about

Piano Peace is not a typical Fast Cakes album, The only instrument is piano, and there are no words. It is intentionally presented as background music, best listened at slightly lower volume whilst relaxing or doing mundane tasks. It's minimalist compositions hope to encourage daydreaming and reflection.
Thirty-three of the thirty-four tunes are based on compositions originally written in the 1980's and 1990's, with one brand new song entitled "Lucky". All but two are new recordings, with "Song For Rael" and "The Holding Section" being the original recordings from the 1980's. A "proper" full band album is planned for release in 2019 and it will be called "The Past Is The Mother Of The Present".
