Will Long is Celer, an ambient music composer living in Japan and therefore, a relatively close expatriate neighbor of mine. He releases a lot of music, as is the fashion with some highly competent composers these days, but his work feels like a cut above. Though this album has 12 tracks, they are rather short compared to some of his other albums, where one track can clock in at over an hour. The material is dark, but not claustrophobic, and quite easy on the ears if you’re listening on headphones. Really, consider following his Bandcamp site. He’s constantly putting out something good.
