Richard Pike - Redemption Suite I-IX: For Piano & Textures (2026) [Hi-Res]

Richard Pike's album "Redemption Suite I-IX" marks his first piano-focused record, inspired by the passing of Ryuichi Sakamoto in 2023. Pike's daily ritual of improvisation evolved into an impulsive creative process that combined morning tape-loop production on a computer with afternoon sessions on an Eavestaff minipiano. The music blends minimalism, deconstructed dub techno, clicks-and-cuts aesthetics, and analog cassette noise. The record reflects the artist's inner sense of composure, integrating the glitch soundscapes of his ambient project Deep Learning with his professional background as a television drama composer.
