Pittsburgh-based composer Philip Thompson presents Separate Self, his debut release on Ravello Records. Thompson writes that the release is "a reflection of the creative energy that comes from being deeply rooted in a vibrant artistic community." True to this communal spirit, several of the pieces were composed in collaboration with artists form different disciplines - from robotics and dance with Separate Self to visual art with Nocturnes to film with the score to Will Zavala's documentary Virgil Cantini: The Artist in Public. Thompson’s music is delicate and atmospheric, the distinct sounds of his instrumental palette shifting and rearranging across his musical canvas. In other moments, he captures a kinetic current, sending sounds rippling and tumbling into one another.
