Off Land was formed in 2004 by Tim Dwyer, an artist and musician from New England who's sound was originally shaped by "net" label culture's collaborative atmosphere of experimentation and peer feedback. His sound has been influenced by meditative music such as Javanese gamelan and minimal drone. Dwyer's music is sparse yet texturally intricate, lying in sort of some electro-acoustic limbo between Namlook's more dusty ambient collaborations, literal Phonography and contemporary classical experimentalism.
Different layers of stretched sounds are combined exquisitely all together forming a continuous and straight timeline that it's transforming in slow motion.
