhaps the Sanguine Hum tracks Phosphor and Just a Prelude are sort of in the same area too. Here's a 3min sample track up on Soundcloud that will give you an idea:

And here's a time-lapse video that I made to accompany Part 6 of the Suite:

A nice quiet room, this is, eh? Hmm... you could hear a pin drop (figuratively speaking).

Well, the album is very good. You know how i feel about it. Hopefully others who have it will chime in soon

All the best to you and the new release,

A quick bump with a couple of things for those who may be interested...

Firstly, all pre-orders made before June 15th will be getting an exclusive bonus track called Something's Coming - a drum and piano based loop piece that gradually unfolds various synth melodies and patterns on top as it builds...one of my favourite pieces from my archive of stuff, and not available anywhere else. Pre-orders at: https://mattbaber.bandcamp.com

And secondly, here's a lovely review of the album courtesy of Progradar:

Great review, Matt! Well deserved, yep

[aith01]

Yes, congrats Matt! A very nice review. I just pre-ordered the CD by the way.

Not to derail this thread, but I am curious: Are you guys working on a follow-up to Now We Have Light? That was one of my most-played albums from 2015.
