I removed the last two tracks I originally posted because I don't think they really fit in the "minimalism" category - Joona Toivanen Trio is more a jazz trio that has some beautiful minimalistic compositions, but they also often venture outside of that "framework".
Here are two tracks I've been wanting to post here for some time now, but it seems to be impossible to find the album from any streaming services (I have it on CD). They are by Tuomas Toivonen, from his album called New Album which was released already in 2006.

I snagged Steve Gunn & David Moore's new album Reflections Vol 1 - Let the Moon Be a Planet and have been listening today whilst in the empty office doing some catch up work this rainy, windy public holiday Monday. I think this is almost the perfect soundtrack for me right this very minute.

OkoNski is the band name of Steve Okonski who usually does keys for Durand Jones & the Indications. He has put together a trio (piano plus bass and drums) and put out a cracking little piano-driven, mellow jazzy album that is perfect for late at night contemplating life. The review I read dragged me in when they mentioned the closing number, Sunday, "which could be an instrumental outtake from Tom Waits' Blue Valentine".

Of my last 20 vinyls, this one is probably my favorite.

Catching up on a backlog of albums I downloaded over the past few months and listening to Jim Wallis' "In Huge Gesturing Loops" from last year. Another lovely background album perfect for a quiet workday in the office. Here's Parachute.
