    About this album

    A Rainbow In Curved Air is a landmark of minimalism and one of Terry Riley’s most influential recordings. Issued in 1969, it distilled his interest in repetition, improvisation and electronic texture into a hypnotic, forward-looking statement that helped open the door to ambient and experimental electronic music. The title piece and Poppy Nogood and the Phantom Band use layered organ, saxophone and tape delay to create drifting patterns that feel both meditative and propulsive. Long admired by composers, rock musicians and electronic producers alike, the album remains a key bridge between avant-garde music and the wider underground.
