Deep and powerful drone compositions recorded live at Epsilon Spires Church performed on organ, accordion, contrabass and cello by Ben Richter, Mike Bullock, and Laura Cetilia. Rich and meditative, arcing past, present and future. This Sedimental release is a monumental document from avant-garde composer Ben Richter.

"This music was made possible through the kind invitation of Executive Director Jamie Mohr to a winter residency at Epsilon Spires, a non-profit performance center housed in a historic former church in Brattleboro, Vermont, with the opportunity to compose a set of works for their 1906 three-manual Estey pipe organ. Due to the frigid temperatures, the organ was sounding almost 60 cents flat from A=440Hz. In combination with Laura Cetilia and Mike Bullock's intonationally flexible A=440 low string instruments and my A=444 quarter-tone accordion, this created a unique pitch landscape and dark atmosphere from which emerged three meditations on the ripples, pulsations, and slow transformations of memory." --Ben Richter
