Richard Lainhart is an avant-garde composer/performer who specializes in ambient electronic music, not to mention his credentials as a filmmaker. He first made his mark as an avant-garde composer in 1974 with White Night, a 29-minute ambient recording that predated the first of
Brian Eno's landmark ambient full-length albums,
Discreet Music (1975). Most notable among his recordings is
Ten Thousand Shades of Blue (2001), a two-CD retrospective of his work from the 1970s and '80s. ~ Jason Birchmeier
