Watermusic
by William Basinski
Created prior to his iconic 'Disintegration Loops' project, this expansive ambient piece similarly relies on the degradation and repetition of analog tape. 'Watermusic' consists of an immensely slow, hour-long synthesizer loop originally recorded in the early 1980s, slowly undulating with aquatic, textural warmth. The composition is a meditative exercise in minimalism, emphasizing the physical deterioration of the magnetic medium.
