Over the course of three albums, Eluvium (a.k.a. Matthew Cooper) has crawled from total obscurity to his rightful place as one of America's premier modern composers. His fan base includes Death Cab For Cutie, Explosions In The Sky, and The Album Leaf. In fact, of the nearly twenty new Temporary Residence releases last year, Eluvium's "Talk Amongst The Trees" showed up on more Top 10 lists than all others combined. Even more surprising is the fact that his music is missing two traditionally crowd-pleasing elements: a beat and a voice. This record is a companion piece to "Talk Amongst The Trees", and it showcases both the neoclassical piano-driven elegance and the tidal drones that he's become almost famous for.

New Eluvium CD...
No beats to speak of, just pleasant warm tones conjuring a sense of place. Most welcome on these cold Ohio days in December.
