Editor's review

Using just a piano, Eluvium (Matthew Cooper) creates delicate daydream soundtracks--lilting melodies that gently repeat and build, offering listeners a sense of solitude but also stability. The lyrical minimalism of Erik Satie and Brian Eno are points of reference for this anti-classical virtuoso.

Biography

Born in Tennessee and raised in Louisville, KY, Matthew Cooper relocated to Portland, OR several years back and has since spent many a night holed up in his house transforming the vibrations in his brain into sweeping walls of elegant noise. With a depth ranging from fragile to glacial, he takes dense layers of guitars and pianos and builds them into an awe-inspiring fortress around himself. Resting comfortably and confidently in the spirits of Brian Eno's most accomplished ambient pieces, Eluvium is a freakishly beautiful affair. If it was ever possible for a warm gust of wind to send chills through every bone in your body, then Eluvium is that warm wind.
