Culture Break: Amoeba, "Pivot"

Amoeba is an experimental duo comprised of composer Robert Rich and guitarist Rick Davies. I first came across them while pursuing the music of Rich, who has had a somewhat interesting career. He's generally regarded as a composer of ambient music, but it goes a little beyond that.

This piece is somewhat livelier than the selections on their first album, Watchful, but it has a lot of the same elements.
