about

“…finds the right balance between meditative and beautiful, so that when the listener finally drifts off, the images dancing around in his or her head will be enchanting rather than horrific. ‘Sleep/Health’ is a wonderful thing.”
FACT MAGAZINE


“……a careful curation of the duality of good spirits and bad distractions….. that you should carry with you like your lucky charm and your I.D.”
TINY MIXTAPES


“Riegler emits pure, elegant tones as part of a 34-minute lullaby codeine-cure….”
TOME TO THE WEATHERMACHINE


“Exquisite for its focus and exacting tonalities….. Gentle rhythms, lulling bells, and floating haze dare the listen not to enter their interior worlds.”
INTERNATIONAL TAPES


“…..difficult not to get caught up in his chiming twilight world and fill it out with visions from your own imagination. It invites you into your own interior, even if sometimes you may not notice.”
CRAWLSPACE


“Two beautiful cuts, exactly seventeen minutes each, of hazy ambience shimmering like the sun bursting through a cloudbank.”

Heinz Riegler investigates the sedative and therapeutic agents of sound on SLEEP HEALTH. Responding to an extensive bout of insomnia, the 34 minute lullaby was recorded and mixed over a succession of nights during an extensive artist-in-residence stay in the Blackall Range, Australia.
 
SLEEP HEALTH seeks to be a utility, a thing of tangible purpose. Initially intended solely as an audio sleeping pill, the recording took on the additional motif of a long distance medicinal instrument.

SLEEP HEALTH explores dream states, slumber, resting and feeling better.
