Dylan Henner has shared his take on minimalist cornerstone In C .
One of the most important pieces of music coughed up by the 20th century, In C stands as one of Terry Riley s true masterpieces.
In the hands of Dylan Henner this oft-tackled piece takes on a new light, with the left-field artist bringing his own personality and passions to the table.
Part of new album project Great Prairie Plains: Studies Of American Minimalism (out tomorrow, in fact) it s a hypnotic, 25 minute excursion into audio possibility.
He comments. In C is a piece of music I own in many forms. I have the original, a Bang On A Can take, an Acid Mothers Temple, Adrian Utley s, and the African Express arrangement curated by Damon Albarn. Each one is unique and special. It s a really unique and special piece.

In 2020, there were many ways to understand the year in music; this week, we re considering four. Even more than mindfulness or self-care, chill has morphed into a context-flattening buzzword, not quite a genre of music but certainly a tool used to categorize it, especially as a beacon of calm in your streaming app of choice. Still, it might be just the right term for the palliative care so many of us have spent the months indoors desperately self-administering, by way of whatever meditative media we could find. The musicians who massaged our temples for us took more than one approach: some immersive soundscapes, some acoustic lullabies, one wild pop-punk experiment. We couldn t conquer the year s chaos on our own, and on some days it conquered us but in our better moments, we could at least try our hardest to chill. Here are some of the songs and albums that helped.
