Album Notes & Community Reviews

Continuing his highly personal archival series, the original Genesis guitarist pivoted entirely toward purely atmospheric electronic music. 'Private Parts & Pieces VII : Slow Waves, Soft Stars' abandons his usual pastoral acoustic instrumentation for vast, drifting synthesizer soundscapes. The project offers a soothing, highly introspective take on the burgeoning new age ambient movement of the era.
