Happy #PianoDay2025!
To mark the occasion, here's a piano EP from Ben Bell:

Covering the first eleven years of Patchwork Studios, this "pay what you choose" (including nothing) sampler is an excellent place to discover the bands and albums released on the label: patchworkstudios.bandcamp.co…
(Spoiler: they've all got me on keyboards at least in some form ;-)
Another good review, this time from Lazland:
"very warm and special indeed ... a classic of its kind"
