180g vinyl. Adrift is the beautiful debut album from UK composer-pianist Steve Gibbs. Acting loosely as a reissue of Gibbs' hugely popular Bandcamp release of a similar collection of pieces, this expanded, re-mastered, heavyweight vinyl edition paints a clear picture of a composer mastering his form.

That Gibbs' music has already been used in various film, TV and dance productions is testament to its immensely evocative qualities.

Gibbs has clocked over one million plays on his SoundCloud page and has been recommended on social media by Olafur Arnalds, Lowercase Noises and Fabrizio Paterlini.

Passages of soft microsound comparable to Alva Noto & Ryuichi Sakamoto's duet albums or Mika Vainio merge with lusher cinemascapes akin to Clint Mansell and Max Richter.

His instrumentation - piano, strings, gentle electronics, occasional guitars - is used with a similar sense of vision as Goldmund, Olafur Arnalds, Dustin O'Halloran, Stars of the Lid, the piano solos of Arvo Pärt.

"What just happened!? Emotion and ambience at its best, its very best... I'm overwhelmed.

A masterpiece." - Echoes and Dust
