While (1996, CD)

Thymme Jones

Five piano “quartets” (recorded on 4-track) with hypnotically intertwining phrases.

Listen to a clip of Open from While.

The Goal Of Action Is Contemplation

Thymme Jones – The Goal Of Action Is Contemplation (2014)

 
Thymme’s first solo album in eighteen years.  This one is a bit of a companion to “While” (the
piano fest from 1996), in that it is atmospheric/meditative in nature. And vocals-less. The one
big glaring difference is: It is almost completely lacking in piano. This scarcity is compensated for,
however, with many synthesizers, banjos, air organ and several other sonically strange bedfellows.
Entirely homemade and handwritten.
