minimalist and electronic composers such as Arvo Pärt, Zbigniew Preisner, Gavin Bryars, and Henryk
Górecki, as well as Talk Talk, post-rock artists Labradford, and ambient innovator Brian Eno. Their
songs are largely beatless soundscapes, composed of droning, effects-treated guitars along with piano,
strings, and horns; volume swells and feedback fill the gap of rhythmic instruments, providing dynamic
movement within the songs.
