Forward/Return

The Album Leaf

Seven tracks of liquid Rhodes piano and clockwork percussion. A warm, cinematic cocoon that feels like watching a storm from the safety of a dry room.

September 18, 2012 · Eastern Glow Recordings

Find on Amazon

A gentle, rhythmic meditation that feels like finding peace in a quiet, dimly lit room.

Moments Worth Listening For
The way the rhythmic pulse in Stretched Home slowly dissolves into a wash of ambient piano and static.
The transition into Under the Night where the drums take on a more urgent, driving character against the hazy synths.
The final shimmering glockenspiel notes of Dark Becomes Light that hang in the air long after the track ends.
