about

Wondrous, cinematic soundworlds and tone poems, woven with inspired combinations of orchestral and acoustic instruments, electronica, and sounds from the natural world.

The tracks are presented as a series of ‘conversations’ between and among the instruments. It’s rather similar to how symphonies are put together – not featuring one instrument or one section for very long – but more about the ‘ensemble’, all together, over several movements.

Also, the tracks are arranged more like ‘songs’ typically are. That is, (for the most part) there is an actual beginning, a middle, and an ending – with less emphasis on the ‘drone’ qualities common in so-called ambient music and more emphasis on actual structure.
.
I hope you enjoy listening and experiencing The Exquisite Now as much as I enjoyed making it.

Please note that in purchasing the entire album (as opposed to just a few cuts) you will hear the crossfades that occur between some of the tracks. In this way you may experience the album with a better sense of continuity.

Lapsed into Silence
by Andrew Lahiff

This music is like breathing itself and probably just as necessary. Lahiff’s work is fairly new to me, but regardless-it is timeless, sublime, and holy beyond any spoken language. Magnificent music. George Wallace

muichi motsu
by Maneki Neko

Such delicate eloquent power does this music have! With brilliant use of high harmonics in the chord structures and floating, laserlike beams of sound heard only in Heaven, I am taken to a New Beyond. George Wallace
