Balmorhea co-founder and multi-instrumentalist Michael A. Muller deepens his compositional exploration with Mirror Music, his debut album for DG. A study in reflection, the album features 10&nbsp;tracks created in collaboration with 11 international artists. Each piece initiated from a foundation of Muller&rsquo;s ambient compositions, written on Mellotron, Oberheim Two-Voice synthesizer and Rhodes organ. He then invited a hand-picked group of fellow artists to contribute to specific tracks.
Mirror Music opens with tactile, open-tuned 12-string guitar from Danny Paul Grody, segueing into shimmering pedal steel guitar from Chuck Johnson, then into Vestals&rsquo; operatic apparitions. Further tracks feature the breathy bass clarinet of Jonathan Sielaff and guitar from Ilyas Ahmed; the lonesome desert timbres of Tortoise&rsquo;s Douglas McCombs; skittering rhythms from Indonesian-Australian percussionist Rama Parwata; modular synthesized reflections from Jefre Cantu-Ledesma; sonorous vocals from Hania Rani; soft, reverberant synthesis from Jon Porras; and emotive cello from Clarice Jensen.

Title

Before Barbed Wire - Balmorhea

Before Barbed Wire is an homage to the late American contemporary pianist George Winston. In the words of Balmorhea: "We got to know this beautiful piece of music when we were children listening to the Winston version from his seminal album &lsquo;Plains.&rsquo; The track is fragile, nostalgic and quintessentially American with its pastoral and wide-open gestures. There was always an openness to his music, something at once from the landscape and the heart. We hope this version picks up where he left off. The cover image, originally made for geological survey purposes, comes from the same series of photographs used for Balmorhea&rsquo;s 2022 EP Solanales.
