Bloedarend Gorgeous minimal ambient/contemporary classical pieces. Really immersive stuff. Love it. Favorite track: Ending (part 1).

editions vaché Some of the finest music being made in any category ( if you really need categories) on the planet. Imbued with a sense of space that is unique to Seaman's methodology, we can not give a higher recommendation. -ss/tm

Dan Maharry All of eilean's releases are beautiful meditations, but this one is exceptional. Favorite track: Shadow Detail.

brantly An absolutely fantastic aural pilgrimage from Bill Seaman. Somewhat like a meditative miasma of Ludovico Einaudi, John Carpenter, PBS documentary background music and the peregrine drones of Oren Ambarchi

Michael LoCicero EILEAN releases need to be purchased as soon as they go up for sale because they go SOLD OUT in a hurry. This fine example here by Mr. Seaman is proof all too well

_________________________________________________

Bill Seaman's music often combines his own structured piano improvisations, composed selections of samples, as well as elaborate computational and analogue abstractions. As a media theorist, he is interested in notions of intelligent systems and computational creativity. His recent collaborations include Light Folds – The Seaman and the Tattered Sail with Craig Tattersall (Facture) – The Humble Bee , The Boats; Minor Distance with Daniel Howe (Cotton Goods); and s_straits with John Supko (Cotton Goods). He has been active as a media artist, making the soundtracks to all of his works historically.
