Nathan Davis "writes music that deals deftly and poetically with timbre and
sonority" (NYTimes) - Inspired by natural processes and acoustic phenomena, his
works reveal and exaggerate subtle complexities of sound, forming an
architectural sound-world through which the listener travels in experiencing a
piece.

In Neutral Buoyant, Nathan turns his attention to the bowed psaltery (an
American folk instrument) in a series of composed improvisations made with and
without electronic processing. Approaching the psaltery as a glorious collection
of monochords, Nathan employs violin bows, electromagnetic bows of different
kinds, and guitar slides to activate the harmonics of its 32 open strings.
Evoking ambient works by Eno and Laraaji, and spectral soundscapes of Saariaho,
these six pieces display undulating drones, prismatic shifts of harmony, and
microtonal vibrancy, creating motion while suspending time."
