Ultraviolet - Kelly Moran (2018)

Moran made this record for electronics and “prepared piano,” which is a John Cage invention that basically means the piano has various not-intended-for-piano materials sitting on top of its strings to make odd and unexpected noises along with the normal piano sounds.

While some prepared piano music seems grating to me, Moran has found a good use for it: using the odd tone to add texture to otherwise smooth music for synth and piano.

No tracks called out, because it’s worth listening all the way through. very intersting stuff.
