Ended Wednesday and welcomed Thursday after a swim with Piano Solos by Dustin O'Halloran, released on Splinter Records in 2004.

Dustin O'Halloran (born September 8, 1971)[2] is an American composer and pianist. Aside from releasing music as a recording artist, O'Halloran is a film and TV composer, as well as one half of ambient act A Winged Victory for the Sullen.

In 2004, O'Halloran released his first record as a solo artist, Piano Solos. He has since released three more solo records, the latest of which is Lumiere (2011), which featured contributions by Peter Broderick and Adam Wiltzie (Stars of the Lid), and was mixed by Jóhann Jóhannsson... - Wikipedia

Beautiful solo piano pieces to read in bed and ease into the world to.

Ended the weekend and welcomed a Monday off work with Salero (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack)
by Adam Wiltzie, released on Erased Tapes in 2016

“I have always said that composing music is infinitely easier when you have beautiful images to be inspired by. It was a pleasure to write a score over this captivating place of endless, glimmering salt before its impending demise. I was fascinated by this mythical space and its ability to define the identities of the people who live in its vicinity, where this vast salt flat itself would be a central character” – Adam Bryanbaum Wiltzie

Ended the week and welcomed the weekend with Atomos VII
by A Winged Victory for the Sullen, released on Erased Tapes in 2014.

..April 28, 2014 sees the first installment leading up to the release of the second full length studio album ATOMOS, and score for choreographer Wayne McGregor's long form dance piece.

..This EP also sees the involvement of Ben Frost, who composed the music for McGregor’s previous work Far...

‘While we were re-amping guitars at Greenhouse studios, Ben expressed interest and admiration in the sounds we had created. We were planning for the B-side to be a metamorphosis of part VII, and Ben seemed the obvious choice. With the multi-tracks transformed, it follows a trajectory that we had not felt comfortable with before. But with Ben's involvement and influence, it was a painless entrance to this crooked, distorted world.’ – Adam Bryanbaum Wiltzie

AIX EM KLEMM Is the moniker of the ambient music project consisting of Adam Wiltzie & Robert Donne. As Adam Wiltzie told Sadness Is In The Sky fanzine, his collaboration with Bobby Donne began when "We all met during a Texas swing of a Labradford tour that Stars of the Lid opened for back in 1996. They stayed at my house for a few days and we became close.”

A year later Wiltzie was asked to join Labradford for their Mi Media Naranja European tour of 1997 as
the sound technician. This tour also included Bruce Gilbert of the legendary band Wire who was the
opening act and joined them in the van for the entire tour. With Bruce’s nightly improvisations of MiniDisc field recording explosions running through a Sherman Filter Bank, it left a profound effect on Adam &
Bobby, and led to inspiring internal philosophical discussions on the importance of improvisation.

Welcomed sleep and greeted Thursday after my swim with Atomos the second album by ambient music duo A Winged Victory for the Sullen. The album was released on October 6, 2014 on the labels Erased Tapes and Kranky.

The album contains the music from Atomos, a dance piece by choreographer Wayne McGregor and his company Wayne McGregor Random Dance. The music was recorded in Summer 2013, in studios in Brussels, Berlin and Reykjavík. Regarding the recording process, pianist Dustin O'Halloran has commented: "We never imagined 2013 would be such an explosively creative year. The first record took us two years from start to finish, but in the micro span of time over last summer we were able to change the formula for the way we write, record, and let go. It was incredibly liberating."[10] The dance piece premiered at Sadler's Wells, London, on 9 October 2013. - Wikipedia
