Eluvium - The Well Meaning Professor

[AbbaForensis]

I only really like the songs where he's in piano, and I don't feel like having to listen to all of the songs I've downloaded to do so (I have about fifty?). Some of his songs aren't pretty and they all do the same kind of gradual build that takes, like, five to ten minutes. I haven't really found anything that I like of Eluvium's, besides this... Any suggestions? =/

I don't know, why i love it so much... It's not music, it's something like story of sounds written in my head always, when i hear it, always in different ways...

I learned about Eluvium from NPR's All Songs Considered around the time right before Similes was released. His earlier albums especially Copia and Accidental Memory are a lot better, though

Amazing music...

[nothke]

It's so simple, sounds more like improvisation, yet so beautiful and relaxing.. Reminds me of Wim Mertens, cause I used to enjoy with his music as well before..

[fizzgigify]

I love how it builds and builds until he's just smacking the keys, then it slowly, quietly fades. that's life right there people.

when I first started listening to eluvium, my first was indoor swimming at the space station, I thought he was alright, downloaded it, tried a few off lambent material, was like, yeah, eh, and that was all. and then i loved indoor swimming, then i loved i will not forget that i have forgotten, lambent material, tried his piano, listened to this song in particular i remember, didn't work for me, and now I love his piano

he's grown on me so wonderfully

i always thought of Chomsky when i heard this song. he really is a well meaning professor. almost so well meaning his intentions arent comprehended by those he intends to influence based on the technical requirements of communicating what he wants too.so he is a sad individual indeed who is only well meaning.so i thought this song fits him because of the emotional content :)

one mistake at 6:39 but aside from that I love it

[Emedril]

@mindvibe I think that's not a mistake...

I love it :)

[genericusername337]

@Emedril

I love it too, but I'm still not sure whether or not it was. I think it might've been and he left it in there because it works so well

[sociopathicregret]

@mindvibe it was probably intentional

[2Feet1Wheel]

this song is incredibly amazing...took my breathe away...

[izuzak]

i love how the song builds up and just explodes between 6:00 and 7:00... and yet, the whole song is quite calming. fabulous!

[andrewgrig]

[2Feet1Wheel]
