Each note is a gentle caress, a soothing balm for the weary soul.
The album opens with “Another Part of You,” and as the piano’s melody cascades like soft spring rain, one is instantly transported to a realm of serenity.
Wilier’s ability to paint vivid sonic landscapes with his compositions is remarkable. His music is a testament to the notion that sound can transcend language, evoking emotions and conjuring imagery that words alone cannot capture.
“When the Longing Returns” is a poignant exploration of deep-seated emotions, its nostalgic and intense vibes resonating with a profound depth that stirs the soul.
The track’s ability to tap into the universal human experience of longing shows Wilier’s artistry.
The epic and ethereal journey of “Feeling Numb, Pt.1” and “Pt.2” is breathtaking.
The minimalist yet meticulously crafted arrangements transport the listener to a limbo suspended in time and space.
In moments, the quality of Wilier’s composition evokes Hans Zimmer’s Interstellar soundtrack, sharing a similar ability to evoke to distant galaxies and profound emotional landscapes.
“Feel the Slowing of Time” captures the sensation of standing on the event horizon, where moments stretch into eternity. The track’s ethereal beauty and sense of weightlessness leave an indelible mark on the listener.
Each track on “Variations” is a masterpiece. In a world clamouring for peace and solace, Wilier’s music offers a sanctuary, a refuge where the soul can find solace and rejuvenation.

Superb!
Matt Wilier began improvising on piano at the age of 5, with no knowledge of music other than his own feelings and sensations. After practicing for a few years, it was at the music conservatory that he discovered technique and then classical music. From the age of 12, he would fall asleep listening to Keith Jarrett’s solo piano albums, including ‘The Köln Concert’ and ‘La Scala’.
During the same period, after having studied the Romantics (and Chopin’s rubato), he was captivated by impressionist music and became fascinated by the French movement ‘Les Six’. But ultimately, he considers ‘Gaspard de la Nuit’ by Maurice Ravel to be one of the most beautiful piano works. While retaining his initial desire for improvisation, he threw himself into minimalist and repetitive music, freeing himself from judgement and taking an interest in sonic resonances, frequencies and vibrations of the piano as proof of the passage of time.
In 2019, he released his first EP ‘Jours’, a collection of older improvised recordings, and chose to regularly release tracks resulting from his process of creation with the French label, Bruit Blanc.
