Lightnesses Vol. I & II sees Doyle create what we might understand as true ambient music - that is, music intended for the background that wasn't composed as such, but allowed to blossom out of the setting of some rules and parameters, played by sounds he created and then resampled.

The deceptively simple, droning pieces are unlike anything Doyle has made before or since.

"During their creation I'd often take photographs of the light coming in through the windows of the two houses I lived in during their creation.

I'd post these on social media and they became quite popular parts of my output. This music was intended to accompany those visuals.

The first volume's photo is a double exposure of the sun shining in on my notebook and my hand, whereas the photo for the second volume was taken in Joshua Tree Park, California as I saw our tail lights illuminate one of the trees."
