April 2024: "The Hours"

Several years ago a Bandcamp fan wrote to me asking for longer versions of my (already!) long ambient songs. I obliged and started putting hour-long versions of specific pieces he requested on Bandcamp. I called them "audio environments" because the music, when I get it right, offers a sense of space: a real or imagined place to spend time.

Over time my approach to making this kind of music has changed, and I've been really happy with the last several environments in particular. "The Days Fall Away" is the 21st hour-long piece I've made, but none of these long pieces has ever been outside of the Bandcamp world... until now.

The Hours collects five of these hour-long excursions into one (yes, five hour) album, stream-able on April 1st on all the music platforms. It's excellent music for slowing down your heart rate and clearing your mind. I hope you enjoy spending time in these little worlds I've made out of music.
