Eaton, Tom
Oster, Downes + Eaton - Seven Conversations

Artist: Jeff Oster, Vin Downes, Tom Eaton
P: 2024
Spontaneous improvisations excursions into unknown sonic territories created in real time by three veteran musicians, each with deep histories of creating expressive and emotional masterpieces. a shimmering blend of oster's liquid flugelhorn, downes' dreamy electric guitar, and eaton's watercolor touch on keyboards and bass. At times soft and emotional, at times driving and propulsive, the album explores deeply ambient territory across seven in-studio improvisations. "seven conversations is a smooth, blissed out, and chilled (not chill-out, though) excursion into a world of synthesizer textures, minimalistic piano, bluesy horns, and laid back electric guitar one could have this amazing album on repeat and have one's day pass in a blissed state of, dare I say it, utterly beautiful relaxation... The entire album was recorded in real time. Yeah, that's right. Credits: Jeff Oster: Flugelhorn and trumpet Vin Downes: Electric guitar Tom Eaton: Keyboards, loops, programming, and bass Produced, recorded, mixed, and mastered by Tom Eaton.

Tom Eaton - How it Happened

Artist: Tom Eaton
P: 2019

Eaton invites the listener into his world with the slow-moving and mysterious atmosphere of the opening track, “Ice”, which clears space for “An Unexpected Opening” with its delicate piano and synth tones that slowly blossom like a flower cautiously opening itself to the wider world. This is followed by “MK, And How It Happened”, which has the feeling of a melodic yet melancholy memory that lingers, circling through time before giving way to the atmospheric mist of “The Slow River”. The quiet stillness of “Later, At Night, By The Lake” gives rise to a growing uneasy tension, while “Genezen” invokes a feeling of solitude, lost and drifting, yet still surrounded by beauty. The interplay between piano and guitar on “The Fog And The Lifting” offers a welcoming return to a safe and peaceful place before the floating ambience of “Until Her Eyelids Flutter Open” seems to momentarily slow time in an attempt to lengthen those last lingering moments of a wonderful dream. Having spent the past 25 years as a full time producer and engineer with credits on hundreds of recordings, Tom Eaton is certainly no stranger to crafting delicate musical spaces. His pensive soundscapes stir the emotions and touch the soul as the lush textures and quiet melodies of HOW IT HAPPENED deliver a multi-dimensional immersion into the artist’s vulnerable space, where he investigates the amorphous connections shared by us all.
