Don Slepian, a composer, performer, and music technologist, is celebrated as a pioneer in the ambient and new age music movement, blending classical influences with cutting-edge electronic techniques. From serving as artist-in-residence at Bell Laboratories and Synthesizer Soloist with the Honolulu Symphony to performing at esteemed venues like Lincoln Center, WNYC’s New Sounds, and the Centre Pompidou, his career spans decades of innovation and acclaim. He also recorded albums for the electronic music labels Fortuna and Audion in the 1980s.

Recently, he has sold out shows at the Philosophical Research Society, accompanied therapeutic psychedelic ceremonies, lectured at Stanford University, appeared on Dublab radio, and is preparing a tour celebrating the forty-fifth anniversary of his seminal record Sea of Bliss. Now based in the Pocono Mountains, Slepian continues to compose, perform, and build innovative instruments, cementing his legacy as a visionary in the field.
