Stars of the Lid are a band specializing in drone-based ambient music. They list among their influences minimalist and electronic composers such as Arvo Pärt, Zbigniew Preisner, Gavin Bryars, and Henryk Górecki, as well as Talk Talk (both bands have tracks named "Taphead"), post-rock artists Labradford, and ambient innovator Brian Eno. Their music largely consists of beatless soundscapes, composed of droning, effects-treated guitars along with piano, strings, and horns; volume swells and feedback fill the gap of rhythmic instruments, providing dynamic movement within the songs.

Here is a description and some reviews of Glockenspiel.. Glockenspiel started as the title for Adrian Dollemore’s cd-r collections of minature bedroom experiments using tapes, electronics and guitars through chains of effects who then progressed to playing with Steve D’Enton (old friend of the ’sHRiMP & ex-Quickspace sticksman) on drum kit - Steve’s “direct but tactile style driving straight through the x-axis of Adrian’s skyward guitar, as cymbals and hi-hats delicately ring and splash over his motorik anchor.
