section1 release a collection of solo piano music. piano1 features original solo pieces from 12 artists including Kelly Moran, Hand Habits, Youth Lagoon and more, pressed on crystal clear vinyl.
A record for slowing down, healing, seeking out calm wherever you can find it, the songs on piano1 highlight the beauty and healing power of piano music, straddling the lines of contemporary classical, experimental and ambient.
The compilation is as much about showcasing the artists involved as it is showcasing the piano as an instrument and how different artists approach their creative relationship with it.
Brian Eno's famous quote ("as ignorable as it is interesting") was the guiding light while sourcing contributions.
