Track: Settler (Eluvium Remix)

Balmorhea (pronounced Bal-more-ay) is a minimalist instrumental ensemble from Austin, Texas, that was formed in 2006 by Rob Lowe and Michael Muller. The band cite the likes of Ludovico Einaudi, The Six Parts Seven, Max Richter and Arvo Pärt among their influences.

The band self-released their first album, self-titled "Balmorhea", in April 2007, and their second album "Rivers Arms in February" 2008, and released a limited EP in the fall of 2008. The group released their third full-length album, "All is Wild, All is Silent" on Western Vinyl Records. Their fourth full-length album, "Constellations", was released in February 2010 also on Western Vinyl. 

You can buy some Balmorhea over at Western Vinyl, and pick up a lovely live album from Sint-Elisabethkerk on Bandcamp. The below video is from a special remix album, which features Eluvium, Machinefabriek and Helios among its contributors.

And yes, it's in 2 parts.
