This Time / Win Bent

This Time -
This time, I'll take the time to do it better.
This time, I'll try something different.
This time, I'll use things I previously declined.
This time, I'll keep learning and growing.

Win Bent / This Time Like clockwork, every four years, like it or not, it's time to make a new ambient electronic album. This time, there are fewer guitar sounds, more piano sounds, a pre-collaboration piece, and various outside influences, but this time, we still have plenty of drones, along with music from The Lovely and Talented Susan Richter, and our ever-present windchimes.

For those of you who still buy CDs, we'd love to sell you one; for those more inclined toward downloaded music, we've got tracks available, too. Whichever you choose - and we encourage you to choose both! - these recordings are available online, as befits any 21st-century music. Thanks in advance for giving it/them a listen!
Above paragraph copied word-for-word from both previous albums' pages.

Win Bent / Stormy, Wetter

Also known as "the previous album," Stormy, Wetter is also ambient and electronic, but compared with the one before that, it leans a bit more to droning. Musically, this collection runs the gamut from A to B-and-a-half. Ethereal Ambient tones are here, as are noisy guitars over an ethereal ambient background. Free-verse piano dances across a space-filling background. Chimes fill a cathedral-like space. A classical composition turns into dense walls of sound. All instrumental, and only one tune has an identifiable beat, where New Age guitars play in a candle-lit cabin. And yes, sounds from nature provide a melody. Released in 2015, we'd be happy to sell you a copy, or you can head over to bandcamp, where you can listen for free (the whole thing, not just samples), and they've got downloadable tracks, the entire bargain-priced digital album, or the beautifully-packaged CD.

Win Bent / Wet Weather Creek

Also known as "the previous previous album," Wet Weather Creek is calm (mostly), electronic (mostly), ambient (mostly), beatless (mostly), instrumental (mostly) music (totally) inspired by windchimes, which are prominently featured throughout. A friend of mine listened to a couple of tracks, and said "I feel like I should be getting a massage!" Released in 2011, we'd be happy to sell you a copy, or you can head over to bandcamp, where you can listen for free (the whole thing, not just samples), and they've got downloadable tracks, the entire bargain-priced digital album, or the beautifully-packaged CD.

Win Bent / Core Sample

Naturally, we'd love to sell you a copy of this CD... but as of mid-2012, we're sold out. It was an extremely small print run. However, take a look on bandcamp, where you can listen for free (the whole thing, not just samples), and they've got downloadable tracks, the entire bargain-priced digital album, or the inflated-price custom CD.
