Melancholia

by William Basinski

Melancholia cover art

A collection of short tape loops recorded in the 1980s, 'Melancholia' is a fragile, haunting ambient album. The decaying sounds of piano and strings evoke a profound sense of loss and memory. It is a beautiful companion piece to 'The Disintegration Loops'.
