-About-
A second set of of mainly avant-garde, ambient-minimalist original instrumental compositions along with several other unique new interpretations of diverse, inexplicable musical historical fragments inspired from the Baroque, Romantic and 20th Century classical eras.. form this 2025 compilation for works largely produced, again, around mid-to-late 2010s by Rob Willow. The album merges the experimental with a more firm expressionism akin to the haphazard description as follows: a sequenced progression of small musical shards of odd scenes or colors to be viewed, heard as if on some strange imaginative journey on a some abstract train ride through a time-irrelevant, surreal landscape.

-About-
An 2026 compilation of experimental works, sequenced as a conceptual experience aka the titular 'Dark Opera.' Many of the works are additionally representative samples of extended full album that might further extend this 1 hour and 40 minute sound work.. These other albums were originally released as S.O.T.P. or like Rob Willows more classical-electronic works via SOTP / SwanOnThePond Recordings / SWANII at some point in the prior 2 decades. Dark Opera is comprised of original dark ambient, ambient, minimalism or sonorist works but also synth fragments and collaged experimental conceptual audio works.
