2017 release. High Plains is the duo of Scott Morgan and Mark Bridges. Morgan, based in the Canadian Pacific Northwest, is predominantly known for his drifting, textured soundscapes released under the pseudonym Loscil. Bridges is an accomplished, classically-trained cellist residing in Madison, Wisconsin. The two met in Banff, Alberta, while they were there on residencies at the Banff Centre for the Arts in 2014. In early 2016, the duo embarked on a collaborative set of compositions in the oxygen thin air of Wyoming, spending two weeks holed up in a refurbished school house in the town of Saratoga, where this album was recorded. Inspired by Schubert's Die Winterreise and the rolling landscapes of their surroundings, the recordings evoke a shadowy, introspective and dizzying winter journey. Cinderland takes cues from classical, electronic and cinematic musical traditions but is mostly a product of the rugged, mythic landscape: vast and sprawling with a wild, uncertain edge.

"Cinderland" is a captivating album by High Plains, released in CD format through the renowned label Kranky / Cargo. This record showcases an evocative blend of modern classical and ambient soundscapes, crafted with cello, electronics, and field recordings that transport listeners into vast sonic landscapes inspired by the American West. The music is both meditative and cinematic, offering moments of introspection as well as sweeping grandeur. High Plains is a collaboration between cellist Mark Bridges and composer Scott Morgan (also known for his work as Loscil). Together, they have garnered critical acclaim for their ability to merge acoustic instrumentation with electronic textures seamlessly. Their previous works have been praised for their emotional depth and innovative approach to contemporary ambient music. Kranky / Cargo stands out in the independent music scene for its commitment to releasing groundbreaking experimental and ambient records since the 1990s. The label has played a pivotal role in shaping modern avant-garde sounds by supporting artists who push musical boundaries.
