Spectral Acoustic utilizes a variety of instruments and sound sources to create evocative and atmospheric tracks ranging from the dazzling and euphoric to the dark and mysterious. Though heavy on experimental, layered guitar textures and processed synths, this Pacific-Northwest music is frequently melodic and accessible, calling to mind the ambient work of Brian Eno, the scores of David Lynch collaborator Angelo Badalamenti, and the avant-garde spirit of early Warp Records artists such as Aphex Twin and Boards of Canada.
Spectral Acoustic (aka Parker Hill) has been composing music in his ever-evolving, yet modest home studio for the last two decades. He has played guitar, electric piano, and synthesizer in a number of bands, including Sun Vow, who worked with Steve Fisk on their debut album in the mid-2000s. He has self-released a number of records under different names, including The Felt City (2007) as Prkr, which received airplay on Seattle's KEXP radio station. A self-taught musician and producer, Hill continues to obsessively refine and develop his sound.
Drum machine polyrhythms build up as gorgeous and wistful synths drift amongst repeating melodic figures. Simultaneously hopeful and melancholic, this cool and breezy tune conjures images of coastal driving and time-lapses of clouds over beautiful landscapes. Instrumental, Electronic, IDM
A synth symphony in four parts. Delicate, flute-like chords shift over a rhythm reminiscent of a helicopter, then morph into a wintry guitarscape before a pulsing beat suddenly drops and propels the track forward. In the end we are submerged in an Eno-esque aquatic fog. Instrumental, Electronic, IDM
An innocent but spooky and reverb-drenched piano melody starts out like a wind-up music box before being sideswiped by a slow and heavy trip-hop beat. Layers of synth slowly build to a marimba-driven climax. Dark, mystical, and supernatural yet perfectly suited for urban scenery too. Instrumental, Electronic, IDM
Ominous synths underlie complex hip-hop beats while emotional melodies swirl around overhead — captivating, otherworldly, and deceptively minimal. Perfect for dramatic scenes, from the stylish and urban to the mysterious and natural. Instrumental, Electronic, IDM
A serene overture of warm, synthesized horns swelling in and out of silence like soft rays of light just before a sunrise. Perfectly suited for peaceful, meaningful moments and grand scenery. Instrumental, Electronic, Drone music
Warm, soft arpeggiated synth notes gently echo through large empty spaces. A minor-key mysterious chord progression shifts to a more hopeful vibe momentarily. Instrumental, Electronic, Drone music
An energetic, 80's analog synth lays a thick, melodic foundation for occasional synth horns and a gentle modulated, rhythmic pattern bouncing across the stereo field. Instrumental, Electronic, IDM
Driving retro mid-tempo synths reminiscent of eighties cult classic soundtracks form a backbone for ethereal, almost sinister atmospheric pads. The juxtaposition of the ominous and the beautiful forms an ideal soundtrack for emotional sci-fi or a supernatural thriller montage. Instrumental, Electronic, IDM
Multilayered, 1980s warm synth pads shift around like ocean waves crashing on a sunny beach or cloud shadows sliding across a vast landscape. Hopeful and grand, yet slightly mysterious, this track would be great for opening credits, a nature documentary, a montage, time lapse, or film trailer. Instrumental, Electronic, Drone music
Busy robots are building in their workshop while a pretty day seeps in through the panoramic windows. Or you're flying over an expansive futuristic metropolis at sunrise. Optimistic about the future? This synth anthem provides the perfect soundtrack for the technological utopia in your mind's eye. Instrumental, Electronic, Experimental
Strange, catchy synth arpeggios flit above a moody electric piano chord progression while a heavy, slow but bouncy and driving beat propels everything along. A hopeful interlude comes and goes, providing uplifting contrast to the dramatic main theme. Great for ending credits or a cool montage. Instrumental, Electronic, IDM
Vintage synth arpeggios and drones dance around each other as hip-hop beats shuffle underneath and linear, delayed guitar melodies soar overhead. Driving, heavy and gorgeous, this track would work great in a sci-fi, supernatural, dramatic or indie production; also perfect for a montage or timelapse. Instrumental, Electronic, IDM
Rainy Blade Runner synths swell as a Moog arpeggio loops over a heavy beat that seems to constantly shift forward. Mogwai-like guitars and a looping piano create a skyward droning texture that gives the track a grand sense of atmosphere. Great for a dramatic or climactic scene in drama or sci-fi. Instrumental, Electronic, IDM
